installing fonts

I have a lot of fonts not stored in the Fonts folder. In Windows XP, I could navigate to that outside folder and easily find the font I needed to install. Now in Windows 10, the fonts are listed by their file name. For instance, I want
to load Algerian, but the file name is A039000D. Is there a way to have Win 10 list those outside fonts by their
FONT names instead of file name.

 

Deleting non-Latin fonts in Windows 10 Home


Thanks for the suggestion, but, sadly, it does not. In addition, I have gone to the Font Management setting and followed Microsoft's directions explicitly. Win 10 will NOT let me delete any installed font (except ones that I have installed myself), and it will NOT let me hide any font at all. The 'Hide' setting says it will hide the font from applications, but EVERY application that offers a choice of fonts, whether from Microsoft (Office, Word, Wordpad, Notepad, etc.) or third parties (such as OpenOffice) shows ALL the fonts listed in the Font Management listing. Every. Single. One.

There was a script for removing the non-Latin fonts from Win 7 that automated the process. That script does not work in Win 10. Is there one that does?

Thanks in advance for any help/
