    My 12 year old grandson by accident, he says did delete system tools that is located in accessories. How do I reinstall it? Where do I find the file?

    Thanks Jerry

    Use System Restore to go back to a restore point that was prior to the removal.

    You can access System Restore from Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore.

    Another option...

    Jerry,

    The tools are still there, you just lost the shortcuts.

    You can re-create the shortcuts on the Start Menu.
    Right-click the 'Start' button, then select 'Explore'. This should open Windows Explorer to the 'Programs' folder. Open this folder and you should see all your programs that are listed on the StartMenu. Create a new folder, name it 'System Tools', then use the 'highlighted' locations of the System Tools to create new shortcuts in your new folder. Post back and let us know if you have anymore problems.

    B :cool:
