**but what if you wanna use that font for full system in system everywhere.**
To set a Google Font as the default system font in Windows (so it appears in browsers, File Explorer, and system UI), follow these steps:
---
### **1. Install the Font**
Follow the steps I mentioned earlier to **download, extract, and install** your preferred Google Font.
---
### **2. Change Windows System Font (Registry Edit Required)**
Windows does not provide a direct way to change the system font, but you can modify the registry:
#### **⚠️ Warning:**
Editing the Windows Registry incorrectly can cause system issues. Proceed with caution and **create a backup first**.
#### **Steps to Change System Font:**
1. **Open Notepad**
- Press `Win + R`, type `notepad`, and hit **Enter**.
2. **Copy & Paste the Following Code**
Replace `"Your Font Name"` with the actual name of your installed Google Font (e.g., `"Roboto"` or `"Lato"`).
```reg
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts]
"Segoe UI (TrueType)"=""
"Segoe UI Bold (TrueType)"=""
"Segoe UI Italic (TrueType)"=""
"Segoe UI Bold Italic (TrueType)"=""
"Segoe UI Light (TrueType)"=""
"Segoe UI Semibold (TrueType)"=""
"Segoe UI Symbol (TrueType)"=""
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontSubstitutes]
"Segoe UI"="Your Font Name"
```
3. **Save the File**
- Click **File → Save As**.
- Choose **All Files** in "Save as type".
- Name it **ChangeFont.reg** (with `.reg` extension).
4. **Apply the Changes**
- Double-click the `ChangeFont.reg` file.
- Click **Yes** to confirm adding it to the registry.
- Restart your PC for changes to take effect.
---
### **3. Verify the Font Change**
Once the system restarts:
- Open **File Explorer, Settings, or any system menu** to check if the new font is applied.
- Open a browser like **Chrome or Edge** and see if the font appears in UI elements.
If it doesn't work as expected, try using a different **Google Font Name** exactly as it appears in your Windows Fonts settings.
---
### **4. Restore Default Windows Font (If Needed)**
If you want to **revert back to the default Windows font (Segoe UI)**:
1. Create a new `.reg` file with the following content:
```reg
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontSubstitutes]
"Segoe UI"="Segoe UI"
```
2. Save and run it.
3. Restart your computer.
---
This will change the system font across Windows, including **File Explorer, browsers, and apps** that use system UI elements. 🚀
**For Default Font do this**
To go back to default system font style:
Paste this into Notepad
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
