Discussion

Somehow, your system is missing a font Windows uses to render many screens in a variety of 32-bit applications. This font is included with Windows, so somehow, someone or some application uninstalled this font.

Resolution

To fix this issue, you must reinstall the missing font (MS-Sans Serif). 

Note
You must be signed in as a local system administrator (or have their credentials) to install the missing font. If you are not a system admin, contact your IT Department to complete the font installation.

You can download the font here: https://downloads.oncenter.com/Downloads/support/SSERIFE.FON

Save this file to your Downloads folder.

Close On-Screen Takeoff and Quick Bid.

Locate the file SSERIFE.FON in your Downloads folder...

Installing missing font

Right-click on the file and select "Install for all users" - follow the prompts to reinstall the MS Sans Serif font.
