374221 2005-07-22 03:57:00 When I checked the add/remove programs in Control Panel the list has disappeared. I have TweakUI but no programs are listed there which I can make visible. I am running Win ME. bpt2 (6653)
374222 2005-07-22 04:23:00 If you're comfortable working with the registry, try this:

Start the Registry Editor (REGEDIT.EXE) and navigate to this key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Uninstall

Have a look and see if your installed progs are listed here.

Make a backup of this 'Uninstall' registry key (File Menu/Export) to your desktop or somewhere, and/or export your whole registry. Then delete just the Uninstall key. Reboot.

Just double-click the exported Uninstall key to reinstall it to the registry.

Also look here:

HTH :)

Ooops - just noticed you're running ME. But the Uninstall key should still be there.
