Cannot find 'Install new fonts'
Fonts folder has lost its system properties.
This will be obvious if viewing the fonts folder. You will not have the names and the "Install new font" option under file. If so: Check the protection in Properties on folder c:\windows\fonts If it is not shown with a check in System, then you cannot install new fonts. It should also be protected, so you may not be able to alter from Explorer. In DOS mode, (or from Start-Run) use the command attrib +s c:\windows\fonts Reboot and all should be OK or... Use TweakUI Tweak UI 1.33 for Windows 2000, Windows NT, Windows Millennium Edition, Windows 98 or Windows 95. Details at: (may wrap) http://www.microsoft.com/ntworkstati.../NTTweakUI.asp Download at: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsme/guide/tweakui.exe The system attribute is normally the problem and the DOS fix is the solution in the majority of the last few hundred responses I have made to similar problems. The Fonts folder will not function as a special folder without the system attribute. The other common problem is that the hidden desktop.ini is missing or corrupt and TweakUI will fix that. There is a third problem mentioned here but, in my experience, this one is uncommon. (Fontext.dll file may be missing or damaged) Missing Menu Commands in the Fonts Folder http://support.microsoft.com/support.../q133/7/25.asp ....Alan -- Alan Edwards, MS MVP W95/98 Systems In microsoft.public.win98.apps, "Binod" wrote: After installing win98 i tried to install new fonts but cannot find 'Install New Fonts' menu under File menu in 'C:\windows\fonts' window. please help me |
