I have quite a number of items in Add/Remove Programs that are missing the
Remove button. When I look in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall I find
very few entries. Is there a way to restore the missing items so that
Add/Remove Programs will work? If not what are my options?

Thanks,

Ron
 
Use the programs' own uninstall utility, or reinstall the programs to regain
the entries in 'Add or Remove Programs'. I would try the former.
 
Ted, thanks for the edea but small problem with that. The program that I am
having a problem with is Java. There are two old versions showing. There is
NO uninstall that I can find in the Jave files. If I try to re-install it I
get a message that says the latest is already installed. I am just trying to
get rid of those old versions.

Thanks,

Ron
 
Did you ever find a solution to your problem. I am having the same issue
with Mcafee virus scan.
