I just ran:
mtxrun --script fonts --list --info --pattern="*"

but only get:
mtx-fonts       |
mtx-fonts       | mapping : texmfhome
mtx-fonts       | fontname: texmfhome
mtx-fonts       | fullname: texmfhome
mtx-fonts       | filename: texmfhome.otf
mtx-fonts       | family  : texmfhome
mtx-fonts       | weight  : medium
mtx-fonts       | style   : normal
mtx-fonts       | width   : normal
mtx-fonts       | variant : normal
mtx-fonts       | subfont :
mtx-fonts       | fweight :
mtx-fonts       |

I also ran:
mtxrun --script fonts --reload

But that does not change the output from:
mtxrun --script fonts --list --info --pattern="*"


Windows and MacOS have they way to install/query system fonts.

I work with ConTeXt under Linux and Adobe runs under Windows.

What do I need to do to get things working.
