I performed a new install on my existing hard drive. Is there any way to get
XP to recognize the programs on the hard drive in the old Programs folder?
I was afraid that would be the answer. Then, how do I remove the programs
from the hard drive if I want to free up the disk space without them listed
in the Add/Remove programs list in control program. Will deleting the old
program file affect my new installation of XP?
Did you perform a repair, or a clean install? If you've done a repair
installation, then most of your already installed programs should work fine.
Which folder are you referring to? Type CMD /K SET in Start, Run dialog to
know the Program Files path for the current installation of Windows.
