The reinstallation of Wordpad goes on "Windows Components add / remove". However, it is hidden by default Wordpad.
Search SYSOC.INF the file in the Windows subdirectory Inf These open with an editor.
Or type in "Run" a:
Code:
% SYSTEMROOT% \ inf \ SYSOC.INF
Search the line
Code:
MSWordPad = ocgen.dll, OcEntry, wordpad.inf, HIDE, 7
In this line, delete the HIDE.
Looks like this (before the 7-point twice!):
Code:
MSWordPad = ocgen.dll, OcEntry, wordpad.inf,, 7
Then on the "Start" "Set Program Access and Defaults" to open.
Choose "Windows Components add / remove". Among the details of "Accessories and Utilities" turn the details of "accessories" menu.
There is now an entry "Wordpad", simply by putting a hook to install Wordpad then new (only if necessary to remove the hook thereon Wordpad to uninstall, and then set the hook in order to re-install - such as when the old installation was faulty ).
PS: With the removal of the HIDE can also be other Windows components on Windows Components add / remove "to uninstall, which is otherwise not needed, but not by default available to uninstall, for example on the Microsoft Messenger
Code:
msmsgs = msgrocm.dll, OcEntry, msmsgs.inf,, 7
