Shavian block characters displaying as boxes on desktop
TTF fonts: seeing the characters availableUnicode characters suddenly start displaying as boxes in some applicationsWhy do fonts show up as boxes in Windows 8?Permanent fix for unicode characters not displaying correctly (as boxes)Replacement for cmd.exe displaying Unicode charactersSpecific characters displaying as boxes in Windows 7Several unicode characters are not displaying on many big sites (like this: )Chrome not displaying characters despite being installedHow can I view all characters in Segoe UI Symbol, in Babelmap or character map? (particularly 1F381) Characters past FFFFMy Windows 7 x64 PC won't display Cyrillic Characters
I have a windows 10 PC, and I'm having a problem which I had in the past: files that I name with characters from the Shavian unicode block (U+10450..U+1047F) are displaying only as boxes on the desktop. As a Shavian hobbyist, it would be helpful to be able to use Shavian for filenames and so on.
I know that the Shavian characters are found in Segoe UI Historic, which is a font found in Windows 10 by default. In fact, sometime in the past I followed a guide to get it displaying correctly which involved adding some values in the registry which, I believe, added a backup font (Segoe ″ ″) to load any characters that the default from couldn't.
However, a few months ago I'd done a clean install, and I can't find anything like that guide. (I know, I shouldn't have been messing with the registry when I didn't understand what I was doing in the first place.) I was wondering if anyone could help me out in getting these characters to display on my desktop once again. They display in-browser, and also in Discord and some other apps, but just not in Explorer.
