Hi people
We have 2 machines here with XP HOME
When you go to Add Remove Program there´s a Hole, an enormous blank space in the list. This is between letter C and D programs. How do we fix that ?
Tks in advance.
 
Similar fixes here, but they do not require .NET Framework to be installed.

Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall and cycle through each registry key. If an entry has a DisplayIcon string with a "-1" value, set this to "0".

Tks for your attention people !
Cleanup_ad.... didn´t work. But while looking all this stuff
I noticed the hole was between "C" and "D". With RegEdit,
searching ....\Uninstall i found the element causing all this confusion. Deleted it and its OK now.
