Program icon missing remove

In Windows XP, Miss me the icon Add/Remove programs in the control panel (all views). Help!

Including fast enough...

It turns out that this appwiz.cpl was MISSING on my \Windows\System32 folder. There was another copy in C:\windows\servicepackfiles folder, so I just copied it more and voila. Add Remove programs appears in the Panel. Not even a restart required.
I hope it works for you!

    Hi chris malanda

    You can remove the program from the taskbar and check if that helps. To remove a program pinned to the taskbar, open the jump list for the program, and then click remove this program from the taskbar.

    See the help link - below

  • In the Start Menu pin loses program Icon

    Pavilion dv4-2145-dx Windows 7 Ultimate x 64.

    I install a new program that puts an icon on the desktop.  I right click on the desktop icon and select Pin to the Start Menu.  When I click on the Start Menu, the icon has been converted with a default Windows icon.  By clicking on the appropriate program icon default access.  Right-click on the icon/properties by default displays the correct icon and if I click on change icon the icon displayed is the correct icon.

    Any ideas as to why this icon is converted into an icon of windows by default and how to solve this problem of icon?

  • Error: "the patch cannot be installed by the Setup program because the program is missing" during installation and Service Pack 2 for Corel Draw X 3.

    original title: corel draw X 3 need a file to upgrade to work and will not install Windows install. I am running XP

    Windows Installer won't install Corel Draw X 3 patch for Corel SP1 and SP2.  Corel X 3 was released at the end of the 1980s, well before updates from Microsofts SP.

    These files are patches for the X 3 program and have nothing to do with Microsoft SP 1, 2 and 3.

    The error that gives the installer of windows, is that the patch cannot be installed by the installer, because the program is missing (which is not the case) or the upgrade patch may update a different version of the program, (which he did... this fix is designed especially for the X 3 only and is in fact the upgrade for him.)

    It says to check that I have the program on my computer and I have the appropriate fix. (What I'm doing.)
    NOTE:
    Last week I had to remove Corel X 3 from my computer and re-install. After that, I couldn't get the patch installed, and it needs those 2 patches to work properly.

    I am running XP Pro with MS Service pack 3 on my computer.  I have Intel pentium 4, 2944 usable Mg 300Ghz installed memory 266,80 GB of free space on 2 hard drives.

    Another site said a faulty windows installer can cause "out of memory" errors and has spent in Corel Draw so I deleted and reinstalled as I've mentioned above. Any ideas on how to get this installed?  Hope you can help, I don't know where to turn to the next if not. Corel does not support this program because of his age. I can't afford to update at the moment so I have a problem here. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you

    Been away in a few days. Just in case anyone else has this problem, I found the answer. It's one of those moments DUHHH.

    If you use the version of Corel Draw X 3 13.0.0.739, there already = sp1 and sp2 patches and pre-installed horfix.

    Should check that the first step, but I thank you

  • WordPad program is missing in my computer XP Start menu.

    WordPad lost

    My wordpad program is missing in my computer XP Start menu. WordPad files still exist. I have to open a wordpad file, and then press the 'new' button to get a clean writing wordpad. It's boring. How can I return wordpad for the menu programs start---> menu accessories?

    I looked through the addition / removal of the Control Panel, but I can't find a restoration for the wordpad program.

    Why not try to go in start-> search-> for files and folders, and then type "wordpad."

  • restore - point program is missing.

    I have windows xp edition family version 2002 service pak 3

    the point of restoration - part of the program is missing.   Can you send me the link to solve this problem.  Thank you e-mail address * address email is removed from the privacy *.

    Hi valleyml,
     
    -When you say "restore - point program is missing" do you mean to say that the system restore feature is missing or there is no restore point while trying to run the system restore?
     
    If you are referring to the restoration of the system, start the tool to restore the system to the command prompt and check.
    Check out this link to do the same thing:
     
    If it does not start, check if the system restore has been disabled.
    For more information, see:
     
    If you're talking about restore points is missing, please refer to this article:

    2. what spyware Antivirus software do you use?

    You can try a system restore to a previous point where you have not experienced the problem.

    Note: When you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

    To run the system restore, you can consult the following link:
