re XP Uninstall Programs Listing Glitch

[Roy Sharp]

If the list is stopping in the A's and you have
AutoCad installed, run

the edit on line 226 - Right hand side
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm

If this is not the case, remove the last program listed from here or change
the DefaultIcon value to a non-negative number.

Start/Run/Regedit
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Uninstall

after the Autocad listing. Since I'm only vaguely
familiar with regedit, I'm a bit confused on the
corrective action. You advise to run edit on line 226.
Could you please explain in greater detail what this
consists of? I navigated to
hkey_local_machine\software\microsoft\windows\currentversi
on\windows but got lost regarding line 226.

Also, I see others having same type of problem with
Uninstall. Is MS coming out with a fix?

Download what file??

Go to line 226, click "Remove the White Space from Add or Remove," this will
produce dialog to download a zipped file, once download, extract that file
with a unzipping application, there are many free and shareware such apps
available if you don't have one, just do a search at www.google.com, then
double click the file extracted from the downloaded zip file and that file
will execute a command to make the necessary change in the registry.
