Downloaded fonts won't install

Hello!

I just got a MacBook Air from work and I have downloaded fonts and tried dragging them into FontBook. All that happens is a quick window flashes open and then closes and then they are not showing up as installed.

Please help!

Thank you!

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.15

In Font Book > Preferences > Default Install Location, change whatever is there to the other option, restart, and try to install again.

hello, yes I have. I hit "install font" and/or drag the font into FontBook but nothing has worked. This is a work computer but I am listed as "admin" and have successfully downloaded and installed programs such as the Silhouette software.

Are there any other settings I should be looking at maybe?
