NOW ALL MY FONTS ARE GONE!!!

[hellmuthsole]

I recently had problems with installing a True Type Font on my machine. I followed some advice I received here (deleting the ttfcache file under safe mode) and it worked fine. However, I did this again and forgot that I was in safe mode and reinstalled the font from there. Now everytime I startup my machine, instead of the 1,000 fonts I have, it turns out I only have the six basic windows fonts (no true type). I delete the ttf cache like before, but now it is of no use.


HELP!!!

Hey there again,

I think what probably happened is due to the amount of fonts you have, and all the recent alterations, the registry key that lists TTF's has become corrupted.

Here's an page on how to fix it.

If you have 1000 fonts you are right at the limit for win95/98. When you get this straightened out you should really consider parting with some.
