Add/Remove Program won't work

skidz15 · 11-05-2009, 06:50 PM

Hi,

I can not get my Add/Remove Program window to work. It just keeps saying populating list. I have Windows XP with Service Pack 3.

Thanks for your help!

regsvr32 mshtml.dll

regsvr32 shdocvw.dll -I

regsvr32 shell32.dll -I

To remove the entry, run regedit.

Navigate to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

Find the entry and delete it.

Thanks suzzan and chenggangsheng!

suzzan- When I enter regsvr32 mshtml.dll I get the following message:

mshtml.dll was loaded, but the DllRegisterServer entry point was not found. This file can not be registered.

The other 2 loaded fine.

chenggangsheng- I deleted the entry there.

My Add/Remove Program is now running!! Thanks!!
