Chinese filenames in Windows 10 (English version) are displayed in what appaers to some variant of MS Gothic, and they look absolutely fucking horrible. Installing more fonts or language packs was useless. I tried HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontLink\SystemLink\Segoe UI and moved MS UI Gothic all the way down, but that didn't seem to do shit. I also tried sabotaging HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts\MS Gothic & MS UI Gothic & MS PGothic (TrueType) by giving it an invalid value, but that didn't seem to do shit either. In the end, I took a wholesale approach and simply replaced the Segoe UI family with the Microsoft YaHei family (see fonts.reg), Microsoft YaHei isn't pretty either, but at least it's tolerable.
