Last updated August 16, 2010 12:37 AM

Bored with the default Windows fonts? Want to add fonts or change fonts on your Windows XP machine? This video will show you how to add a new font and then use it as the font for the Windows title bar. Using the techniques demonstrated, you can change the fonts for all the other Windows elements too.

Not using Windows XP? Tutorials for changing fonts are available for Windows Vista and Windows 7 users too. Click here for the Windows Vista version, or click here for the Windows 7 version.

Note - if you use the Windows skinning utility Windowblinds, you should change fonts using Windowblinds own font tool, rather than the Windows appearance settings shown in the video. Fonts must be installed the same way as shown in the video however.

Please wait a few moments while the video loads. When loading is complete, press the play button on the video to start playback.
