How do i change all fonts in windows xp ?!...not just fonts under icons but in taps...bars ...in short...make the whole windows use one font for every thing regardless the theme in use...i really need help on this one
ex: aqua base font
thanks in advance
you can try changing the default system font to lucida grande (or whatever) by going into the registry, finding:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontSubstitutes
and changing the values in "MS Shell Dlg" and "MS Shell Dlg 2" to lucida grande. reboot.
that'll change the system font all over.
Thanks man :rock:
@Dreamz: could you tell me what was there before? I changed ms shell dlgs to lucida grande long time ago and I can't remember what's supposed to be there by default. And I need right now. Please 
If you use Mozilla, you have to change the font in there a different way.
If you download the extension Preferential, it shows a whole list of new strings which you can add to the .js files to mod your browser.

MS Shell Dlg is Microsoft Sans Serif
MS Shell Dlg 2 is Tahoma
Thank you!
I made a post over at AquaXP ages ago about something similar to this. I was just wondering if anyone found a suitable mac-font to replace these fonts? I find that when I use something like LucidaGrande, it just makes a lot of dialogs really wide and the tabs look a bit odd.
pe7er, sorry i didn't tell you the fonts earlier. i was out all day, but at least sid knew! 
@dappleyard: for firefox, you don't need to do that. merely go to about:config and change the font.default value to "serif" or "san serif." the actual fonts depend on what you set for serif and sans serif in the options > fonts and colors.
Another option:
1. Get Adobe Type Manager(ATM)
2. Search the forums for the Soulless fonts
3. load them using ATM
4. Choose 'Use new for all'
5. Enjoy
It's nice to see a topic where people actively discuss about modding windows and not posting pics of their cars or husbands/wives etc....(you know what I mean).
Please keep it up dear community.
P.S. Thanks Duckie, I didn't know that method.
