  Notes:​

• Modifying system-level settings and folder permissions can affect the system's security. Ensure you only grant necessary permissions.
• It's recommended to create a system restore point before making significant changes. By following these steps, you can grant a standard user on Windows 7 the ability to install fonts without needing administrative privileges.
