Vista games deleted

The other day i tried cleaning out my harddisk for programs that I did'nt use.
But by some mistake i must have deleted the original microsft games(I'd
mistaked it by the folder for "halo.")
I don't play the games much. But sometimes I like to play Chess.

Is there anyway i can get them back or restore them.

You can try going into the Control Panel, Programs and Features, on the left
side select Turn Windows features on or off. Then select the games, and it
should reinstall them for you. It might also require you to uncheck it,
click ok, then go back in and check it again.

There are a ton of "free" chess programs online, if you can't get Chess
Titans running again, do a search for "Chess Windows" in Google or "Chess
Open Source" or something.

Good luck,
