Removing Hearts and FreeCell

[Jim]

How can I remove the Windows games? I have Windows XP-
Home. I have tried to use the Control Panel: "Add/Remove
Programs, using the "Add/Remove Windows Components" and
selecting (chekking the box) the games subcomponent of
Accessories. When the utility finishes the games are
still accessible, even after a restrart.

What is the trick??

Thanks, I guess the checking and unchecking was not
intuitive (at least to me). Your helpful directions were
quite helpful. It a shame MS doesn't waste a little
space and add two rows, one for ADD and one for REMOVE.
Alas, too simple.

Again - thank you

Jim

Investing a little time in Help and Support would have given you the
same info, Jim.
