Recover lost Microsoft games after new download.
I just put my laptop Toshiba L505-S5984 for Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. I lost a lot of programs, but have been able to download almost all of them. However, I have none of the games Microsoft supplied with the original system. I have not titans of chess, solitaire, spider solitaire, hearts, etc... How retrieve them and get back them? Thank you!
Windows 7 Professional natively does not links of games. To install, open the Control Panel and click programs and features icon. And then in the left pane, click Windows turn features on or off. Place a check mark in the play area, and then click OK. Carey Frisch

Cannot run Microsoft games after upgrading Windows 8 Pro
After you have installed Windows 8 Pro I found my old Microsoft games (Solitaire, etc.) in the Windows.old file and used successfully and Favorites to the start menu. The next day (after several Windows updates) they would not start in the start menu or from the executable file in the Windows.old folder. Tried to restore the (only) listed restore point but received a message that it cannot restore. Tried the troubleshooting of compatibility without success. Uninstall the updates and restarted the resolution of compatibility issues, with the same results. Have right click on executable, open properties and set to run in Windows 7 compatibility mode and run as Administrator without success. How can I get my games to run on this POS?

Cannot download programs and basic games after recovery.

All of a sudden we cannot download programs of basic games, after recovery we cannot not even down load dap download eccellerator!
can help us, that's happened is that during the last 5 days.
Hi Eric,.
Chances are, something happened during the recovery process that prevents you from downloading something on the internet. One of the most common reasons for this is that the security settings are set too high. See the link below to learn how to change the security settings.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/change-Internet-Explorer-security-settings
Another reason that you might not be able to download whatever it is could be the settings you have enabled in your anti-virus program, if you are running one. If you are, try to disable the program while you download those

After I download and install games since the game first, big fish games and try to read a message box if poster indicating the name of the game has stopped working and that his search for a solution and you inform that a solution is found. Here are the games I bought on these sites. Games I buy in stores and install work. Am I missing a driver or something?
Hi Knbrown,
Welcome to Microsoft Vista answers Forum!
Most of the online games use Java and Flash Player. If Java or Flash Player is not updated, you can get this error message.
I suggest that you install the latest version of Java and Flash Player and make sure if you are able to play, you can see the link to download the latest version and install it by selecting the appropriate operating system:
http://get.Adobe.com/flashplayer/
http://www.Java.com/en/download/index.jsp
If the problem persists, I suggest that you check with the manufacturer of games for assistance, you can check the link: http://bigfishgames.custhelp.com/app/home
Let me know if it worked.
Thank you, and in what concerns:

After you download Firefox 4, my Google toolbar has disappeared. The new F4 page has no opinion, etc. to tools at the top. WHY I would risk this again by accepting the invitation to download 5?
Changes in the toolbars:
- I don't like the changes made to the user interface either, rather than to save toolbar space, they would have much more space with 1/10 the functionality. But the important thing is that it's Firefox and you can customize things yourself. Your complaints about the Firefox toolbars are the top 10 items in what follows and they are quickly fixed.
You can make Firefox 5.0 looks not like Firefox 3.6.19, see numbered 1 to 10 points in the next topic difficulty Firefox 4.0 UI toolbar, problems (Make Firefox 5.0, or 4.0.1 resemble 3.6). If you make changes, you must be aware of what has changed and what it takes to use changed or missing features.
hostage to the third party toolbar:
- Why you would bind your use of any third-party toolbar browser, which was never really necessary, and even less be hostage to not update to Firefox. Google has had over a year to update their toolbar for Firefox 4 and changes for Firefox 5 could have been tested for several months. Google has waited very long before for finally stating that they would maintain is no longer their toolbar for Firefox, claiming that it was not necessary, and that the items were in Firefox. Also be aware that the features are also in their own browser that also do not need or use the Google toolbar. Not only is Mozilla open source, but all the information is available to anyone - you can even listen online meetings yourself or wait for a printed reviewa.
- There is no change to the user interface of Firefox 4 to 5 and probably even not through Firefox 7
Life without the Google toolbar:
- You can read this article, on the basis of assessment of own Google features were already in Firefox and expanded from there.
Kicking a dead horse:
- The Google toolbar is no longer supported by Google in Firefox 5 and more ', you may be able to get what you want from him for a limited time, the instructions to install the Google toolbar have been posted before that Google has actually announced a fall support.
- Activate the Google toolbar in Firefox 5
