Windows XP Compatibility Programme

[Guest]

About three years ago I used the XP compatibility programme to install the
1997 Windows (Office) Photo Editor Programme onto my computer. It is now
conflicting with other photo editing programmes. I wish to remove it but it
does not appear in the 'Control, Add or Remove' list of programmes. I would
like Help please in trying to find how I can 'see' what is in the XP
Compatilibity Programme on my computer so that I can delete the 'Photo
Editor' programme.
Any help would be gratefully received.

Well you didn't need to use compat to install it. If you installed from CD then there are no saved settings from using compatability. Compat basically turns on bug mode. Some programs depend on old bugs to work. The compat applied to Setup.exe and only while it ran.

It should be in the list under office.

Run the Office 97 install program and selectively remove the components
you don't want.
