Good morning

I want to install my fonts on machines dedicated to my users.

Under W10, it was possible, when installing fonts, to install them for everyone (with administrator rights)

I no longer have the case under W11 Do you know how I can proceed?

THANKS

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

    Do you want to install fonts for specific users? Usually, fonts are installed to the system-level font directory (C:\Windows\Fonts), so that the installed fonts are effective for all users, including users with administrator rights and other ordinary rights.

    If you want to install fonts for a specific user, you need to create a "Fonts" folder in that specific user's personal folder (such as C:\Users\username), and then put the font files installed for that user into this dedicated in the font directory.

    I hope the information above is helpful.

    Best Regards,

    Yanhong Liu
