Missing dictionaries and fonts

I found several times that my dictionaries and fonts just used seconds before were suddenly disappeared and need to be re-downloaded to use. I wonder is this problem related to the "feature" stated in this article: "Removes old fonts, languages, and dictionaries that aren't being used"? If so, is there a way to turn it off?

Thank you for the reply.


I lost the Oxford Thesaurus of English (British English) and the Dr. Eye Chinese English Bilingual Dictionary very often, and sometimes also the Oxford Dictionary of English. For the fonts, Kaiti TC often found lost, which is not used regularly but installed alongside the Chinese-English dictionary. FYI, the system language is Japanese.
