Question

I cannot find the calculator which is usually found under accessories either in Explorer or through the file search features. How do I find the exe file so I can add it into my start up menu as well as my start/program/accessories folder?

Hi Lori,
Go to Start/Settings/Control Panel/Add Remove Programs/Windows Set Up Tab. Click on accessories, then details. You should see an option to add the calculator and a few other things it you'd like. OK your way out.

Lori,
You didn't mention what version of Windows you are using, but, try this, click on "Start" |"Find"| "Files or Folders", type in "calc.exe", without the quotes and tell it to look in: [C:], it should be listed under C:\Windows. HTH

This worked. Thank you. Now I've got to figure out how to get it within my start/programs/accessories drop down menu.
I set it up as a shortcut on my taskbar and desktop. That should work for now.

Happy holidays.

p.s. I like your dog photos.
