Segoe Script® font
Segoe Script is a script with the joining strokes of cursive handwriting. It was designed by Carl Crossgrove, and issued by Microsoft. It comes with Windows: use it on that computer, in documents and pictures, but its licence doesn’t let you put the font file on a website or pass it on. These 24 free handwriting faces come closest to it, measured letter by letter, closest first.
Segoe Script itself comes from your device, if it is installed
