Re: re-installing freecell

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry



Hi Chasa,

Go through the process of checking the games as if they
are installed and you want to uninstall them.

Let Windows go through the process as if it's uninstalling
the games.

Reboot

Try installing the games again. It should work. :-)
