Control Panel Tip

[devil_himself]

To remove the invalid entries from the Add/Remove applet manually [Windows 2000/XP]

1. Start Registry Editor (Regedit.exe).
2. Locate the following key in the registry:
3. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Uninstall
4. Make sure you backup the keys.
5. Look for the name of the program with the invalid entry.
6. Delete the entire listing for the software with the orphaned entry.
7. Close the registry editor.
8. Restart your computer.

At last! I wondered when the devil_himself would finally show up! .... I
guess all the incense, holy water, and litanies did not deter you .. ;)

Black Mirror, that's strange company you keep, but thanks for the referral
--we have too many angels like you and Vivienne here, and Seth needs a
peer. (Just kidding, Seth!)

:welcome: devil_himself! We have quite a few other young members
aboard here. You should be in good company. We appreciate your tips!

Devil, we encourage and appreciate suggestions and comments about
our board. Please post them in the KH Feedback forum for the immediate
attention of our Administrator and Super Moderators.

Our members would be delighted to also have you join us in our
Wednesday KH Computer Help Desk Paltalk chatroom. There you can
receive or give one-on-one, hands-on help for computer problems, alert us
or learn about new developments in computers and software. Computer
subjects get first priority. If there is a lull, then humor, finance, and
whatever can be discussed intermittently. We try not to talk about politics
or religion -- there's enough disagreement about free or paid-for antivirus
and spyware scanners, F-8 and System Restore, motherboards, Linux vs
Vista, and even XP vs Vista!

For more details and instructions on how to get to our chatroom, please
check:
http://www.kickenhardware.net/forum/announcement.php?f=59

We closed the chatroom for the 4th of July holiday and perhaps longer.
Check the forum and your email to learn when our chatroom will resume
opening and whether or not we will continue afternoon hours for our
overseas members.

Devil, do try to join us for our next chatroom session. The camaraderie is
great! :tea:

Again, welcome aboard!

I hope not, because I consider that a compliment:).
