Courier Regular Win11 Missing

So it turns out that the Courier Regular font is missing from Windows 11 somehow.

The COURE.FON file is present (and exact same hash as win10) however it is missing the registry keys needed to activate it.

Several of my hexeditor components were defaulting to Ariel and making a mess of the display. The following will fix it:

reg file
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts]
"Courier 10,12,15"="COURE.FON"
"Courier 10,12,15 (120)"="COURF.FON"
inno script
[Registry]
Root: HKLM; Subkey: SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts; ValueType: string; ValueName: Courier 10,12,15; ValueData: COURE.FON; Flags: createvalueifdoesntexist
Root: HKLM; Subkey: SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts; ValueType: string; ValueName: Courier 10,12,15 (120); ValueData: COURF.FON; Flags: createvalueifdoesntexist
