Found a solution here which worked for me:

Open cmd.exe and copy all files from c:\windows\fonts to some other folder (c:\fonts for me).
Open regedit and navigate to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts
Delete all font registrations (a little scary).

Open Fonts in Control Panel.
Drag all fonts from c:\fonts to the Control Panel Fonts window (this re-registers all valid fonts).
Restart the computer.

I resolved the issue with the following steps;

  • Backup your Font folder in C:/windows.
  • Delete the contents of the Fonts folder, skipping fonts that can't be deleted.
  • Run the Installer of Visual Studio (or the Visual Studio update) as Administrator
  • Restore any fonts after the install has completed.
