Programs and Components

[lgbeast]

When in the programs and components list in windows 7, I can no longer see all the programs installed on my system.

This happened a week or so after I got the computer.

It would really help if I had access to all programs through that function.
Thanks

What is this list and what are you trying to do. I am not aware of a programs and components list - there is programs and features though.

Hi, Welcome to SF,

Can you post a screenshot ??

 

[lgbeast]

sorry

Im talking about the list of all the installed programs previously known as the "Add/Remove Programs Feature" in windows xp.

So that is "Programs and Features". What exactly do you want to do ? That list is for uninstalling programs. if it does not work, try Revo. Revo Uninstaller Pro - Uninstall Software, Remove Programs, Solve uninstall problems

It simply does not display all the programs installed

It works all right, I just dont see all programs installed which gets annoying, i just want to know whether theres some way i can get it to display everything

How do you know it does not show all the programs?

 

[lgbeast]

I know it doesnt show all the programs because i have programs installed which are not on the list.

Open C and go to Program files. Are the programs you are looking for shown in that folder?

I suggest you start your own thread - and if possible in a language that people understand.

Firstly, Windows 7 does not have, and never had an Add/Remove Programs entry in Control Panel. It's now called Programs and Features.

Secondly, not all programs add themselves to the "Uninstall a Program" list in Control Panel.
Some programs have no uninstaller because they don't need one. In these cases the program can be "uninstalled" simply by locating where the program is installed and deleting it.

Most programs install to "C:\Program Files" and do so by creating a folder therein named either either for the program, or perhaps for the company that made it.

You can probably just delete that folder and its contents to "uninstall" the program.
One safety note: if you're not sure, rename that folder, reboot, and use your machine for a while. If no errors pop up because the software or other components couldn't be found, then that's an additional indicator that deleting might be safe.

Some very simple (in terms of installation) programs just come as a single ".exe" file. All you need to do is locate and delete that file and you're done.

Hope this helps.
