I thought ccleaner was a registry cleaner, not an add/remove utility.
You want to be very careful with those, a beginner could get in
trouble messing with the registry.
There are a lot of dependancies in there, and removing one wrong key
could render your system unbootable.
So unless your good at getting out of messes be carefull
with those kinds of things.

Sam,
It is a real script. It really demonstrates how to really do
something, and it really does exactly what it really claims to do. Really.
"The Custom Add/Remove script lists all installed applications,
much like the default Add/Remove programs control panel."
And that's it. If someone wants more from it, then more will have
to go into developing the script further. If that development is
going to be up to me, I don't know when I'll have the opportunity
to work on it. Other scripts and projects have priority over this one.
Thanks for your feedback.

What other scripts are not for real?

Subject: Re: Add remove script problem
The Add/Remove script was really just a proof of concept, so
there may be issues. All it does is read in the uninstall keys in
the registry, and then populates a list box with the results.
There are no uninstall checks or anything like that to verify
that an application can be uninstalled. It just calls the string
in the uninstall key to begin the installation. As this is a GW
Micro script, it is free to modify and re-distribute, so if
someone wants to beef it up, they're welcome to it.

Hello to the list,
I have the add remove script installed and when I activate the
script with alt control a the list box comes up fine. The
problem comes in when I try to remove a program. I get error
messages that the program cannot be removed or that windows
can't find the file. Is this supposed to work when you use this
script? When I go to add remove programs in control panel it
works just fine. If this is an issue with the script I hope it
can be resolved as it is an easy way to remove programs.
