I am trying to use the .NET Windows Form OpenFileDialog control to select a font file (not a font as you would with the FontDialog), but the dialog will not allow a mouse click to select a file in the C:\WINDOWS\Font directory.
Any ideas for choosing a font file
The Fonts folder is customised. In order to make it behave like a normal folder – and allow a font file to be selected from it – you need to remove the ReadOnly and System attributes with
attrib -s -r fonts. (This is for Windows XP/2003, I can’t say for Vista/7)
