WinDoze Delima
Since I have installed Windoze XP Pro I have not been able to see all the programs listed in the Add/Remove programs dialog. Anyone Have this problem?
I see most of the programs installed but not all of the programs. And most of the programs are windows compatible.But they still do not show up. How do I correct this?

Not all installed programs show up in add/remove programs.
Is there something that you want to uninstall that doesn't appear?

Uninstall
Yes there are a few things i want to uninstall. I have tried going to the program file and tried to use its uninstall.exe. But I get a message saying that It has to be removed from the Add/Remove Programs. And I am logged in as the Admin.

Found the problem
In WinDoze SP2 it seems like some of the add/Remove Programs Icons default to -1 in the system registry. And the registry notices any numerical character with the exception of the -1.
These can be Modified (But be extremely careful) Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Uninstall\ ........... When you get to this point the keys can be modified to show a default icon... Also most of the programs could be found by scrolling to the bottom of the Add/Remove Programs Window. The ones that were not listed I modified manually. Thanks Again, Ragman
