After opening and setting up Windows Vista on my new notebook there are
several icons on the desktop for programs I wish to uninstall. Many of
these programs do not appear in the Control Panel's Add or Remove Program
list. Should I simply delete the desktop icons? How can I be sure there is
no underlying install program?
 
right click open file location. see if there is a uninstall in there if not
just delete everything in there
 
Deleting the icon only deletes the shorcut to the program. If it is a windows
component, you can't remove the program; you can only hide it.
