This tutorial explains how to install and set up FontForge on Windows, since it's a pain in the arse to figure it out on your own.
1. Download Cygwin from
www.cygwin.com. When you download the setup.exe it'll let you choose a download mirror and then what files you want to download. The defaults are way more files than what you really need, so it's good to go through and uncheck some files.
2. Download the specified files (it takes a long time finding them but it saves time downloading and space). You can find the list on
fontforge.sourceforge.net.
3. After cygwin is downloaded and installed, go to
fontforge.sourceforge.net and download the
fontforge_cygwin-xxxxxxxx.tar.bz2 file (x's standing for the release version). Extract it, then move the contents of the "fontforge" folder into
\cygwin\usr\local\bin.
4. Run Cygwin. when you get to the command prompt, enter
xinit, which starts the X11 Graphic Server.
5. Once it gets through the code for xinit and opens the Cygwin/X window, at the Cygwin/X prompt enter
fvwm2, which is a windows manager. Typing
twm & will also open a windows manager.
6. Click outside of the text field, and select "XTerm" from the menu. Clicking outside the text field didn't work for me (Miamoto), but the context menu came up when I hit F1. Either way may work.
7. A new box should appear; type
fontforge in the command prompt, and proceed to open the font you wish to edit.
Then you should be good to go. Good luck!

How to set up FontForge, on Windows
Also, the "click outside the text field" didn't come up with a context menu, so i hit F1 and the menu did show. i added that part too.
