   It has taken me an entire month to get my Win10Pro machine up and running.   
   Most of the delay was caused by installing the wrong KVM switch and then   
   having to wait to order and install a replacement 4K KVM switch. I got a   
   28" Samsung UHD monitor and nvidia geforce gt 1030 graphics card.   
      
   So my first question is: How does one install additional console fonts in   
   Win10Pro? Is it the same procedure as before, via RegEdit? Is this still   
   even allowed? I have lots of extra TT fonts installed for my Win7Pro machine.
