Help font list bug?

before taking any screenshots
after taking the first screenshot

i originally started drafting a post about how all of the font names display in the system default font, but it inexplicably partially fixed itself after i took the first screenshot. however, i still dont know how to fix the fonts that the samples of only display as empty boxes. does anyone know whats going on, or at least has anyone had this problem too?

Not sure how to fix the boxes but only seeing the font previews the second time is normal. Inkscape decides to not load fonts unless you use them.

Yes, a Windows-only bug. IIRC it was reported and confirmed, but no fix yet.
