Microsoft Money...I'm an idiot

[Guest]

I think I might have deleted a file that my Microsoft Money runs on. When I
click the icon, it thinks for a minute then does nothing. It will not open.
The program came already installed on my computer. I have Windows XP Home
Edition. Is there anyway I can restore this without having to reinstall
everything over again and lose everything else. It is not in my recycle bin.
I need some help, so anything you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

If you don't have a separate disk for MM, then check your restore disk as
some will let you reinstall just the apps you want.

My restore disks only have: Drivers, Audio and something else. I have
search all the disks and the files on them to no avail. Thanks though, good
thought.

Frankly MS Money standard is available very cheap this time of year.
Rebates and discounts bring it down to very little and sometimes nothing.

Since it appears you did not get the restore disk you should have when
you got your computer, it may just be easier to buy a standard copy and
forget the one that came with the computer.

BTW never buy a computer that does not come with full restore disks.

If Money was pre-installed, you will need to contact the vendor who sold you
the computer. They are the only source for information on how to reinstall
these programs.

Thank you Ronnie. I think I'm just going to buy the standard copy. It seems
like it maybe less of a hassle. Thank you.
