File Contains Gibberish Where English Text Should Be

There are many times when I open FMP only to find that my file contains absolute gibberish where English text should be.  I always have to reboot my machine, and then I must logon to FMP first before any other applications.  If I open FMP after I have been working for a while in other applications, I get the gibberish.  I would like to include a screenshot so you can see what I mean, but I don't see where to attach a file.  I just want to know if this happens to anyone else, and whether there is a known issue and/or solution.  This can be very frustrating when I need to quickly get into my database for something, and I'm in the middle of a dozen other things as well.  😬

Thanks in advance for your help...
