Where is Microsoft Tinker ?

Hi,

I just used Windows Update to install Microsoft Tinker on my Vista
Ultimate x64.
Everything went OK.
However, I couldn't find it anywhere to play with it.

Anything wrong, please ?

Alan

Hello Alan,

It should have been added to the Games Explorer window in the Start
Menu. This tutoriral will help show you this location if needed.

'Games Explorer Link - Fix'

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Did you check in Games Explorer?

Check in the Start > All Programs > Games > Microsoft Tinker. Or in the
Games Explorer. If it's not there, try the Windows Updates again and see if
it shows up. It may not have installed correctly.

I had the same problem and resolved it by installing all available
Ultimate Extras. I hope that this helps.
