I have in another thread been trying to get rid of some minor annoyances concerning Windows live id. Among other stuff i used add/remove windows components in the add/remove programs menu. I checked Windows messenger and MSN Explorer, it did some stuff, and also removed Outlook express, Windows media player, Internet Explorer, calc.exe and all the in-built games. Some of these were options with tick boxes, but i only selected messenger and MSN. What has happened? I have had no problem restoring all of the above, IExplorer, Outlook and Media Player could easily be reinstalled using add/remove components, put i cant help but wonder what else is gone. I restored calc and the games by copying the corresponding .exe's from another Windows XP, so you dont have to worry about that. The items in the list are: Other file- and writer services for network, Fax service, Indexing service, Internet Explorer, MSN Explorer, Network Services, Outlook Express, Additions and tools, Updating of root certificate, Tool for handling and surveillance, Windows media player and Windows messenger,
