Fonts and Windows 10

Hi Paul,

There are a lot of ways on how to choose the  font of your choice. Here's a way on how to install fonts on Windows 10:

1. Choose the font that you want to install.
2. Download your font (these are often .ttf files)
3. Right-click on the downloaded font and click Install.

Here's how to check if the font is installed on your PC:

1. Type fonts on the search bar and press Enter.
2. You should see your fonts on the font control panel. If not, on the search box type the font name to find it.

Update us with the status. We will be glad to assists you.

Hello Justine,

According to Windows these fonts are installed already. The trouble is they are not in the Fonts folder and I can't get any of them into it, even by clicking 'Yes' when asked if I want to replace them. But thank you for replying so promptly.

Thank you for the response.

If that's the case, we recommend performing a clean boot on your device to start Windows by using minimal set of drivers. After that, check if you'll be able to choose the font that you like.

Get back to us if you need further assistance.

Hello Justine, forgive me for not replying before. On joining the Community, I was glad to hear, as a novice myself, that it ‘welcomed novice users’ as well as experts and others. And I subsequently read more than once, thanks to the link you kindly provided, the instructions ‘How to perform a clean boot’. But I also read the following: We strongly recommend that you do not use the System Configuration utility to change the advanced boot options on the computer unless a Microsoft support engineer directs you to do this. Doing this may make the computer unusable. And in view of this warning from Microsoft itself (and the ‘unless’ clause notwithstanding), I felt, again as a novice, that this was a procedure beyond my competence, involving a risk I shouldn’t take.

But that isn’t the reason for my silence, which is that my state of health this last fortnight has prevented me from dealing with this matter as with many others. Please accept my apologies, and my thanks for the trouble you have gone to on my account.

Thank you Carlos. My problem with the Fonts folder continues to be what I have stated it to be twice before (September 2). The fonts already listed in the folder, however, remain unaffected.
