Remove items from the uninstall list
-------------------------------------------------

Have you tried to uninstall a program from the add/remove programs list and
it didn't remove the item from the list? Is that item stuck there no matter
what you do? Try this. Load Regedit. Go to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Uninstall

You will see a list of programs. Select the one that you want to delete,
press delete, confirm it by clicking yes and the item will disappear.


Note: You can also delete items form the list using Microsoft Powertoys
which you can find on the Microsoft website.
