is there a way to reinstall some programs i had when i first got my computer. like if i got annoyed of a program so i uninstalled it, but now i want it back and i dont want to reboot my entire computer again

Depends on what you took off the computer. If it's actually part of windows it'll be in add or remove features in the programs control panel. If it is bundled software that came with your computer from the manufacturer, then you’ll have to find the discs that came bundled with your computer or go to the manufacturer’s website and download them. What is it you’re missing?

on my laptop its nero

on my dekstop i accidently uninstalled some other CD/DVD burning software, i forgot what its called. when i was trying to remove another program, i accidently clicked on the other one and it didnt say click ok or cancel, it just straight up removed it

You most likely deleted Roxio. Unfortunately it costs $60 if you want to replace it ( Roxio - DVD Burning & CD Burning Software - Creator & Toast Software ). But if you Google "CD burn software", you will find a selection of several free programs. If you want to burn videos, I can recommend the free DVD Flick ( DVD Flick ).

How long ago did you uninstall it ? System restore to a point before you uninstalled it should get it back.

Of course that will affect other installs / uninstalls you have done since then as well.

i remember now, i uninstalled NTI from my desktop. even if i restore my system to a previous point it never worked before, all it did was restore my options it never seened to restore files, and if i tried to restore files, it just restored part of them and pretty much made the program corrupt. basically it never worked for me on any computer.

If you only burn data discs, InfraRecorder is a great choice. InfraRecorder » Welcome If you require some specialized burning (audio cds, dvd-video, etc) then you'll have to search through your cds to see if you still have the install discs that should have came with the computer. If you specify what you need your burner to do, I'm sure we could all suggest some alternatives for you.

hm, well i know a few programs i can get easily. i was just curious if there was a way. also my computer did not come with any discs, the reboot program along with all its software came with the computer. i have to press like alt+Shft+F10 while the computer starts to access the reboot menu

Gotcha, if restore doesn't help and you don't have the discs I'm out of ideas. Best of luck getting back up and running!
