Hi,

I accidentally install fonts from a folder via an installer
eg. c:\temp\testfonts\chlt.ttf

Now is there any API or Windows function can I uninstall the font from this
specific folder?

There is a key on your keyboard labeled "delete", it does a wonderful job.

I didn't work.
When I tried to delete the .ttf file in that director, Windows prompted this
file is using by another application.

Delete the shortcuts to them from Control Panel-Fonts

Then I would advise not to. If something is using them you may damage
that program.

Hi,

I think the reason Windows did not allow me to manually delete the .ttf from
Windows Explorer because I installed it sometime ago.
