For some reason I no longer have Wordpad in the Accessories section. My wife thinks she may have deleted it , but she doesnt know when. How can I get Wordpad back?

Run A Search For Wordpad From The Start Menu And When It's Found Create A New Shortcut.....Or Go To Add/Remove Programs And Then The Add/Remove Windows Components...Click On Acceessories And Then Uncheck Wordpad...Reboot...Then Go Back And Recheck WordPad And Then Reboot Again And It Will Be Back.....Sure Theres An Easier Way But This Will Work Too....

Go To Start Menu Click Run On it.
Type Wordpad (Not Case Sensitive) and Press Ok/Enter button.
If the wordPad Window opens means, it is in your system/machine.
If Present then add a Shortcut to ur desktop or any other place
the Path where the wordpad application located is
"C:\Program Files\Windows NT\Accessories\wordpad.exe"

I guess you have the same problem I had. I lost some components of Windows XP and had to back up files and restore my computer from the master disc that came with computer. I was also successful in retrieving some just miscellanious components by just using the restore feature in the Start Menu>Accessories>System Tools>System Restore. There is always the option of going to a store such as Staples and buying Windows. Truly hope it works

If it doesnt work when you do start > run > wordpad, then you may have actually uninstalled it.
All you have to do is open
Start > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs >Add/Remove Windows Components
Try that

You can access wordpad by doing the following.
start/run/wordpad
The program will open.

If you have your disk you can put it back that way. If it is a ms program go into control panel, add and remove MS programs and you should be able to put it in that way. Other wise there are lots of them on the net for free.
If you look on your start menu you should have a note pad on there.
