Solitaire has given millions of people a distraction from work for years. But now you have accidentally uninstalled solitaire on your computer, or maybe your boss has done so on your behalf. Luckily, you can get back to your love of solitaire in a few simple steps. You do not even have to download solitaire from the Internet. Rather, you can simply reinstall solitaire from the Control Panel in Microsoft Windows 7.

Click “Start.” Go to “Control Panel.”

Click "Programs and Features." (If you do not see "Programs and Features", simply change "View by" to "Large Icons" in the upper-right of your control panel.) In the left column, click "Turn Windows features on or off."

Click on "Games" to place a check in that box. Go to "Solitaire" and place a check in that box by clicking it. Click "OK." Windows 7 will reinstall Solitaire for you.
