Can't Add/Remove Programs
This is a discussion about Can't Add/Remove Programs in the Customization Tweaking category; I have 4 files(?) listed in the Add/Remove Programs window, all with the same name: Setup. exe custom database. I have been unable to find any of them on my hard drive or remove them from Add/Remove Programs.
I have 4 files(?) listed in the Add/Remove Programs window, all with the same name: Setup.exe custom database. I have been unable to find any of them on my hard drive or remove them from Add/Remove Programs.
When I try to envoke the Add/Remove command a pop-up window appears saying:
error: couldn't open SDB
c:\WINNT\AppPatch\Custom\{eec0090-6442-4de5-8092- 3818964749ca}.sdb
As I attempt to remove each of the files listed as Setup.exe custom database, the error message remains the same, except the values between the { and } are different.
I have attempted using RegCleaner. While it lists one "setup.exe custom database" listing, when I attempt to remove it the file simply reappears.
Any ideas?
