Total Uninstall not able to remove a trace of an app in Sys Vol Inf,
because
it was "not empty". XP help pages give location of the entry to be
deleted,
is to be found in Safe Mode: in My Computer, a right click *will* bring
up
sys vol inf, and from there, several mouse clicks later, presumably the
entry is found. No Sys Vol Inf appears. How to find the beast, and is it
of
any importance really to correct the stored info?
TIA, any advice.

The System Volume Information folder contains files relating
to the System Restore feature but no user files.

What do you mean with "Total Uninstall"? Did you uninstall
Windows XP? How? And how did you determine that this
folder was not empty? If Windows was "uninstalled" then
you would need third-party tools to examine the hard disk!
