[1809, ou] Installing Fonts Per Machine

[free780]

Apologies if this has been stated in other posts.

 

If you want to script an install of fonts on Windows Server 2019 or Windows 10 1809. Older scripts may not work as the default in Windows is now to install fonts per-user. So if you use SCCM the SYSTEM account is used fonts wont install for all users.

 

You need this in a Powershell script to deploy fonts on a PC level.

 

 

Copy-Item -Force "\\\\free3of9.ttf" "C:\Windows\Fonts"New-ItemProperty -Force "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts" -Name "Free 3 of 9 Regular (TrueType)" -Value "C:\Windows\Fonts\free3of9.ttf" -Verbose

You could also package them up into an MSI using EMCO MSI package creator. We have packed up all our fonts into an MSI for easier deployment.
