Open the downloaded Zip file and extract the content of the Fonts folder into a temp folder.

Select all the extracted fonts and right-click > Install for all users


If promoted that the font is already installed and do you want to replace it select Yes to replace all fonts


The Solid Edge fonts are now successfully installed


Restart Solid Edge and the missing GD&T symbols will now be correctly displayed
