Default Trying to remove a program from the Add or Remove Program list


I have a program that I am trying to remove from the Add or Remove Programs
window in the Control Panel. I am not sure what the program is. When I
click on Change/Remove, I get this message: "Unable to locate the
installation file 'C:\Program Files\Ligos\Indeo\Unist.isu'. Uninstallation
will not continue." Undoubtly the program was removed in the past. How can
I get this removed from my add or remove list in the control panel? Thanks.

Start>Run>Regedit>OK
Now navigate to:-

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Uninstall

Double click on 'Unistall'or,expand it- programs are listed in the
left-hand panel-highlight the program(correct subkey for the program)to
be removed and delete it.

Alternatively- you can reinstall Indeo and then you have to properly
uninstall that.

Hi William
Google search Crap Cleaner or try this link
http://www.ccleaner.com/
Under tools it will remove the entry.
