mkdocs-material: Social plugin: can't find fonts on Windows

Context

I am attempting to setup social cards for the first time in Windows. Have searched for solutions but it appears that loading fonts is not working as expected

Bug description

Enable social plugin in mkdocs.yml via adding the following lines:

`plugins:

• info
• social ` Results in the following error:
