Remove Program From Add/Remove Programs

Posted Jan 14, 2005 by David Risley  

If you have uninstalled a program but it remains on the list in Add/Remove Programs, you can manually remove it by navigating to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Microsoft > Windows > CurrentVersion > Uninstall.

You’ll see a list of all the programs available in your Add/Remove Programs Control Panel. You can simply select an entry from the list on the left, press the Delete key, and confirm to remove it. Close the Registry Editor and restart Windows; the item will be gone from your Add/Remove Programs list.
