Bypass "Font is already installed" message

moishy

I have over 3000 fonts that I've backed up. (I had to reformat my drive.)

Now I try to copy/paste the fonts into the fonts directory.

For most of them I get the message:
The <font name> font is already installed. To install a new version, first remove
the old version.

It would be silly for me to sit there for a year and a quarter clicking "OK" "OK" "OK" "OK" ...

Is there a way to paste the fonts and bypass this message? Or is there a
better way to restore all my fonts?

Thanks!

Why not just delete all the fonts currently in your fonts folder and then copy and paste your backed up ones into the empy fonts folder?

You can find the way to bypass the message. The text is originally in Korean, but the English instructions are inline.

I think you can use command "copy *.ttf C:\WINDOWS\FONTS ".
I haven't test it, you can try it.
