Stop Loading Windows Fonts. - jerryemerydelacruz - 10-24-2021

Is there a way to prevent Gimp from loading the fonts in the Windows>Fonts folder?  I have removed all the font paths from Preferences but Gimp still reads the Windows fonts.

I changed the permissions of the fonts.conf file in Program Files>Gimp2/etc/fonts. Opened the file with Notepad and removed the line <dir>WINDOWSFONTDIR</dir>. I then copied a ttf font to the Program Files>Gimp 2>share>gimp>2.0>fonts folder and restarted Gimp.
