How do I correct system fonts that are suddenly italic?

My Windows 10 system appears to have a problem with fonts. In a number of places the font being displayed is italic where it should not be. For instance, in Google Hangouts:

No idea why this is italic

I also note that the same problem occurs in my Angular Material app that I am building, which leasds me to believe that it has something to do with the Roboto font?

Anyone have any ideas why italics are appearing in strange places?

If you suspect a problem with the Roboto font, the simplest solution is to delete
it and re-install:

Open Control Panel > Fonts

Select the Roboto variants you see, note down their names, then right-click
one and choose Delete

Download the Roboto font

Unzip the file roboto.zip

Select the Roboto variants that you wish to install and drag them to the
window of Control Panel > Fonts
