    STEP 2:

    In most cases if the games are deleted from the computer files will remain on the computer.

    I suggest that you are looking for game files in the system32 folder.

    Later, click on Start menu click on run and type c:\\windows\system32 in the following search of the window for the file of games like free cell. If you get the files in the system32 folder then copy the file to c:\\program files\start menu\ later in the game folder.

    STEP 3:
    If fails it above steps, try a system restore to the point when the game was available on the computer.
     
    See the link below to learn how to perform the system restore.

  • My solitaire games have been deleted, how can I get them back

    I tried to delete my account in CA and my games and maybe some other things has been deleted, how to bring them back?

    First, check if you have removed actually lonely:
    1) click Start, and then click on 'run '.
    (2) insert this: "sol.exe" (without the quotes)
    So lonely is open, then it means that it is on your computer, in this case, go to: C:\Windows\System 32 and find the file called "sol.exe" and drag it to your desktop.
    If Solitaire is not running (ie you actually deleted it) then try this:

    1) go to the control panel
    (2) open "Add/Remove Programs".
    (3) along the left side, click on 'Add/Remove Windows components.
    (4) double click on the option "accessories and utilities.
    (5) double click on the 'games '.
    (6) select 'lonely '.
    7) click OK two the two screens you opened
    (8) when you are in the window of the Moose, click on 'Next' and Windows should install the game.

    The error message on the new imports you report confusion often really means that LR cannot write where you tell him.

  • If I hit "delete" instead "delete from disk" in an attempt to get rid of unwanted photos, where are they going?  How can I access them on a Mac to remove?

    If I hit "delete" instead "delete from disk" in an attempt to get rid of unwanted photos, where are they going?  How can I access them on a Mac to remove?

    They are scattered in several files.  Many are in a specific folder.

    My problem is that I can't locate them. I want to just get rid of them to save space and future confusion.

    If you could me a tip assuming that they are in a single folder, that could help me today and tomorrow.

    Thank you very much.

I tried right click again to see if I could get back, but it did not work. then I tried to turn off the computer and it still does not work. How can I get that back? and if I get it back, all my favorites will be gone?

    Versions of Firefox 3.6 + have a feature to allow the user to hide the Menu bar.

    Press the Alt key to temporarily show the Menu bar, then open view > toolbars and select menu bar, so it has a check mark.

    The F10 can also be used on most PCs to temporarily reveal the menu bar.

  • Where is the folder 'All messages' past? How can I get that back?

    Hello.

    At some point the "mail all the" folder for my Gmail account disappeared in Thunderbird. There are still at Gmail.com (twice, actually). I had hoped that it will reappear when I installed T-bird on my new machine, but no luck. No idea where it might have and how can I get it back?

    I tried the account settings / sync / storage / synchronization of Message / advanced, but it is not there on the list to be selected. (It's here for another Gmail account that I use, but not for the one in question). I'm running Thunderbird 31.1.2 8.1 Windows

    Any suggestions you might have would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you very much

    I see other screenshots that you are indeed the quota on the server.

    When this happens, generally you move messages from the server to the local folders.
    You have created another Gmail account and moved the messages to the new account. It is possible, but this isn't something I would have done well.

    When you are still 95% usage of the storage on the server for the original account, "transposed" messages still exist there.
    You must delete messages that you have successfully "moved" to the new account in the original account.
    You can do this via Thunderbird or by logging into your account via a web browser.
    After deleting the messages also make sure to empty the trash.

    You've apparently created a mess with your Gmail labels, and I don't know what you did and how you did it.
    Your screenshots, it looks like there are labels on the server that are not visible in Thunderbird. They may be those containing your mail, and that the mail is not visible in Thunderbird.
    Labels (including all mail) do not disappear unexpectedly, while there must be something you have done. Without more information as you did, I don't know how this can be fixed.

    For the moment to familiarize yourself with the notion of Gmail label.
