Hi,
There are times when we want to unistall some programs via Add or Remove Programs and they simply aren't listed.
To workaround this, you can use the folder c:\windows\intaller.
How?
Simply right-click on the column header, like "date" e.g. and choose "Comments". From this point on, you will have the Comments column.
One test, check for the Windows Live Messenger in Add/ Remove Programs, it won't be there. Go to C:\windows\installer and you can see it's description in comments.
Right-click, choose uninstall and that's it.
Note: there are some programs that do not get "comment".
Hope this helps someone,
Kind regards,
CatFish
