I did some checking via Google for more specific instr. Start from the first subkey
listed under the Uninstall string. It would be between the last A/R entry you see
in your A/R list at the top, and the first entry shown at the bottom half of your
list.
Find the entry that has a minus number at the end for the DisplayIcon value. In between
those two where the blank space appears, you should see something similar to this
entry below:
Here's an example of a value in the right pane with a negative number, -1:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\
{5783F2D7-0101-0409-0002-0060B0CE6BBA}]
"DisplayIcon"="C:\\Cad\\Acad2002\\acad.exe,-1"
Either delete the entire value, or modify the value and delete the minus symbol so
it looks like this. That's it: "DisplayIcon"="C:\\Cad\\Acad2002\\acad.exe,1"
