Windows 10: fonts installed but not showing

Hi


I've installed a font family - HK Grotesk - but some of the iterations, ie BOLD, aren't showing when I go to use them in Word. This has happened with other fonts I've installed. I've tried removing the fonts and reinstalling, restarting the pc, downloading from a different site. I can see the font in the control panel / font folder.


I've looked online and can see numerous people with exactly the same problem, but I can't see the solution.


Thanks
