Install fonts in windows 7 using vbs

swinehart6803 — Thu, 14 Apr 2011 15:31:32 +0000

I have clients that are going to place their fonts, usually downloaded ones into a folder. I need a script to assist me in this.
Since I dont know what the fonts are called, I can’t use this one as stated, since I don’t know the .ParseName values.

How do I write this so it will go through the folder in question and parse out the names and run the “Install” process for these fonts?

This would run at startup on the end users manchines

Set objShell = CreateObject(“Shell.Application”)
Set objFolder = objShell.Namespace(“\\serverfonts”)
Set objFolderItem = objFolder.Parsename(“fontname.ttf”)
objFolderItem.InvokeVerb(“Install”)
