Windows XP & Windows 7
 
 

If you dont have any games on Windows 7 and if you want to play Solitaire, you should copy cards.dll from:
windows xp > windows > system32
to
windows 7 > windows > system32

Then open sol.exe for regular solitaire, spider.exe for Spider Solitaire, mshearts.exe for Hearts, freecel.exe for Freecel (duh), winmine.exe for minesweeper and i cant find the other games but thats about it...

I included a ZIP for you if you dont have XP anymore. just extract the dll to your system32 folder

Solitare not in my install of Windows 7 Pro

I hate to say it, but Microsoft appears to be a little too wise for themselves. I just installed Windows 7 Pro and could not find any of the standard windows card games anywhere in the installation. What gives?

control panel > program and features > turn windows features on or off > hit the square before games to enable or disable them all...

how to get solitaire and other games on windows 7

how to get solitaire on windows 7 is easy.
step 1: click on the start menu
2: find and click the control panel
3: look for the programs and features icon & click on it
4: on the left hand side look for a blue& yellow shield that says TURN ON WINDOWS FEATURES ON OR OFF. click on it.
a new window should open up.
5: look for a drop down folder that says games. next to that check the box on the left, then click ok.

Thank you so much! I opened Solitaire, clicked on File>Statistics and there was the Reset! Maybe I can do better this time!
