No, there is not a way to populate the list. Look for an unistall file in the application 
folder. There probably isn't one there. Computer manufacturers load all that bloatware 
garbage on your computer to make you feel like you're getting all sorts of extras 
when in reality they are essentially stuffing your system full of advertisements 
for software vendors.
