Problem: When you click a program on Add or Remove Programs, no Remove or Change button comes up. So, we cannot remove program.

A complex solution:

Click Start, Run and type REGEDIT. This starts the Registry Editor. Navigate to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\

here is Adobe Acrobat 5.0 - Taken as an example

In the right-pane, do the following:

Double-click NoRemove (REG_DWORD) and set it to 0
Double-click NoModify (REG_DWORD) and set it to 0

If NoRemove is set to 1, the Remove button will be unavailable
If NoModify is set to 1, the Change button will be unavailable

Workaround

Obviously, the above method is complex since we have to change every program’s key setting. Also, they may not work. So, use the following tool to uninstall programs. It is easy to use
