Re: Games in accessories

Thanx for your help, but i have wiped the games. I was doing a disk cleanup and went to more options then didnt select the accessories check box in component manager and so it wiped all the games and everything else in that file.


Ok, sorry for my mis-assumption. Maybe someone in for example 'microsoft.public.windowsxp.general' has experience with errors when (re-)installing WinXPs optional components.

Hi, I appear to have deleted all my games from my windows accessories file (solitaire, minesweeper, spider and free cell) I don't have an SP2 disk and so don't know how I can get them back. Can anyone help me please.

I have gone to control panel> add/remove components> selected accessories but it comes up with error msg cannot copy files.

any insight will be appreciated thanx

I can't help you with why you are getting an error message when using the 'System Optional Component Manager', but since the actual files for the various games are in different locations i'm making the assumption that it is just the shortcuts to start the games that you may have deleted.
