Hello

How can I redirect the c:\windows\fonts folder to another location so that
applications uses the fonts on that new location?

So I can manage one font folder for a lot of users.

Greetings ToW

This registry key is where you can change the location of the fonts folder:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User
Shell Folders

You need to create a new string value called "Fonts" (minus the quotes), and
for its value, create the path to the folder you want to use.
