Bored with Windows’ built-in personalization settings and want to try something new? Then it’s worth changing the font on your Windows 11 PC.

Unfortunately, there is no easy way to change the default font on the latest version of Windows. However, it is possible to do so with a fairly handy workaround. Let's get started.
