How to remove fonts true type? My computer will not let me delete open type fonts

Can someone tell me please the procedure to remove fonts? What are the steps to get permission to delete.  Other Shoulde not deleted.  I have so many duplicates and it takes me way to long to choose anything.  I have the option delete when I checed police right-click, then secuity screener pops up, and then when I say "Yes, I take action", the small circle of 'thinking' of Vista turns nothing happens.  The circle goes away and the rest of the police.

The problem seems to be with true type fonts.  Open type deletions are fine for most - some are refused, but thatss ok - they are in the minority.   There is little chance of other types, but I have not tried to remove. Thank you very much.

Hi nfreije,

1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

2. you receive an error message when you try to remove the fonts from the computer?

3. What is the reason to remove the fonts from the computer?

It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and try to remove the fonts from the computer.

To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

See the link below to learn more about how to clean boot.

(d) when you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart.

    Extract the exe file in a folder using 7zip

    Then delete usbready.exe

    And run setup.exe

    I had this exact error and solved with these exact steps on a new installation of windows with asus motherboard with all the usb ports on work.

    For some reason any the usbready.exe is just trash in some installations and does not correctly detect the usb ports.

    Edit: You can also follow these steps if you do not want / can not install 7zip

    From Windows Explorer type folder in the address bar and press ENTER.

    Locate and open the most recent HP installation folder, which begins with 7z (e.g. 7z1234a).

    Open the installation folder.

    Locate the file named usbready.exe, rename it to usbready1.exe or delete it.

    Go back up a level and start the Setup.exe program.

    Now follow the installation and check the differences.

    I'm trying to copy RIP CD on my computer but I get message that can read one or more files... when I have more info it tells me that a CODEC is wrong... What can I do to fix this and to RIP my CD?

    The codecare like translators who take the image sound format and encode or decode for scanning. I would recommend that you download and install one of the K-Lite codec packs here.

    Download K-Lite Codec Pack

    Download the Standard or Full package to halfway to the bottom of the page. There is a package tailor-made for 64 bit systems if your Windows operating system is that flavor. The 64-bit package is not always necessary, as most of the programs are still 32-bit.

    This is due to floating files, the result of many messages in the Inbox, or lack of compaction.

    Move all messages you want to save out of the Inbox, deleted items, and sent items in local folders, you create. Locate the OE message store and then close OE.

    If there is no message in the Inbox you want to, but can not move after return, before doing anything more.

    The location of messages.

    Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.

    In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.

    With OE closed, find the files Inbox.dbx, Sent Items.dbx, and Deleted Items.dbx and remove them. New files will be created automatically when you open OE.

    Compact all folders as described below.

    To avoid this in the future:

    Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.

    Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095

    After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.

    Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.

    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
