Where are user specific font files stored?

This question helps where global fonts are stored: Where are the physical font files stored?

But I'd like to know where user-specific fonts are stored. For example, when I right click on a font, I have the option to Install or Install for all users, so I presume the generic Install will install it to an %appdata% folder or similar? I just can't find where that folder is.

When using Install, fonts will go into AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Fonts rather than c:\%windir%\fonts.

If you want to see where a font is installed to, navigate to Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Fonts, find a font, right-click it and go to Properties. I just installed this font using Install
