Clock has weird square separating symbol instead of usual colon when Windows system font has been changed

[anthony75smith75]

If I have used Winaero or another app to change the Windows system font then when I now move the taskbar to the left or right hand sides so that it is vertical instead of horizontal the clock gets broken. A weird square separating symbol instead of the usual colon appears within. The actual clock continues to function normally but visually looks broken. Have checked all options in Explorer Patcher and can't see any relevant settings. How can we get the clock back to normal with the new bold easier to read system font also intact?
