How to add new fonts to Windows 10
Despite the fact that Windows 10 has plenty of font styles, you may need to add new fancy fonts into your PC.
You have no problem because, in this tutorial, I will show how to add any new font into Windows 10 and use it in your projects.
However, there are several ways you can add new fonts in Windows 10. I’ll go through each option one after the other here in this article.
Option 1: Using the Microsoft Windows Store
Using the Microsoft Windows Store, you can add new fonts into Windows 10 that will appear on your various Windows applications including MS Office apps.
The steps are outlined below:
- Connect your PC to the internet since you are going to download the fonts you want to install.
- Go to Settings on your PC
To open settings on your PC, type settings in the search bar and press the Enter key.
- Click on Fonts > Get more fonts in Microsoft Store
After clicking on Get more fonts, the Microsoft Store will open with a list of available fonts in the store.
- Browse through the new fonts. Once you find the font you want to add, click on it to go to the Download page.
- When you get to the download page, click on the Get button to download the font.
Of course, some of the fonts aren’t free. Some of them require you to make a little contribution before you can download it. If you don’t have a budget for that, keep exploring for the free fonts instead.
After completing the above steps, the downloaded font family will be available in your Windows 10 apps such as Word and the other office apps like Excel or PowerPoint.
Option 2: Using the Font Installer
Microsoft Store doesn’t have lots of fonts. Therefore, you may not get the font you are looking for.
However, you can download whatever new font you want from other sources and install it into Windows 10.
Obey the steps below:
- Download the font you wish to add to Windows 10.

- After downloading the new font you want to add, browse to the folder that has the font file.
Note: The font may be in a zip file. If that’s the case, you should unzip the file first.
- Right-Click on the font file. A shortcut menu will appear, select Install or Install for all users.
After applying all the steps above, the installed font will now be available in your list of fonts in Windows 10 and the other office apps.
These are the various ways you may add new fonts into Windows 10.
For any reason, if the font you install is not displaying where you need it, I advise that you restart your PC.
