Windows 10: A font I installed no longer can be deleted, appears on my browser at times.

Hello! I need assistance with this issue I've encountered fairly recently. I've attempted to search fixes but could not find anything that fits my designated issue.I installed a font called "Helvetica Neue" yesterday because it was a font I wanted to use. The font didn't really work too well with what I was needing it for, so I attempted to delete it, and it no longer has a delete button from the only way I can access it, Font settings.

Deleting Fonts from Windows 10 that don't appear in regedit

I have a "Bliss" font that I use on other systems and is licensed for use on my Surface Pro with Windows 10 - Version 1809

It is currently in my fonts list, but unfortunately the Bliss-Regular.otf file I installed appears to be conflicting with a BLISS-Regular_01.otf version of the same name font, and it's not presenting properly.

I've tried the simple steps to uninstalling/deleting the problem file, but I can only delete the new file, and the old file remains due to the 'in use' issue.

I've attempted the steps to deleting the file from the registry; however, the Bliss font doesn't even exist in the registry.

It doesn't appear in either of these areas:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts

This sure has been a time-killer. I hope I can receive some help here. Thank you.
