A simple solution: install "wine", and all of these fonts are installed.
Otherwise, you can install the MS fonts manually in /usr/share/fonts

I have been receiving this error message for about 2 weeks. It says:

The data appears to be Microsoft brand fonds. I use Linux (Xubuntu
16.04). I run Libra-office for a program that might use these fonts.
I do not use MS brand fonts, although my spreadsheets come up with
Arial, which I must change to FreeSans.
When I "run this action now", it opens a terminal, asks for my root
password and appears to try to download files with a .exe file type.
Thoughts?
