Create Backup Fonts
Learn How to Install Fonts


Create backup fonts , Its always worth backing up Windows fonts for a couple of reasons, if your computer breaks or files become corrupt, you will be very pleased you did, apart from the standard Windows fonts, purchasing custom fonts can be expensive. As as many fonts are downloaded, they are usually only stored in one place and can easily be lost.

If you have to restore or rebuild your computer and you lose the custom Fonts , of course any where you previously used them will be affected, Windows will then substitute the custom font.

Creating backup fonts is pretty straight forward , we have a couple of ways to do this, the first is to just copy the whole fonts directory , this is the easiest way, but that means extra storage space.

The Fonts folder is around 60mb , most of these are Fonts that come with Windows, so if you have limited space you might want to just backup the custom ones.

All fonts should be stored in C:WindowsFonts , you can access the Fonts folder/directory through Windows Explorer , My Computer or just type Fonts from the Start / Run menu

You should then see the fonts directory


From here you can copy fonts you wish to backup,

To copy them

You can either select the font using the right mouse button and drag it to where you would like to backup, now when you release the mouse button it will ask you if you wish to move or copy Font .

Noteif you move the Font it will not be available to the system. Make sure you use the right mouse button as opposed to the left otherwise it will automatically move the font and you will have the same problem as above.

If you wish to copy the whole fonts directory this can be found in C:\Windows\Fonts from here you can backup the folder like any directory.

If at any time you wish to add new fonts to your system, type fonts from the start menu and now from the File menu select the option install new font .

Now just point towards the location of the font you wish to install from .
