Even if it's not working anywhere, even if it's been moved or deleted from the windows font folder, windows considers it "installed" because it's on this list.Īnd if you try to install a font that isn't working, but it's on that list. If the font doesn't exist in the windows font folder, but exists in the registry list, windows thinks it's installed. then you won't see the font in your applications. If a font exists in the font folder, but the registry list didn't get updated. What I figured out is this - when you install a new font, windows copies the font file to the windows font folder, and at the same time updates a list of available fonts in the windows registry. the installed version of the font is different from some alternate version you're trying to install.windows shows some members of a font family but not all of them.you have a ton of duplicated files in the windows font folder, ending in _0, or _1, etc.you say "yes, replace the installed font" but still don't see it showing up anywhere.the font says it's already installed, but it's not.the font is in the folder, but not available in word or adobe Indesign or whatever.Sorry, this reply is really long, but I think it clears up pretty much ALL windows font-related issues like this. So I thought I'd sign in and try to do that. This is an old topic but it comes up on google searches a lot, and I can see the whole issue (and fix) is not completely explained.
