To use this PowerShell script, follow the instructions below:

  1. Download the script from here and extract it where you want.
  2. From the extracted archive, copy the script file (FontInsta.ps1) to same folder where the archive file is placed. If don't want to copy the script, then you have to provide the full path with archive file (done in step 4).
  3. Shift+Right-Click on the empty area of the folder and select Open PowerShell window here from the context menu.
  4. Run the script with the command: .\FontInsta.ps1 -ArchiveName <name_of_font_archive>

The script will extract the fonts from the archive file and install them into the Windows Fonts folder.

By default, the script will only install fonts from the root directory of the archive. If you want to install fonts from subdirectories, use the -SubDir parameter to specify which subdirectories to install from.

Use the -All parameter to include fonts from subdirectories within the specified directory or subdirectories.
