I checked the add/remove programs, there is a lot of stuff in there that I
don't even recognize, but IE and OE and Word, etc. are all gone. There is
stuff in there that I don't even recognize. I use XP. What happened to all my
programs? Thanks for any help.

Internet Explorer and Outlook Express are Windows components and listed
on that "tab"! Word is a component of Microsoft Office 200? unless
installed as a standalone programme.

If you want to know what the programmes not recognised by you try a
Google search / provide a list.

Hope this helps.

The programs have no size to them and no "remove/change" key either. I
uninstalled Yahoo yesterday, but I can't see that making any difference.
Before then, all the programs I had on my pc (including Word, IE, Outlook
Express, any games I installed from a CD, etc.) were all listed in there. Now
they aren't. The only ones I recognize are Winzip and my printer. What
happened to the change/remove button and all the programs?

Try the Add/Remove section of Kelly's page:

That's just about what Gerry told me, but still doesn't solve anything. There
is still no size to the documents nor is there a remove/change key.

Click Start, Run, type Regedit and see if the missing programs are listed in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

If they are we just need to figure out why some aren't shown.
 
Only Belarc is listed in there. It is also found on the Add/Remove in the
Control Panel and is the only one with the size and the change/remove button.
I installed that yesterday.

OE is part of XP and as such does not show under add&remove
IE will only show if you upgraded from IE6
Word is part of Microsoft Office........remove Office you'll remove word.
etc ..can be anything since we have no idea what you installed or what you
are trying to uninstall....why else go to add&remove??

You have a HP system that came with a shit load of HP crapware
pre-installed....they all start with HP
The rest you can research by doing a Google
http://www.google.ca/.
just type in the word and then click search
I'll post this again.............go
