Windows XP removing games

[nlsharma]

Hello everybody

I need help in removing games from all the pc's in the company and i have tried by deleting the game executables but the keep coming back on their own. I know i can do it through add remove programs but since i wan't to do it for all the machines is there a easy way out. So that i can do this transparent to the users and besides do not have to visit each desktop to uninstall games.

Thanks
Neil Sharma

Is this a domain environment? Isn't there a policy you can set to disable games?

PS. You need to edit sysoc.inf to 'unhide' accessories & games before you can remove them from add/remove programs.

After deleting the games (which ever way you choose to do so) edit policies so that users can not install programs without administrative privledges.
