My games icons (chess, majong, etc) are present, but when I click to open, the game doesn't start. Instead, windows explorer opens to my "saved games" section even though I don't have any saved games.

If you go directly to the game application file and click it does it work okay?

Program Files > Microsoft Games > Chess ( etc.)

If so, then right-click the application > Send to > Desktop (create shortcut).

If the new shortcuts work right, delete the old ones.
