Would like to get old programs off disk. They aren't in
add/remove programs tool (upgrage from W98 to windows 2K
Pro). I can see programs folders but can't locate
uninstall in them. If I just delete folders aren't they
still in registry? Nothing in Knowledge Base that simply
explains why it's happened and what to do.

Many many thanks to anyone who can finally solve a week
long problem.

Seems to me that you perhaps asked your question in
more than one newsgroup. Dave most likely answered you
in the win2000.file_system newsgroup.
 
have you already tried the search utility in the startup
menu? hmm... use old documentation if you have any for
the old programs. if there is any data it should bring it
up. One sure but less desirable solution would be to make
backups of important data, clean swipe and reboot and
reinstall win2000 and all drivers, etc. Probably would
work but you'd have to consider the viability...
