Hi,

I am trying to change my fonts. I have changed all of them except for one (shown outlined in image).

It does not seem to be listed in the item list drop down panel. Does anyone know what its name is or where to find it? And does anyone know how to change the fonts in Windows Live Mail?

Thanks.

Thanksfor your reply.

I looked at the tutorial but as it seems others have the smae problem with Windows 7. It doesn't fix all of them.

Backup the Registry 1st http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/4230-registry-backup-restore.html

Download the 2 .reg files below 1 to change the fonts the other is for restoring the fonts to default.

Right click on Set_New_Default_Font.reg and click on Edit, on the Open file box click Run, Notepad will open.
Edit the 3 Hand of Sean between the quotes marks highlighted in the screenshot to your font(make sure you have the font installed) and save it.
