Exactly.
I thought that my original post had sufficient clarity. My "tag" maybe would reinforce that. I do know my way around computers in some detail, in fact Windows 7/Vista/XP/98/95/3.11 as well as CP/M, Linux BBC OS and one or two others.
And I do know how to remove a font ot two.
But I'm always happy to learn more. I read many more posts than I make.
I did mention a couple of those specific system fonts of the Batang variety.
And the point about this is that it's my computer and I get to choose what I put on my computer, except that Microsoft are telling me that I have to lumber
my computer with
their baggage. *
And I don't want it.
*PS I actually like Microsoft. Anyone old enough to have experienced CP/M will know what a relief MSDOS was.
