• What happened to the default games?

  I have recently upgraded to Windows 7, but since I switched from Windows Vista Ultimate 64 - bit of Windows 7 Professional 64 bit, I was forced to reinstall and lose all my old programs. My only problem is that the default 'games' folder that came with the installation of Windows 7 is completely empty, other than "Game Explorer" which also has nothing in it. All previous versions of Windows, I've never had always put the default games like Solitair and Minsweeper. So is there a good reason I have none now? Is it meant to be like that? Y at - it an update I'm supposed to install? Y at - it somewhere that I can get the default value of games?

  Try this: Press Start > Control Panel > programs > Turn Windows features or disable > expand games > select the games you want to install.

  uninstalled is default games xp window. How do you get them back?

  If the games were installed before and you have uninstalled them from Add/Remove Programs, you will not have the CD to reinstall the games (I went through the process again myself).  I skipped the step 1 and did not ask for that CD. do not guess what the problem might be - understand and repair. I need YOUR voice and the points for helpful answers and propose responses. I'm saving for a pony!

• Wrong default mail program

  One of my users has a XP pro machine that insists that outlook Express is the default mail program. In the Internet/program Options, Outlook is selected as the default e-mail program. In Outlook Tools/Options/other, making Outlook the default e-mail program is checked. If I start Outlook Express and look at the options, it says that OE is NOT the default e-mail program. If I go to control panel and click on Mail, Outlook is the only profile.

  However, if I click on start/run and type address mailto:*** E-mail is removed from the privacy *, OE turns on.

  Any ideas?

  That defy all logic.
  Try going into control panel of-> Internet Options-> programs (tab)
  and select a different element to the e-mail program.  Then press "OK" your way out.
  Then go to Internet Options, click on Control Panel and return to Outlook and "OK" your way on.   It is a long shot, but maybe recover.

  HTH,

• I'm unable to download games, programs, etc from the internet.

  I'm unable to download games, programs, etc from the internet.  It started a year ago and I still have the problem.  I click on "Download", the dialog box appears, click "run" dialog box appears indicating the time to download, and then click "Run" and the dialog box disappears without ever finishing.  Anyone know what is happening, why and how resolve it.  Please keep in mind I'm not savvy with the computer language and need answers in the form of simple.  Thank you

  There is no way to accurately diagnose that lasts a year and with so little information. You should start by ensuring that the computer is free of viruses/malware:

  Post back with the results for further assistance.

  If you can't do the work yourself (and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea), take the machine to a professional computer repair shop (not your local equivalent of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad). If possible, have all your data backed up before taking the machine into a shop.

• How to set yahoo mail as default email program because I can't send an email to the seller to Craigslist?

  We just got a new desktop computer with Windows 7 operating system. I tried to answer the craigslits seller (I use yahoo mail and also downloaded yahoo Messenger) and when I click on the link to answer a small window jumped and said that " ", there is no email associated program to perform the requested action. "Please install e-mail programs or if it is already installed, create an association in the default programs control panel.

  Please help me how to make changes or add the default e-mail program. I can't find the e-mail under Internet Options program. I want to use my yahoo email account.

  Looking forward for your help!

  OK, I found a solution that is acceptable to me, if all goes well it wll be for other institutions.

  Just download the Yahoo toolbar and make sure to select the 'mail' app, in my version, there were 4 check boxes, the first three have been selected and the fourth, the e-mail option, was not.  I have others unchecked, installed the toolbar and after its closure and reopend IE, the toolbar is active.  I went to default programs start menu by default/programs/set and then chosen yahoo mail as the default mail program.  Then I went back to IE and clicked on the key which is the toolbar settings and disabled.

  Now everything works as before and I do not have the yahoo toolbar clutter my viewable area.

  Good luck!

• My computer keeps me tabbing off games, programs and taking me to the windows screen whenever I start something up, what would cause this?

  I recently built a computer, and it was working fine the first week I got it. Recently however, whenever I start a game or a program such as Netflix or even simply get on the internet it is like I hit alt + tab and takes me in my office. I thought it might be a virus or malware but when I scanned my computer it was a virus that can detect my software and I deleted all the malware that was found. When it does work, I asked a friend about it and he thought that the problem was the key to windows on my keyboard. I had been using, I unplugged the keyboard started a game and he seemed fine, but I put a new keyboard in there today and the problem has started again. I have no idea what could be causing this and I need to know if it's a simple solution or if I should consider a professional and ask them to look at?
