Unable to change a sans-serif font in Pop OS
 
Hello, I'm running Pop Os 20.04 and I was changing different fonts on my system but one of the sans serif fonts is stuck on a certain font.

This is how my fonts are displaying currently, https://imgur.com/a/ipSHbjj


How can I change the font that is displaying in the search bar?

This doesn't only affect Chromium but other random applications too. (i'm also unsure of how to find the name of this font) https://imgur.com/a/EwzCv1R

I'm not able to change my fonts through Appearance. I'm new to Linux so I installed many different desktop environments and changed fonts for each environment but now this font is being used no matter what environment I use. Is there any way to show all of my actively used fonts for my system in a terminal?

The Fonts page on Debian Wiki may be of some help in locating the problematic font.

Open a terminal and play around with fc-match.
I'd start with
Code:

fc-match sans
Other likely candidates: helvetica, any microsoft font, ...
