Just try to find games that are usually with windows can not find them anywhere.
Hello liaqui,
I guess that the Zuhl3156 has been asked is because by default Windows 7 Professional comes with the games are not installed. However, their installation is easy to achieve.

Following instruction at the link above, find the box for games within Windows features, place a check mark in the box and click OK.

How can I return default windows games in windows 8?
I'm not find some popular games such as cards, chess etc. in windows 8 that were in Windows 7.
However, it will appear in windows 8.1? and cannot find all of these games incorporated into windows to store free?
Hello
You are currently using Windows 8?
Windows 8.1 includes new features and other changes in the Windows store, but the apps that are available in the store will remain unchanged, except that the number of available applications is still growing.
Open the store and search for the game you are interested in.

A user of my application complains that the default context window makes no sense for him. I agree that it does not sese to a user of an application. Is there a way to change this?
I opened the window context when the application opens.
Default window is below.
Well, what I ended up doing was creating a case of event that will open the context menu of the first (and only the first) times a user will fly over a control on the façade - instead of open the context menu on the application startup. Given that the mouse is on a default context window control is avoided. Still a bit klunky in code, but it works. I'm not real happy with it, so if anyone has a more elegant solution.
Here is a snippit of code on the block diagram.

In all the hearts of Windows games, it seems that they do not know the rules. The Queen of Spades is just like a heart in the real rules. I don't have to play the Queen. If hearts have been broken, and all I have left is some hearts and the Queen of Spades, I can play a weak heart rather than being forced to play the Queen. The windows game apparently does not know this rule.
original title: rules of heartsHello
Actually if the Queen of Spades breaks hearts and cannot therefore be considered a heart
is optional. The basic rule is that the Queen of Spades does not break hearts and must be conducted
If a player has the Queen of spades and still hearts if hearts have been broken.My preferences are the Queen of Spades or a heart can be played on the 1st round Sub in the Clubs.
And the Queen of Spades does not break the hearts and must be conducted if only he and hearts are
left in the hands and hearts have not been broken. Those who make for much more difficult game
MY HUMBLE OPINION.Hearts

Windows games does not - to loose color and resize
I realize that this is not the most critical application in Windows Vista, but these games really provides a nice break. When I open one of the windows games, the window and the cards are grayed out. If I move my mouse over the game to another application window, the game returns to its colors original and active. But as soon as I bring my mouse to try to play the game, it's all gray and have fun in size.I tried to delete and add games available in the Control Panel, but alas... nothingHi girl Lake of gold,.-The problem only occurs with these games?-Don't you make changes to your computer before the problem?
There are a few steps you can try:Step 1:Perform the scan SFC . The tool (SFC.exe) System File Checker scans missing or system corrupted files and repairs them.
Step 2:If this doesn't help, you want to put your machine in a clean boot State in order to determine whether any third-party application is causing the problem to occur.
Step 3:If the above two steps are little help, you could create a new user account and check.If it works fine in the new user account, you would want to fix the damaged user account .

New computer & new installation of windows 7. No games. Features I've tried, but I get a message "an error has occurred, not all features that are installed.
Any ideas on troubleshooting and resolution?
Thank youHey prairiedog,.
This could be because some of the system files required by running Windows games are missing or are damaged. My suggestion to solve this problem is to run the System File Checker to replace missing or damaged files.
To do this, follow these steps:
1. open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click programs, accessories principally made, right-click Guest, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on allow.
2. type the following command and press ENTER:
sfc/scannow
The sfc/scannow command. analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.
To determine which files can be repaired by the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:1. open an elevated command prompt.
2. type the following command and press ENTER:findstr/c: "[SR] cannot repair the military file" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log > sfcdetails.txt
Note The Sfcdetails.txt file contains details of every time that the System File Checker tool has been run on the computer. The file contains information about the files that are not repaired by the System File Checker tool. Check the date and time entries to determine the problem files that were found last time that you ran the System File Checker tool.
3. type the following command and press ENTER:
Edit sfcdetails.txt
The date/time SFC detail
If the System File Checker tool cannot repair a file, follow these steps:
1. at a command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:
takeown /f Path_And_File_Name
2. type the following command and press ENTER to grant administrators full access to the file:
ICACLS Path_And_File_Name/grant ADMINISTRATORS: F
3. type the following command to replace the file with a known good copy of the file:
Copy Path_And_File_Name_Of_Source_File Path_And_File_Name_Of_Destination
Information available at:
How to use the System File Checker tool to fix the system files missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833After you run the tool, try to activate the features and games programs. If the SFC scan replaces missing files successfully, you should be able to run games on programs and features.

Windows games that came with my laptop
I do I have re - captured windows games that were installed when I bought my laptop? I don't have a DVD? is there way to re - install these games?
If these are the games that come with Vista, then you should be able to get them back by going to Control Panel / programs and features.
Then click on "Turn Windows Features on and out"
Expand the games section and select the games you want to be active again.Paul
