tal ormanda Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 (edited) I seem to have lost all my screen savers some how or another, is there a folder where these sit so I can get them from someone, possibly one of you, and put them in there?(Windows XP Home Edtion) Edited October 9, 2007 by tal ormanda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morocco31477 Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Screen savers are in the \system32 folder and have a .scr extension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idontwantspam Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Open search (Windows key + F)in the file name box, type .scr. Any screen savers should appear. If you have an i386 folder, look there. They're probably out there on the internet somewhere for download, or you can copy them from a friend's machine. ALL versions of windows xp have the same screensavers by default, though media center 2005 has a few as part of the microsoft plus pack that comes with it.

tal ormanda Posted October 9, 2007 Author Share Posted October 9, 2007 (edited) Don't have i386 anymore. Guess I'll have to get em off another computer. Edited October 9, 2007 by tal ormanda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idontwantspam Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 They may be hiding. Did you do a search? Oh, and when searching, choose advanced options and check search system files. 'Cause those are "system" files. Are there ANY screensavers at all, even the standard one with the XP logo? If they're not there anywhere, that's odd, since windows file protection protects screensavers, I think. Anyhow, if you have your xp cd, you may be able to find them on the cd somewhere.

Idontwantspam Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 D'oh! Well, you'll have to find them on the cd or from a friend I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
