How to Uninstall Fonts

Microsoft's Windows operating system includes installed fonts in the Windows Control Panel. You can use these fonts in your documents, Windows preferences for the title bars, dialog boxes and other window text. If you no longer need a font, Windows has a utility that uninstalls them and removes them from the hard drive. This is beneficial if your hard drive has no more room to store information.
