In Vista, the application is called programs and features.

You can find it in the control panel.

A faster way is to click on the Start button > in the search box, type programs and features > Enter.

    Hi DadVQ,

    ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    This problem occurs because of a missing or corrupted Rundll32.exe file. This problem can also be caused by a virus.

    Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:

    Method 1: Follow the steps mentioned in the article below and check if the problem still persists.

    Cannot find the Rundll32.exe file when you open Control Panel

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/812340

     

    Method 2: If the problem persists, I also suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

    The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

    Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

    Important: While hard disk analysis if bad sectors are found when scanning try to repair this area, all available on which data can be lost.

  • How to restore Microsoft updates list to add and remove programs in the control panel?

    Under Widows XP SP3

    You have the box show updates checked (at the top of the Add/Remove window)?

    How long and how did you remove the updates from the list?  If only recently you can use system restore to roll back the machine just before you deleted the items.

    Why should you list?  Updates can be uninstalled manually with the Spuninst.exe utility, look in the update to spuninst folder, example:

    C:\WINDOWS\$NtUninstallKB973687$\Spuninst

  • the "Add/Remove Program" section in Control Panel does not when I try to delete a program

    I use XP

    Since we don't know anything about your system, here are some general thoughts:

    Click Start, run, and in the box, enter these commands one at a time (or copy and paste the commands into the box run), and then click the OK button after each command:

    regsvr32 appwiz.cpl
    (DllRegisterServer in successful appwiz.cpl)

    regsvr32 mshtml.dll
    (depending on your configuration, you can get an error... proceed)

    regsvr32 "c:\program Files\Fichiers communs\System\Ole DB\Oledb32.dll.
    (including the quotation marks...  DllRegisterServer in successful ole32.dll)
