  1. Trouble Getting Rid of Segoe UI Font


    Anyone have any idea what's going on here?

    I customize the font on my Windows 10 laptop by going into the registry (Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts), and removing the value data from the key for each font I want to modify. I then create a new string value (in Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontSubstitutes) for each font I removed the value data for, and I add "FuturaHandwritten" as the value data (that's the font I like to use). That way, EVERYTHING on my PC appears in the FuturaHandwritten font (except, of course, the few fonts I don't modify - those are still available for use in programs like WordPerfect; MS Word, etc). Until now.

    I reformatted my SSDs last week, and reloaded Windows. Now, I'm having trouble completely deleting the Segoe family of fonts. Before, when I removed the value data for each Segoe font (there are currently twenty different Segoe fonts listed in the registry), ALL Segoe fonts would no longer appear in C:\Windows\Fonts. They would also be gone from Control Panel\Fonts, as well as PC Settings\Personalizations\Fonts.

    Now, however, they're all gone from everywhere EXCEPT PC Settings\Personalization\Fonts (from my understanding, Control Panel\Fonts only shows fonts in C:\Windows\Fonts, but PC Settings\Personalization\Fonts shows fonts in multiple locations, because, say, fonts you would purchase from the Microsoft Store aren't installed in C:\Windows\Fonts), and programs like Office 365 and Norton Security are still using Segoe UI (that's the ONLY Segoe font that still appears in PC Settings\Personalization\Fonts). So, obviously, Segoe UI is still installed somewhere on my PC, other than in C:\Windows\Fonts.

    Anyone know where (FYI - I've also deleted the back-up of Segoe UI from the C:\Windows\WinSxS folder)?

    This is new behavior with Windows 10. Previously, when I deleted the registry values for the Segoe family of fonts, they didn't show up ANYWHERE. I'm not sure what has changed. Thanks.

  2. Missing Segoe UI Font


    I was messing around with a program called Weinaero Tweaker, which lets you change elements of Windows UI like the color of title bars and the size of fonts etc. Anyway I tried using a couple of different fonts as my system font with the tool, and then decided to just go back to the standard "Segoe UI Regular", only to discover it was no longer listed in font selection drop down box in Winaero Tweaker. I then checked Control Panel\Fonts\Segoe UI, and sure enough Segoe UI Regular and Segoe UI Bold are both missing.

    Where can I get a copy of the Segoe UI fonts that come with Windows 10 to replace the ones I lost? I tried running sfc /scannow hoping that would fix it, but it didn't work. I also tried running windows update to no avail either. I am download the Windows 10 installation media right now, because I read you could install fonts off the disc, but I haven't been able to find any information on how to do so.
