Add/Remove Program Not Populating
Add/Remove Program will not populate. Let it run for 45 minutes, nothing.
Have no clue as to why it stopped or when. Searched all websites, think I
reregisted all files one said too.. but stumped now. Any suggestions?

Try the many suggestions here. Scroll down to the Add/Remove Programs
section:

Elmo, thanks for the help, but it did not work. Downloaded the file and ran
it, it said white space removed, but still will not populate.

Try to run a scan for malware and viruses then open a run command and type in:
sfc /scannow click [OK] let it run, it will may be ask you for the XP CD
installation media so get it ready.
Did you tried system restore to when thing were working fine?.

Re: Add/Remove Program Not Populating
I have read and tried everything listed in this forum. Add/Remove still not
populating. Wife purchased the computer last August, we did not receive any
startup disks. The cleanboot is too complicated for me right now, guess I am
going to have to call the Geek Squad. Thanks a million for all your help.

HP Pavilian XP SP2 Media Addition which I did not include earlier. Learning.

Re: Add/Remove Program Not Populating
Before you go spending money on Geek Squad, wait a little longer for a
solution. In the mean time you can use this free app that will do and is the
same thing as Add/Remove.It's called MyUninstaller and you can get it here.

If you do decide to pay for someone to help you, stay as far away as
possible from the Geek Squad (or any of the other big chains). They
are the worst possible sources of help.

Instead, look for an independent local service shop, preferably one
that's been recommended by others in your area. If you have a local PC
Users Group, that's a good place to go for recommendations.

Thanks Joe , that uninstaller works great, I finaly could get rid of
that damm Easy CD &DVD Creator 6 , was giving me the popup like when I
was copying and paste , this Popup would come up, saying Easy cd
installer is installing. My normal window XP add and remove will
not populate, I tried everything.
Thanks
