Is Spider Solitaire included in Windows 7? I can't find it.

I have a computer with Windows 7 Home Premium on it and I read a lot of articles on how to get Free Cell, Spider, Solitaire, Mine Sweeper and Hearts on Windows 7 but nothing seemed to work.  By accident I clicked on the little round "start" button located in the lower left corner of the screen and typed in s p i d e r and low and behold a program listing showed up above that could be dragged onto the desktop as an Icon.  So from what I know all the old games are contained in Win 7 Home Premium addition just not shown anywhere which will make a lot of people buy new games listed on the Game Explorer screen.

thank you, thank you, thank you. it worked.

Hi,

·         Click the Start button ,  click Control Panel , click Programs , and then under Programs and Features , click Turn Windows features on or off .

·         Select the Games check box, and then click OK .

But I can not install soliter or spider solieter.

I couldn't find it either.  In another similar letter, "Mike" MS Support suggested what you did here but turning the game off then on again.  It was checked as being on in Turn Windows features on or off in my computer but unchecking then checking the box again fixed the problem.
