Does anybody know where could one download only the latest fonts that come with the 8400 build?

What's so important about the fonts?
I wish they hadn't changed the way it was done in XP.
On my PC, I can't select a font from the Fonts folder to add it to a file (e.g. include it in a mkv file using "mkvmerge GUI").
If I browse to the Fonts Folder, from inside another program, no files appear.
I have to go to the Fonts folder and then copy the font I want to somewhere else, before I can use it.
I've had to make another folder and I've copied all of my Fonts to it.

Several of them have bugs, which they only correct in new OS versions and don't upgrade via WIndows Update.
That is why it is relevant to me to somehow download the latest version of the untouched font pack that comes with Windows 8 but I don't know where to download it.
I thought I recognized the name and here is an image showing it in use within sysmetrix on my desktopFonts do need a rethought... I can't throw away my Mac until Windows supports the REAL Zapfino font.
Zapfino (at least on Mac) is a "smart font", with 1,400 glyphs, enough that different variations can be used depending on the letters next to them. It also allows for dedicated glyphs for common words, such as The, 1rst, Mc (as in Mc'Allister), and the name of the font itself.I read more posts and noticed the post by FutureDreamz

However I do not know what you mean by the REAL zapfino font, if my memory serves me correctly (probably not) there were some 6-8 fonts in the family issued by linotype including a couple of windings type.
The one illustrated is linotype zapfino three. I also have lz2 in the archive but not the "wingding" types
I've tried opening the install.wim file, but even though the archive is not corrupt, the file won't open in neither 7Zip, PeaZip nor GImageX. Does anybody know where might the problem be?
