I don't know how to deal with that registry issue. My test was done on a clean win10 and with a zip version of Pd (don't know where the registry is stored) but it worked as is supposed to (from the GUI).
Try uninstalling and reinstalling to see if that clears the registry. Hope it helps, Salutti, Lucarda.

Try the “save all settings” >relevant also to the size of the font (e.g. -font-face 24) etc. Surely you miss-typed in this message, you mean: -font-size 24 ? My tests were using the Zip version of Pd, not with an installation. Looks like a Registry shi*. Try to erase all registry doing: >From the CLI: pd.exe -noprefs Save all settings from “file/preferences/save all settings ” quit run again retry loading the font from the startup flags menu entry, “save all settings” again. Quit reopen ..... PS: there were reports of windows loosing reg settings. There were also announcements of a coming pref file to avoid the registry. Also I`m a regular user and I avoid using the registry with .cmd files for different startups.

Yes I'm saving all the settings with the dedicated menu entry, after pressing "Apply" and "Ok". I'm typing Cambria in case-sensitive manner since cambria (case-insensitive) is not found (I am using: log dropdown > all) (btw the same happens with the other common fonts, e.g. Courier, Arial, ...) the problem, as described in my previous post, is relevant also to the size of the font (e.g. -font-face 24) etc. I'm investigating further: when I save the startup prefs using the GUI, in my case the registry key that Pd uses is: HCU\Software\Classes\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Pd but when I reopen the application, it seems that the key used to retrieve those info is instead this: HKLM\Software\WOW6432Node\Pd (which in my case doesn't exist at all) and in fact if I reopen the Startup GUI, there are no flags anymore, but in the registry the values are still there: in HCU\Software\Classes\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Pd Thanks Enrico _______________________________________________ Pd-list@lists.iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> https://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
