Can't remove dummy programs from Add/Remove in WinME

[AlphanumericSux]

I havn't been able to remove a couple of dummy programs from my add/remove.<BR>I Couldn't find them using Run>Regedit>HKey_Localmachine>Software>Microsoft>WIndows>CurrentVersion>Uninstall.<BR>Is there another way I can get rid of them? I'm trying to reinstall one of the programs and it acts as if its still installed.

Hey AlphanumericSux! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"><BR><BR>That registry hack only works if you have already uninstalled the program but is left inside Add/Remove Programs.<BR><BR>What I would try if I were you is, remove all the entries of that software in the registry.

I tried that also. I deleted everthing I could find of that program (after uninstalling) and it still remains in my add/remove. I still cant install the program because it thinks it's already in there.

Hmm... That's a very tough one there. <BR><BR>Hmm, if your uninstalled program is still in the Add/Remove programs I would think you deleted the wrong directory in the uninstall folder.<BR><BR>What program are you having difficulties with?

Just a couple of games. I deleted the files I found from the above path. When that didnt work I deleted everything I found with those program names. Still didn't work.
