Adobe Fonts don't show up in GIMP

By any chance, do your new Adobe fonts show up on the Windows 11 Settings > Personalization > Fonts page but not in the C:\Windows\Fonts folder? To me, that would suggest that GIMP looks for its fonts in the folder where older versions of Windows used to put them, but can't (or at least doesn't) access the "database" where Windows 11 keeps its up-to-date fonts.

I just checked as yes, that's exactly what happens.

The GIMP font folders are as follows. The first two lines were already there, the second two were added when I started having this problem.

C:\Users\chuck\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Fonts
C:\Users\chuck\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\fonts
C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\share\gimp\2.0\fonts
C:\Windows\Fonts

I've searched the Windows Registry and the font name doesn't appear anywhere. I can't find a general font directory either.
