Why is ttc better?

It's a package of ttfs, simpler to have all in one file on disk as well as install from one. Customization can generate a lot of font varieties.

I often have difficulties when trying to install .ttc's on Windows 11. I don't know why.

Weird, because Microsoft invented the ttc. Its usually Mac users that have the problems with it.

Are you sure it isn't an issue where a specific app just doesn't know how to use ttc?
