I'm not sure, but I suppose it was Arial, since I use that font quite a bit on my desktop. However, the instructions didn't warn against deleting Arial. How am I supposed to know what fonts Windows is using if it's using fonts other than those mentioned in the caveat? 

So how do I ever make the switch to using the fonts in the Type Manager? The instructions say to turn off all fonts in the Type Manager before deleting the fonts in the Windows Fonts folder.  

I thought the idea was that after deleting these fonts in the Win Fonts folder, I would turn on the fonts in ATM and use them. But that can never happen because once you delete them, no fonts can display on your computer. 

I must have missed a step or misunderstood the instructions.
