Your font needs a bold version. If none is provided, Windows will add pixels to make faux bold characters when that attribute is enabled in a word processor or other application using that font.

If I make a bold version, in this case it will not be made bold for everyone, and this is not what I want.
The current version is Regular, and when using bold in other programs, I want to exclude only some characters from bold, not all characters.

You need to provide a bold font as well. You can use the same glyph outlines for those specific characters that should not change in weight.

As I mentioned to you, my friends, I want to use the Regular weight, and if I create a bold version, all letters will be considered bold, and I do not want all letters to be ignored.
I just want to exclude the symbol only, and if the symbol is exposed, its appearance becomes very bad, so I want it to be ignored only.

You need to talk to Microsoft if you want to request changes to Windows.

I don't think it's too difficult to modify Windows ), there should be an option within High-Logic FontCreator that enables you to do this.

I asked ChatGPT but did not find these options and here is his answer:

In High-Logic FontCreator, you can control the boldness of specific glyphs by adjusting the “Bold” property for each individual glyph. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to achieve this:

1. Open your font project in High-Logic FontCreator.

2. Go to the “Glyph Edit” mode by selecting the “Edit” menu and choosing “Glyph Edit” or simply pressing the “F2” key.

3. Select the glyph(s) that you do not want to be affected by boldening. You can do this by clicking on the desired glyph(s) in the Glyph Edit window.

4. Once the glyphs are selected, right-click and choose “Properties” from the context menu.

5. In the "Glyph Properties" dialog, go to the "Glyph Metrics" tab.

6. Look for the “Bold” property, and set it to “No” for the selected glyphs. This will prevent those glyphs from being affected by boldening when the font is used in a bold style.

7. Click "OK" to apply the changes.

8. Save your font project to ensure the changes are preserved.

Now, when you use your font and apply a bold style, the glyphs you marked as “No” for the “Bold” property will remain unchanged, appearing as they are without any bold effect.

Keep in mind that some applications may automatically apply a faux bold effect to fonts, especially if the font doesn't have a dedicated bold version. In such cases, the effectiveness of this method may depend on the specific software and how it handles bolding.

In the bold version of your font, symbols can be the same for both Regular and Bold versions, with the other glyphs being bold for the bold version.

Regular
Bold

I understand what you mean by creating a bold font, and using the symbols in their current bold weight.
But I use the font in Android applications, especially for HTML pages, so issuing the Bold font will not work.
