The procedure to add new fonts in Windows 10 is easy: holding a left-click on your font file, just drag the TrueType font file to the opened Fonts folder's window, that actually contains all others installed fonts. Releasing the drag over this folder will make begin an "Installing font..." message, and, within few seconds, the font will be listed inside the Fonts folder.
