Fix windows 7 explorer displaying square boxes

I had to re-install Windows 7 recently.  After installation, my Chinese file names are all square boxes in the windows explorer.
I searched online, some suggested deleting the file "C:\Windows\System32\FNTCACHE.DAT". This did not work for me.
The solution is actually this:
Open control panel-> Apperance and Personalization, select under "Fonts", "Change Font Settings".
Uncheck "Hide fonts based on language settings".   Reboot.
