Windows 10: Font I installed not showing in photoshop

I'm using windows 10 and photoshop 2019. I am trying to install a font and it doesn't show up in photoshop. I drag and drop the OTF font in c:\windows\fonts, and I even restart computer, but it doesn't show up. When I double click the font to install, it installs in c:\users\fonts\appdata\local\microsoft\windows\fonts and still doesn't show up in photoshop.

Picture of the paths they are being saved to on computer -

My questions are -

1) what are differences between these 2 file paths for installing fonts?

2) how do I properly install fonts in photoshop.

Photoshop Fonts Menu Truncated After Windows Update?

The latest big Windows update (which might be 1803...I'm not sure) has caused a weird issue: The font selection menu in Photoshop (CS, ver. 8) is truncated. The list is arranged alphabetically, for the most part, and it now ENDS abruptly somewhere around
the letter M. I have something like 3,000 fonts installed, so being unable to access two-thirds of them is a BIG problem.

Has anyone else noticed this issue? And are there any suggestions for a fix? Thanks!

not all fonts installed on the system (C:\Windows\Fonts) are shown


picture 1 : on Photoshop fonts menu the fonts name are shown but not exhibited
all fonts on this list I am missing used to be inside C:\windows\fonts





Picture 2 : C:\windows\fonts Those fonts listed on Photoshop fonts list are no longer inside fonts folder (?!) ....
... and it was not me who uninstalled them





I tried to do the same than you inside the Powershell (PS C:\WINDOWS\System> 1s c:\windows\fonts ) ,
however the term 1s was not recognized as cmdlet , function , etc etc ;
Thanks
