I don't recall that issue when switching to Windows 11.

What do you normally see for the encoding? I see charset=ISO-8859-1

Normally the browsers should detect the page encoding (you used to be able to set it in the browser but looks like Chrome stopped doing that a while ago).

If a page is encoded in ISO-8859-1 but then is tried to be displayed as UTF-8 then the non breaking space character will be displayed as the capital A with the circumflex (Â) and then a space, which looks like what's happening to you.

I don't believe the forum software supports UTF-8. I can edit the template to change it but that might reverse the problem or result in other errors or even login problems depending on how some data is stored in the database.
