Hello Akhil

Thankyou for this suggestion and the time you have put in. I tried this,
and a few other workarounds from a few other forums, and they have all
failed for me. The only solution has been to roll back the recently
updated 'libmutter' package, as per comment #17 in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/1892440 using the
command:

sudo apt install libmutter-6-0=3.36.1-3ubuntu3
gir1.2-mutter-6=3.36.1-3ubuntu3

the post suggests to also hold the update using:

sudo apt-mark hold libmutter-6-0

I haven't needed to use this command, but I imagine any future update
will have to be checked for a solution if this isn't run. In any case,
this has provided a complete solution, with the login screen now also
back to normal.

  UI bug - system fonts enlarge after every reboot

Status in mutter package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I had my system fonts scaled to a FACTOR of 0.90 using GNOME TWEAKS.But after 
a RECENT UPDATE
  (which upgraded the following packages : gir1.2-mutter-6:amd64 
(3.36.3-0ubuntu0.20.04.1, 3.36.4-0ubuntu0.20.04.2), libcurl4:amd64 
(7.68.0-1ubuntu2.1, 7.68.0-1ubuntu2.2), libmutter-6-0:amd64 
(3.36.3-0ubuntu0.20.04.1, 3.36.4-0ubuntu0.20.04.2), rsyslog:amd64 
(8.2001.0-1ubuntu1, 8.2001.0-1ubuntu1.1), mutter-common:amd64 
(3.36.3-0ubuntu0.20.04.1, 3.36.4-0ubuntu0.20.04.2), apport:amd64 
(2.20.11-0ubuntu27.6, 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.8), python3-apport:amd64 
(2.20.11-0ubuntu27.6, 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.8), xz-utils:amd64 (5.2.4-1, 
5.2.4-1ubuntu1), apport-gtk:amd64 (2.20.11-0ubuntu27.6, 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.8), 
liblzma5:amd64 (5.2.4-1, 5.2.4-1ubuntu1), liblzma5:i386 (5.2.4-1, 
5.2.4-1ubuntu1), curl:amd64 (7.68.0-1ubuntu2.1, 7.68.0-1ubuntu2.2), 
python3-problem-report:amd64 (2.20.11-0ubuntu27.6, 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.8), 
libcurl3-gnutls:amd64 (7.68.0-1ubuntu2.1, 7.68.0-1ubuntu2.2), 
libcurl3-gnutls:i386 (7.68.0-1ubuntu2.1, 7.68.0-1ubuntu2.2), mutter:amd64 
(3.36.3-0ubuntu0.20.04.1, 3.36.4-0ubuntu0.20.04.2)) -
  the fonts automatically scale up after every reboot and ruin the look of my 
desktop.I had never encountered this problem before.It can be fixed by manually 
scaling back the fonts in GNOME TWEAKS after every reboot , which is annoying.I 
really would love to have this fixed.
