Windows 7 games file location

Question

On Windows XP, the FreeCell executable was located in the X:\WINDOWS\System32\ folder, named freecell.exe. Where can I find the game files in the case of Windows 7, provided that the game is playable on the current Windows 7 installation and is visible through the Games Explorer?

Answer 1

Freecell, Hearts, etc. are located in the appropriate subfolders under X:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\ (although I've heard others say they're still in System32). Note that these are special executables with .mui companion files, and won't work on earlier versions of Windows.

Answer 2

It's located at:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\FreeCell\
