Question

Windows Font Viewer Freezing Computer

May 10, 2017 2:24PM PDT

I recently switched back to PC from Mac and I've been loving it. I've installed other fonts and everything worked fine, but I just recently purchased a font from a company, and when I click to open it, it freezes my PC. First the windows don't viewer pops up, then stops responding. Then all windows stop responding. And then everything slows right down and gets super laggy. It won't even open task manager it runs so bad. I have to manually shut my computer down and reboot to do anything. What can/should I do?
