SQL: Fix - Missing Font Options in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) 17.x
Ever since about version 17.3 of SQL Server Management Studio, I’ve had problems with fresh installs (as opposed to upgrades). I’ve been unable to set the fonts and colors. When I go into that dialog, I see the list as shown in the main image above.
All the normal option for windows that you can make settings for aren’t there.
On my current machine, I had just installed a v18 SSMS and it was fine. All font options, etc. were there. But I had to install v17.9.1 of SSMS side-by-side because the ssbdiagnose tool was missing on my machine. (I needed it for our new Service Broker course and v18 doesn’t install it for some reason).
