Installation to Windows 11

Jul 08, 2023 at 09:39

Just bought a new PC after 13 years and got Windows 11 as well.

My question is where do I put the fonts into this new OS?

I don’t have Windows 11 but why not try this which works in previous versions of windows

- Download the font you want to install from Dafont
- As fonts downloaded here are in ZIP archives, double click on the ZIP and extract the TTF or OTF (your choice ss to which) to any folder in your computer where you want to save the TTF/OTF
- once the TTF or OTF has been extracted, double click on it and it should open in Windows default font viewer. You will see an INSTALL button on the upper right corner. Wait a few seconds and you’re done.
- open your program and see if the font is now listed in the font selection menu

Windows will allow you to install both the TTF and OTF at the same time but you don’t really need to do that and it’s a waste of resources

If you still have problems with font installation, the FAQ link above will give you more answers to your question

As for your question about fonts, in Windows 11, you can install new fonts by going to Settings > Personalization > Fonts. From there, you can drag and drop your font files, or you can still do it the old-school way by right-clicking the font file and choosing "Install."

Thank you Enmmabern for this tip. After scrolling through all of my available fonts I found that the fonts that I wanted to install were already there.

It seems unlike other Windows versions Windows 11 has everything in it that I had in my other OS.

Having said that, should I need to use this way you have provided me the fastest way possible for installation.

Again Thank you
