Where are the games in Windows 7 Professional?

Former title: Microsoft Games

I bought Windows 7 Professional 64 Bit & he came with all Microsoft Free Cell and Spider Solitaire games. How can I get these titles form Microsoft?

Hello
 
 
By default, the games that come with Windows are extinguished, in the Professional editions.

To turn on Windows games
a. click the Start button, select Control Panel, click programs and then under programs and features, click Turn Windows features turn on or off.
b. Select the Games check box, and then click OK.
For more information, refer to the article below.

I hope this helps.

Thank you, and in what concerns:

    You can get the old solitaire and other games back. See
    http://www.howtogeek.com/122145/what-happened-to-Solitaire-and-Minesweeper-in-Windows-8/

    See also http://winaero.com/blog/get-windows-7-games-for-windows-10/
    This was written for the new Windows 10, but it also applies to the
    Windows 8.0/8.1

    Also note that as Chess software, Chess Titans plays very badly.
    There are several good choices like Deep Fritz and Rybka.

  • Where are the games?

    Why are there not all games in Windows 7 Professional. I miss the old Windows Classic, and none of them are there. Professionals not play games? Their lives must be pretty boring.

    Go to control panel, then click on uninstall a program and on the left side there is a link that reads featurs Windows turn on or off.  Click on this link and you will be able to activate the games from there.  Just scroll down the list and you will find it.

  • Where are the drivers for Windows 8?

    I have a HP Pavilion dv7-6178us Entertainment Notebook PC. I can't find drivers for this laptop for Windows 8. Anyone know where I can find them? This machine is less than a year, so an upgrade path should be available.

    Thank you

    The system has been upgraded to Windows 8 by doing exactly as described in this document for the upgrade method?
    http://goo.GL/6Feqo

    If a system is officially expected to receive Windows 8 depends on various factors, including when the device has been manufactured and not only the sold date. Much of this is based on internal tests of Windows 8 units. If it turns out that Windows 8 does not play well with some hardware components, then it cannot receive official Windows 8 drivers and software. The reason is that the reputation of Microsoft and HP go up on the user experience of this laptop with Windows 8. HP said it is registered for Windows 8, so he was not properly tested and delivered a bad experience, then that user HP and Microsoft will be tarnished based on the bad behavior of Windows 8 and incompatible hardware. Unfortunately, this often happens with major operating system changes. The metro system that uses Windows 8 did not exist before Windows 8 and it will change the hardware requirements as well as software. A similar experience happened with the transition from Windows XP to Windows Vista. A lot of hardware and software was not compatible despite XP compatible mode in Vista.

    That being said, I've upgraded my old laptop bought in 2010 for Windows 8. For the most part, Windows 7 drivers worked without any problems once .NET Framework 3.5 has been activated. You can try to use the Windows 7 drivers to see if that makes a difference in the meantime. It was a similar method used when Windows 7 is released. Many people had success using drivers Vista to 7, but not all the world is.

    To activate the setting, go to the start and search screen to uninstall a program. Expand the settings option to reveal this option.

    Once which is open, select Add/Remove components windows on the left and check that the .NET Framework 3.5 is enabled. It is usually disabled by default in Windows 8 with my experience.

    Once this is allowed, try the Windows 7 software and drivers. It is not guaranteed that some will work and some won't. Bluetooth drivers for my laptop were not compatible with Windows 8, and I had to use what Windows 8 pilots were there for her. I also noticed that my fingerprint reader works anywhere, with the exception of the login screen which is where it has been used most in Windows 7. Your experience may be different, because there more than likely very different hardware that my laptop has.

    Yet once, it is not approved by HP, but it can work for your needs in Windows 8. Windows 7 can provide the best experience until Windows 8 official drivers are released. Just to note, it is possible that your laptop will not receive Widnows 8 drivers. I don't know the results internal analysis which may be held or a roadmap for mobile before the release of Windows 8 and Windows 8.

  • Where are the files of Windows Mail messages and contacts stored in Windows 7?

    I backed up a Windows 7 system and restored to factory State by doing a restore of the system because the system has been seriously infected by viruses.  I couldn't do the export before the system recovery.

    Now, given the Windows 7 system restore brand new I am trying to restore Windows Mail account.  In fact, I can't tell if it was a front window Mail or Windows Live Mail.  I don't know if the locations of the files for messages and contacts of these two letters are different.

    When I go to c:\users\%username%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\, I don't see Windows Live Mail but Windows Mail.  So does that mean it was a Windows Mail system not a before Windows Live Mail System.  I copied the files saved in Windows Mail system on the same path directory in the newly recovered system, but it doesn't seem to make a difference when I open Windows Live Mail, which is the only e-mail program on the newly recovered Windows 7 system.

    Can someone confirm the locations of the files to messages and contacts, Windows Mail and Windows Live Mail in the operating system Windows 7 home.  Can I just copy the files on?  With Outlook 2007 and 2010, she usually works if I simply copy the files or import from the saved file.  Also should which file names be so that I can easily identify them?  Are the mail accounts and password setup to re - enter as Outlook 2007/2010 or are stored in the files I can simply copy to the new system?

    Windows Live Mail is supported in this forum

  • Are the games that are compatible with Vista, they are also compatible for Windows 7?

    Are the games that are compatible with Vista, they are also compatible for Windows 7?

    Hello Karen W.

    In large part, Yes.  I didn't fall on one that does not work on Windows 7, which was done on Windows Vista.  But by saying that I haven't met one who does not work on Windows Vista and I have a fairly large library of games.

    The only thing that I actually noticied is lowest for the transition to 64-bit, where the 16-bit applications no longer works, and some games just there about 8 years ago still used 16-bit installers.

  • Where can I get the ISO for Windows 7 Professional edition 64-bit (Spanish)

    Hello

    I can't find a link to download the ISO of Windows 7 professional 64-bit Spanish edition.

    I have a license key and I would like to burn a DVD with this iso, where can I find it?

    For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

    It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

    Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:
