I just installed Gimp 2.10.24 on a new computer, and it's reading the fonts from the Windows Font folder even though that folder isn't listed as a font folder in the Preferences>Folders>Fonts. All of the font folders in Preferences are empty. Is there a way to prevent Gimp from loading the Windows fonts and only load the Fonts I put in the folders listed under Preferences?
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. Now it only shows the one font, so this seems to work.
