In previous versions, such as on Windows 7, you're able to access the personalization settings to change the system font for various desktop elements, including the font for File Explorer, icons, title bars, menus, message box, and more, but starting with Windows 10, the option has been removed, and you're now stuck with the default family font.

However, if you're looking to change the default 'Segoe UI' font, you can still complete this task making some modifications to the Registry.

Jun 15, 2011  Hi,This issue came at the same time to Evernote app on my laptop and desktop, with an upgrade I auto-installed in early June (like 2-3 June or so). I left for vacation right after and didnt note the version, but I also came home last night & updated and it still persists on both Mac apps.

How to change default font on Windows 10

To change the system font on Windows 10, use these steps:

Warning: This is a friendly reminder that editing the Registry is risky, and it can cause irreversible damage to your installation if you don't do it correctly. It's recommended to make a temporary full backup of your PC before proceeding. Alternatively, you can create a system restore point, which will also help you to revert the changes.

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Click on Personalization.
  3. Click on Fonts.
  4. Click on the font family that you want to use. For example, Arial, Courier New, Verdana, Tahoma, etc.

  5. Open Start.
  6. Search for Notepad and click the top result to open the app.
  7. Copy and paste the following registry code onto the text file:

  8. Replace the ENTER-NEW-FONT-NAME placeholder with the name of the font family exactly as it appears in the title of the settings page. For example, Courier New.

  9. Click the File option.
  10. Click the Save As option.
  11. Under the 'Save as type' option, select the All Files option, and name your file anything you want with the .reg extension. For example, change-windows-10-font.reg.

    Source: Windows Central

  12. Click the Save button.
  13. Right-click the '.reg' file and select the Merge option.
  14. Click the Yes button.
  15. Click the OK button.
  16. Restart your device.

Once you complete the steps, you should now see the new font family throughout the desktop elements, including on File Explorer, message box, taskbar, and apps that make use of the default system font.

Restoring default system font

If you want to revert the changes, use the previously created system restore point or follow these steps:

  7. Click the Save button.
  8. Right-click the '.reg' file and select the Merge option.
