I had a quick question about altering fonts in Windows 7 I was hoping someone could give me a hand with. I have a touch of OCD when it comes to consistency and am having trouble changing the system fonts globally on my machine. I have changed 80% or so of them through the registry entry (found here):
The only issue I’m having is that the font is not adjusted in a few other places. For example, if I right-click on a file and look at the properties window, the font is still the default system font. The following is an example:

Edit: Shortly after posting this I found the exact registry edit I was looking for:

You're more concerned w/ using same / similar fonts everywhere vs. enlarging them?
I found what you show in the registry for a default system font.
As you said, personalization options only let you change so much.Some say they've had success on fonts using Skinstudio (SKS). Fonts & SKS are discussed a good bit on WindowBlinds forum

I would not recommend changing all the system fonts in windows. mic84
Some applications may not display as anticipated. You do not need to use the registry as in Control Panel click on the 'Fonts' Icon and you will find a wealth of information and adjustments to all fonts on your machine and a link to load more fonts. You can add fonts, hide fonts, delete fonts even adjust clear type text properly. (Fonts Icon Control Panel).

There's a thread here on how to change fonts used in Windows default applications like Sticky Notes in Windows 7.
I imagine you can follow similar steps and set all fonts to the same .ttf file following these instructions: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/a75ad434-fc85-4840-8798-f2205cc026d4/how-to-change-sticky-note-font?forum=w7itproui
edit added instructions to be relevant
With some modifications with that font, you can use other fonts as to change the default font in Windows applications.
optional - you can delete other Segoe fonts - select(one click), press Del, press Yes
end edit
This should have a similar effect to change most, if not all of your computer fonts from this tutorial. Dynascape design software. You will have to reset your computer to see the changes, which will mean probably some back and forth tweaking and testing.
