XP Pro SP2 and a mess of updates.

While in Disk Cleanup I went to the Windows Component Add/Remove to
eliminate some unwanted progs.

Bad idea. I've never figured out how to operate that thing properly.

Anyway I lost, among other things, my Windows FreeCell game, one of the
few things I ever play.

Can anyone tell me how to reinstall that thing? I've found various
FreeCells on the internet, but I like the original best.

TIA
