FontExplorer activating fonts?

Fontexplorer says there are 270 "system" fonts and I need a few others activated at all times.
So I deactivate most fonts and leave it at around 350 fonts. However whenever I reset my computer, Fontexplorer has 950 fonts activated. This happens every time, and I think it slows down my machine having 950 fonts up.
Why does it automatically activate them on a restart? How do I stop this?

I had a similar issue and the following seemed to work:
– Run all the tools within FontEx, a couple require restart.
– Deactivate everything within FontBook. (I actually deleted it, maybe a bit drastic.)Hope you sort it.

Sounds like you put fonts in your systems folder. I have two main folders font Xplorer reads from.
1. System fonts.
2. Font Xplorer fonts (this folder is located in my documents folder)
You may want to do a new reinstall.

I opened Fontbook for the first time in years a few days ago and think it activated every font. When I deleted them from Fontbook, it moved them to Trash.
Can I delete Fontbook?

I don't understand what "All Users" is when my computer only has one username.
- it's just a shared directory, standard in unix based systems, and good for if/when you have another user or login as rootmonospaced

I don't think you can delete FontBook.
