Hey guys, i have got a problem with uninstalling a few problems. There doesn't seem to be a Change or Remove button for a few of them, and also i can't seem to find a lot of windows updates that i had done snce before 4 months. I have put a pic of it below. Thanks for any feedback.

I have a couple of phantom programs showing up too. There is no way I can see to remove them.

I have not scoured my registry yet, but that might be a step if you are comfortable going through the registry. Just make sure you have a backup of it, and then do a search for anything related to the program.

Ok, this is nt how to remove that program, but Sami covered that in another post for you, so i will not duplicate that.
As far as updates, when service packs are released, MS releases patches in the updates to condense the number of entries in your add/remove programs. They are still there, have no fear, they are just listed as a single package instead of thousands of singles
As far as phantom programs are consernd they may be located in un-serachable folders, or be sub routines of larger programs, these can both be seen with the program process explorer.

Oh no, i dont want to uninstall .NET Framework, i just showed that there. I have a lot of programs like that which i cannot uninstall, and which asks me to install again, so now i have got 2 JAVA's in the Add or Remove Programs Page. Is there any way of making all the programs installed on my comp to be shown as normal? LIke with the Change and Remove parts in the Add or Remove Section?

ive used a program called uninstaller 2004 that came free with a disc with 'pcanswers'

I found out that u can uninstall with other softwares also, but i would like to be able to do it from Add or Remove Programs itself, so i need it to be normal. So does anybody know how i can make it back to normal?
