Non-Free Font May Be Required to Fix "all-the-icons" In Centaur Emacs on Windows 10 #167

I recently tried to install Centaur Emacs in Windows 10, which uses "all-the-icons" to display icons in the UI. This resulted in needing to install the non-free font "Symbola" in order to resolve the issue. For some reason this works.

The Centaur Emacs developer seems to think the issue is with "all-the-icons". Would you help address this issue?

Here are the two issues I brought up in the Centaur Emacs repository: Broken Icons on Windows #121 "Symbola" Font is Required for Icons to Not Be Broken On Windows 10

I got the same issue , have you solve this problem? @davidpgil

Symbola is not necessary to display any icons in this package. Any tofus you see is due to Emacs not able to pick up any fonts that has a glyph for that code point.

@TheoryMystic Have you checked the README and do you have a screenshot?

@wyuenho I read the README and manually installed relevant fonts , the screenshot: icons-lost 1598346580(1)

Emacs is not picking up the icon fonts. When do you see when you followed the debugging steps?
