Windows 7 Default fonts reinstall?

[Focus]

In my thirst for more speed I was a little to quick with removing fonts
Now I get an ugly font instead of the default one I had before.
What can I do? Can I "reset" or reinstall just the fonts?
Do and can I reinstall Windows 7 over the existing version, keeping everything else in tact?

Or am I just scrwd?

Don't worry, there are a few things you can try to restore the default fonts and potentially improve the font display on your Windows 7 system:

1. Restore Default Fonts:​

You can restore the default fonts on your Windows 7 system by following these steps:

1. Go to Control Panel > Appearance and Personalization > Fonts.
2. In the Fonts window, go to File > Restore default font settings.
3. Confirm the action, and Windows will restore the default fonts.

   2. Reinstall Fonts:​

   If you know which fonts you removed, you can reinstall them manually by downloading the specific fonts from a trusted source and installing them on your system. You can double-click on the font file and then click "Install" to add it back to your fonts collection.

   3. Reinstall Windows 7:​

   If the font issue persists and you want to start fresh with Windows 7, you can consider reinstalling Windows 7 over the existing installation. Here's how you can do it while keeping your files and settings intact:
4. Insert your Windows 7 installation disc or USB drive.
5. Restart your computer and boot from the installation media.
6. Follow the on-screen instructions until you reach the installation type selection.
7. Choose the Upgrade option to reinstall Windows 7 over the existing installation.
8. This process should keep your files, settings, and applications intact while potentially fixing any font issues.

   Backup Your Data:​

   Before proceeding with any major changes like reinstalling Windows, it's always recommended to back up your important files and data to prevent any unintentional loss during the process. So, you're not "scrwd" just yet! Give these steps a try, starting with restoring the default fonts, and if needed, consider the other options like reinstalling fonts or potentially doing a Windows 7 reinstallation while keeping your files.
