            Bug ID: 90813
           Summary: Cache fonts in Windows registry
           Product: fontconfig
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: fc-cache
          Assignee: fontconfig-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Some fonts are available under Windows without being in the C:\\Windows\Fonts
directory. They are listed in the registry key 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts

See http://tug.org/pipermail/luatex/2015-May/005212.html for a few links.

I think fontconfig should be able to find them, as they are available in other
Windows applications.

See https://github.com/phst/lltxplatform/blob/master/src/fonts_windows.c for an
example of code listing these fonts in C.
