How to Install Fonts in Windows 11

Font files are just like regular files: they can be downloaded from websites and shared between computers via flash drives, CDs, etc.

There are many places to get fonts online, including free sources like Google Fonts, DaFont, and FontSpace. As we'll see below, Windows 11 also has its own built-in method for getting fonts.

If you have a font file, such as one with the file extension OTF or TTF, you can’t just drop it anywhere on your computer and expect it to be usable. A font will not be recognized by Windows 11, and by font extension programs like Word, until it is properly installed.
