Re: PreInstalled Spider Solitaire disappeared

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Have you run your anti virus software using the latest definitions on your
system lately? Accessories should be off the Start menu under All
Programs/Accessories.

On the suggested changes, you would need to uncheck everything, OK your way
out, restart your system, then go back in and put the desired check marks
in, and repeat the OKing and restart. Then try it.
