How to clean font cache?

I needed a clean font and purchased a 1-license from font.com for the Monotype library. Then was prompted to include FontExplorer X Pro 6x. I cannot get my new fonts to load or replace in an InDesign document. Of course it's due at the printer.

I keep coming across "clean out my font cache" but no idea how to do that. What is the best way to start with Font Explorer? I've checked the boxes to activate but not yet happened.

Hi Loribydesign,

As per your query, below mentioned are the steps for troubleshooting and delete font cache.

For Windows: The Adobe caches are located at C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\TypeSpt and delete any AdobeFnt*.lst files. Do not delete AdobeFnt.db or FontNames.db!! Those are not caches.
