I don't know if that is because it was a user choice, or it was set by MS to different fonts at different times. Or it could be both. It was something the user could choose, but, MS used different defaults for it over the versions of Windows. The screenshots from@BetterRed shows it is Tahoma on his system. And checking here, it is also Tahoma. But, the only thing that shows your font is older versions of calibre and the registry.

If you want to move on with calibre 6, then you need to accept this and choose another font name. It will not be "fixed" as it is not actually a bug.
"And exactly what real font was by that virtual font could be different on different machines" ???
Are we in a science fiction movie and I haven't noticed?
Are you telling me that Windows, based on my hair color or my nails, decides which font to use?

I don't know what Qt6 is but I know that the problem is caused by the latest version of Caliber because the previous version shows the font that I use. So a change was made by the creators of Caliber which disabled the use of the font, I ask if it is possible to restore it. And please don't make me look like a madwoman asking for absurd and unattainable things. Otherwise I'll keep the old version of Caliber
