Can't install font solution under Win XP

  

I used to be unable to install fonts under XP. I found this article on the Internet. I can use this method to install it correctly. I hope to share it here. Under the xp system, many friends may have encountered such a situation: when installing fonts and copying fonts to C:\\WINDOWS\\Fonts, there should be no "install new fonts" prompts, and even copy into folders. The font cannot be used. There is no option to install the new font in the file menu under C:\\WINDOWS\\Fonts. I also unfortunately encountered such a situation some time ago, the first reaction is google and baidu. However, the search results are either a 98 system solution or a reinstallation system. The latter is obviously too much trouble. The desktop.ini file under the 98 system mentioned by the former is not found under the font folder of the xp system. For a while, I can't think of it. When I was preparing to reinstall the system, I finally found the ultimate solution: Create a new file under the C:\\WINDOWS\\Fonts folder, “desktop.ini”, open it with Notepad, enter The following content (without quotes): <;[.ShellClassInfo] UICLSID= & rdquo;, after saving, the "desktop.ini" file attribute can be changed to read-only hidden. This problem is solved perfectly. Principle: C:\\WINDOWS\\Fonts under xp system is a special folder. Even if all the files in the tool-folder option are selected, the configuration file under this folder “desktop.ini” can still not be displayed. The open method can only be displayed by entering C:\\WINDOWS\\Fonts\\desktop.ini in the address bar. So when dealing with the problem, I did not expect this configuration file to be lost. Many friends often search all desktops.ini and then delete them when optimizing the system. Therefore, deleting the file by mistake can cause the font to be unable to be installed. The final solution to the problem is very simple, but it is quite hard to think about starting from this direction. Just like the first story of setting up an egg. I hope this article can help some friends who have encountered this problem.
