Default Deleting Programs

Pinball seems to be setup in a different way.
In C:\program files\windowsnt\pinball (a folder).
Then in C:\windows\inf and C:\windows\help
Finally in C:\windows\system32\dllcache is the
back up .exe for pinball.

I use a free program to locate items in Windows.
It is faster and does a more complete search,
then the Windows search feature.
Agentransack (free version).http://www.mythicsoft.com/agentransack


Hi Beamish -

Thank you for the clarifying data on where Pinball is buried and for
the tip on the better Find program. I find myself doing in Windows
exactly what I did over the years in Macintosh: discovering and
adding terrific freeware programs that beat the pants off their
equivalent that comes with the operating system.

One of the Mac equivalents of Agentransack don't like the ransack
part of that name! is NotLight, meaning not Searchlight, Searchlight
being the native Apple search utility. It's buggy and doesn't find
everything. NotLight finds everything.

Again, thanks for the help.
Carl
