Comment (by robertp2014):

 This bug is concurrent with a bug in Google Chrome Canary that causes
 fuzzy unreadable text in right click boxes and apparently crashes
 wordpress 4.5 sites throwing a Snap error.  The following I found in Step
 1 on the Google Forum fixed my Wordpress 4.5 problem.

 Here's what i did in steps:


 1) windows search and type ClearType , you'll get "Adjust ClearType Text"
 , click on it, then UnCheck "Turn on ClearType" don't cancel or close it
 yet, click on next and continue to "tune all your monitors" once you're
 done with all that, restart canary chrome and check if context menu
 problem is gone, if not, go to step 2




 2) type chrome://flags/ in ur canary address bar, it will take you to a
 page with features, look for DirectWrite and enable it (if it was already
 enabled, then disable it, restart canary and re-enable it again). Now the
 context menu and bookmarks font issue should be gone, but the programs
 names in your computer or websites might have fuzzyness with their fonts,
 so go to step 3.


 3) if the text in websites still continue to look blurry/jaggy then go
 back to windows search and type ClearType and enable it again.
