Installed fonts are listed in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts so you can check it with regedit or just run the below command

reg query "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts" /s

Alternatively run this in PowerShell

Get-ItemProperty 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts'
