[Gimp-user] gimp wont ignore deleted fonts

[reddog-f13 <forums gimpusers com>]

okay so i have this issue with gimp and fonts thats been lasting for a few years
now. iam desperate to fix it after doing so many things and asking in so many
different places and so far no help at all. so i mite as well ask here.

i installed some custom fonts i made into windows font folder, but i either
deleted them, or made some changes to the font that required me to replace/
reinstall them.

UNFORTUNATELY despite deleting them from EVERY SINGLE FONT FOLDER i could find.
they wont go away. they only appear in gimp when its opened.

ive tried almost EVERYTHING to delete these hidden fonts that dont exist in my
computers opinion, but gimp believes they do and is even still able to fully use
them.

ive tried:

control panel -appearance - fonts - but none of them exist there, so i cant
delete them.

c: -windows - fonts - basically the same folder, and still the fonts don't exist

deleting every gimp font folder i could find. also the gimp font folders are
empty.

i uninstalled gimp so many times, going so far as to hunt any remaining left
overs to delete

going into the computer registry with win button + R, they don't exist in that
font file either.

using a command prompt to try and delete them, but still the comp says it cant
find them.

deleting gimps font config -which deleted any ability to read fonts, and even
after fixing it, they were STILL THERE!

deleting all the folders that gimp reads fonts from. but gimp still says it
finds the fonts in the c: - windows - font file. yet i cannot see them, even
when i press unhide font just to see if i can. and i still cant see anything.

i have like 10 copys of 1 font showing in gimp because i made a little tweak and
replaced it and its really pissing me off now.

system restore is out of the question as this has been going on for YEARS now. i
think my only salvation is a factory reset, which i absolutely dont want to do
just to fix this small annoying font issue.
