Oriental Characters included

Could someone please tell me what lever or button I need push or switch, to free these characters to a new home… They appear when Rhino 8 starts up.

Hello- can you please run SystemInfo in Rhino and copy/paste the results here?

This happens with an expired Bongo WIP build. Download the latest Bongo WIP and you’ll no longer see those characters.

Sorry for the delay, here is my system info:

Like @nathanletwory said, you have an expired Bongo 3 wip installed. A new wip was released not long ago: update to that and the coded message will be no more.
