0:12
to easily change the font settings on

Windows 11 to personalize your desktop

0:22
to use and note down its name you can
0:24
also install new fonts from the
0:25
Microsoft store I'm going to use the
0:33
next open the registry editor you can do
0:35
this by pressing the Windows key plus r

to use and copy the value data name
3:05
take the copied named and replace the

text here with it ensure it includes the
3:09
file extension then save
3:25

4:27
significant difference from the original

font so it might be difficult to notice

system font simply access the backups
