Launch the Microsoft Store. Microsoft pins it to Windows 11’s Taskbar and Start menu by default, but if you’ve removed it from both of those places, the quickest way to access the marketplace is by searching for “Microsoft Store” via the Start menu.

Search for ‘Fonts’ in the top search bar. A results menu will appear, and “Fonts” should be the top result. It’s easy to spot if it isn’t, though, because it has a nondescript icon and is captioned with “Explore new fonts.” Click it.

Click the ‘Explore new fonts’ button. Microsoft devotes a significant amount of this page to a curated selection of fonts, many of which it designed, so we’ll start there.

Choose a font that interests you. In our case we’re going to select “Convection” because it looks like a fun sans serif we might want in our collection, but the steps will be the same for any of the fonts you choose, so pick whichever option catches your eye.

Click the ‘Free’ button. You don’t even have to sign in to the Microsoft Store to install free fonts; you simply have to click the “Free” button. Paid fonts do require you to sign in to a Microsoft account, however, and you’ll have to choose your payment method before you can confirm your purchase and install the font you want to use.

Once the “Free” button changes to “Open” you should be able to use the font you chose. Note that clicking the “Open” button won’t actually preview the font. It simply leads to the Personalization section of the Settings app and you can install the font over there by clicking on “install font” button.
