I know he said _deleted_ but (and this does not necessarily apply to
the OP) some people out there are too computer illiterate to know the
difference between delete, uninstall and turn off a windows feature
which is why I asked how he deleted it. Nowhere in his message does he
say that he went to the folder and deleted the folder and all its
contents, although this is likely.

Just as I suggested in my original post.
