Where's my Solitaire?

Post by Napoleon »

I'm on a bit of a Solitaire-kick, lately (slow time at work, so I had to entertain myself ;) ) so I thought I'd play it on my home pc as well. I check my start menu, but in the folder with the MS games, the only games there are the MSN Gaming Zone games (Reversi, Spades, Hearts, and such) and none of the regular games (Freecell, Solitaire, Spider Solitaire, Hearts). I checked the software tab in the configuration screen, but it says the games are installed. I tried reinstalling them, but no go. When I remove the Gaming Zone games, but leave the regular games, the games folder (I'm not sure what the name is in english, as I've got a dutch windows XP) in the start menu is empty.

What's the install path for these games, or does anyone have a solution so that they pop up in the start menu?

Thanks!

Mines in \WINDOWS\system32. You may want to check Add or Remove software/Add or remove Windows componenets to see if they have been uninstalled.

I did that, Ceekay. Even when I uninstall, and then reinstall them, they still don't show up in the start menu. Anyway, I found them now (thanks!) and created a shortcut.
