my wife just came to me with her laptop. she somehow deleted a program unintentionally (lenovo photo master along with many photos) from the computer that she did not intend to. she does not know if she deleted it, uninstalled it, or ??? she was trying to reset her default browser after following a link that our daughter sent her, to watch a video clip. i checked to see if the program was still listed in control panel-programs, but it is gone. the good news is she has not restarted the computer, so i hope whatever she did can be reversed. on a side note to this, i found an icon on the desktop that was labeled "removed apps" that has the "e" of the edge browser as an icon. this however is from may 10, not today. i have told her repeatedly NOT to mess with things, if there is a problem, to come and see me. but i can not get to upset, she is not working on all cylinders, as she had a small stroke several years ago. i an half tempted to do the one button restore thing, but one thing i do know is if i do not know the answer for sure, to come here and ask first. its a lot easier than trying to fix things after the fact. so can this be repaired fairly easily, or do i need to take this to a shop?
