No free space on CD RW disc after UDF formatting with InCD

InCD from Nero can format a RW CD as UDF, but windows says that there is 170MB to 180 MB used and zero free space available on the formatted disc. I ran the cleanpack.zip files from Nero support & rebooted the machine. This is supposed to remove all Non Nero UDF-software references from the system registry. This did not help. All UDF programs were uninstalled from the control panel. This did not cause InCD to work either . I then searched the c: directory for udf* files and found one that was called udf-reader-uninstaller . exe ( by adaptec ). After this file was run & the system rebooted the adaptec unistall file was not present on the system anymore. But guess what .... the Nero INCD started to work !!! ie a green blob is visible in the taskbar INCD icon & there is free space on the CD RW disc when a InCD UDF formatted CD is inserted into the drive.
