Busted Progs in "Add and Remove Programs"
This is a discussion about Busted Progs in "Add and Remove Programs" in the Windows Software category; You know when you install a program and then it sucks and you want to uninstall it but for some reason it says in your Add and Remove programs list even after you supposedly delete it? Where would I go about and look for the place in the registry or wherever that those programs are listed so I can delete it myself ...

Where would I go about and look for the place in the registry or wherever that those programs are listed so I can delete it myself out of the list manually?

TweakUI allows you to remove entries from the Add/Remove Programs list without having to touch the registry.

thats what i remembered but for some reason in my tweakui i can't find that option anywhere... did they remove that with newer versions?
Interesting - I never noticed that it was missing until now...
Xteq's X-Setup also has this ability, among many others.

That's bizarre - neither did I!! I just went on the assumption that it's been there since Win95, so why remove it?
Ah well, that will teach me to check before I type

Yeah.. I knew I wasn't seeing things... Anyhoo that RegCleaner program is nice and small and does the trick.
