The service PresentationFontCache.exe is only useful if you use WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation) applications.

If not, try the following steps: a. Click on  Start type services.msc   in the start search box. b. Locate Windows Presentation Foundation service right click on the same and Disable the service.

Method 2: Try these steps and check if it works:

a. Click on Start click on my computer. b. Go to C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Local\ delete all Font*.dat and restart the computer.
