The more fonts you have, the more processing windows XP /7 /8 /10 have to do to prepare all of those fonts for use. But there are many cases that you can use windows without many of these fonts. Microsoft provides a wide range of fonts to windows. Every font has a unique personality and can be used to subtly, and in some cases unsubtly, change the way text is read.

Microsoft induced an extensive collection of fonts with windows to support users around the world in almost any language. Basic, clean and legible fonts are used by windows to display menus, dialogs, labels, etc. These are commonly referred to as UI or “User Interface” fonts. The richest variety of Windows fonts may be found in fonts for the Latin, Greek and Cyrillic alphabets, but Windows includes fonts for use with all the major languages and writing systems around the world.


For instance, you may have foreign language fonts and other symbol fonts (for example: Wingdings) that you never use.
