Properly deleting games (3 posts)

My XP Home came with 11 games pre-installed. What is the correct way to remove these games to gain disk space?

Nothing shows in Add-Remove Programs in Control Panel. On right- clicking "Games" from Start > All programs, there is a "Delete" option. Does this delete the games and all their files or just the entry in All Programs?

Hey

If they are windows games they should be able to be reomved via the widows ad remove windows componets (its on the left in add/remove compontents).

Or if they are pre installed games (OEM SOFTWARE) you could unistall them via add remove software.

That will do a whole nothin if you delet em from there go to My Comp---> the Control Panel ---> Add Remove Programes ----> then go to Add/ Remove Windows Componets then wait for them to load. Then click on Accecories and Utilities and u will see a checked box with game. Click on it, then click on apply. I hope this helps. I'm not real good at explaining on how to do things but this should help u. I have typed it the best way I can. Just email me at brian.hill@optusnet.com.au and tell me how u go.

Good luck
