Open a explorer window and paste this into the bar at the top: %SystemRoot%\System32\

These are the windows game names:

spider.exe (spider solitaire)
freecell.exe (freecell)
mshearts.exe (hearts)
bckgzm.exe (internet backgammon)
chkrzm.exe (internet checkers)
hrtzzm.exe (internet hearts)
Rvsezm.exe (internet reversi)
shvlzm.exe (internet spades)
winmine.exe (mine sweeper)
PINBALL.EXE (pinball)
sol.exe (solitaire)


If you want them I suggest you check the microsoft website, or use the XP disk to install as I think it has them under the "install extra features"
Just put the disk in while your logged on and find it.

-Edit-

This folder:
%SystemRoot%\System32\

This is the name:
dfrg.msc
 
Nope Not There The Other Parts For The Defrager Is There I Even Unhidden files and the dfrg.msc not there. I Might Ask Microsoft Bought It
 
Well theres all kinds of programs you can download for defragmenting and they are usually much better so I wouldn't worry about it too much.
