What is it you're trying to do? I doubt anyone can help you with your
add/remove programs list - we can't see it from here. Are you having
problems uninstalling software? It's not hard to remove items from the
uninstall list from the registry, but that doesn't uninstall the software -
it just prevents it from showing up. If you're trying to clean up your
machine of junk, you may wish to repost with more detail.

Several people responded to your original post on this issue, including
me, however you haven't responded to the questions posed to you. You
were presented with several alternatives but the best solution really
depends on what happened in the first place which you haven't specified.
I would suggest you go back to the original thread and continue in there.

There is no good tool for what you want. If the programs are orphaned,
then you need to delete the program files, then search through the
registry for their entries and delete hoping you don't create more
problems in the process. Make sure you have a backup of the registry
before making changes. ERUNT is a good tool for that:

In the meantime:

Removing Invalid Entries in the Add/Remove Programs Tool

Locations in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Uninstall

There are other keys. Some things exist in two places.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Installer\Pro ducts
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products

And the above get built here
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\App
Management\ARPCache

Also go to Kelly's site:

Click on the "A" and scroll down to Add / Remove programs for more help.
