Was in add components of home edition cd. Things were checked marked. IE6,
Outlook Express and in accessories wordpad and paint got removed. Don't see
them in start-programs or in add/remove programs. What method do I use get
everything back? Computer was custom built. I have no manuals. Believe my cd
is not the full program but is a repair/recovery . Thanks Nibor

Go back to Add/Remove. On the left of the window you will see some more
icons. Click on the Add/Remove Windows Components icon. In the windows
component wizard window place a tick mark next to Accessories and Utilities.
Then scroll down until you see Outlook expresss and place a tick next to
that. Finally click next and the components will be configured. When the
configuration wizard finishes click the Finish button and then close
Add/Remove programs and control panel
