Upgraded from 2020 to 2023 and I can’t get Photoshop Elements to recognize new fonts

Since upgrading, new fonts I've installed on Windows aren't listed in Photoshop Elements. I have tried restarting the program. I have tried rebooting my PC. No luck.

I believe that's a bug it photoshop elements, though no one from Adobe has officially said, however, there have been numerous reports on the forum.

FYI,

I have just discovered a workaround for this bug in PSE 2023 & PSE 2024 on a WINDOWS PC. I don't know if it may work on a Mac.

I was browsing my C: drive looking for something and saw a "Fonts" folder in "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe." When I started to drill down into the folder, I discovered two folders:

• "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts\EO\21\"
• "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts\EO\24\"

that contained 134 otf font files. So, I thought, what the hell, and I copied my "mvboli.ttf" font file into the folder.

IT WORKS! I can now use the MV Boli font in PSE 2023 & PSE 2024.
