As you can see below in the image, when I use PuTTY it displays these unreadable characters. I have been Googling forever but not yet found the answer, so I thought maybe someone on SO knows this. All settings are unchanged in this program. I have tried many SSH clients; all do this. Is this something with Windows?

It looks like one (or perhaps more) of the following:
If the text displays OK when cut and pasted into Notepad, it confirms this. Set PuTTY to use the same font and encoding as Notepad (at least initially).
Since everything works at a different location you probably need to copy settings from there and use a Font that works in Notepad.
To see Putty's Font, Right click the top left icon in Putty Window title-bar
Then select
Change Settings ...
If mRemoteNG is getting in the way of seeing Putty settings, stop using mRemoteNG until you have everything working in plain unadorned standalone normal unviolated Putty.
