    First check out, if you actually deleted Solitaire:

    1. Go to Start then click "Run"
    2. Insert this: "sol.exe" (without the quotes)

    If solitaire opens, then it means it's on your computer, in that case, go to: C:\Windows\System 32 and look for the file called "sol.exe" and drag it to your desktop.

    If Solitaire didn't open from run (i.e you have actually deleted it) then Try this:

    1. Go to the Control Panel
    2. Open "Add/Remove Programs"
    3. Along the left side, click "Add/Remove Windows Components"
    4. Double click the "Accessories and Utilities" option
    5. Double click the "Games" option
    6. Select "Solitaire" 
    7. Click OK two the two screens you just opened
    8. When you're back to the orignal window, click "Next" and Windows should install the game.
