Hello

I am currently setting up my new computer, and found very weird mangled text in the Group Policy Editor.
It is still readable, but it definitively looks like it shouldn't be there.


The only affected section is "Windows Security" in
Local Computer Policy > Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components

The computer is brand new, the OS is brand new (USB drive from a sealed retail box).
I didn't get the time to install things that could have come with viruses, not have I installed anything that should be able to tweak the system in any way.

It's readable, so I don't if I it happens to simply be a bug or an error with the Windows build.
But I'd like to know what is happening, and if I need to worry about it.


I also found this forum post from 6 days ago detailing the exact same issue.

System version:
Windows 10 Pro, Version 1909 (OS Build 18363.1139)
