Hi Ramesh,

From my first post...
If XP Home, go here..
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm

146.  Right hand side
Add or Remove Programs Restriction - Undo
Click on Undo

Undo has
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Uninst
all]
"NoAddRemovePrograms"=dword:00000000
plus more...

No sense in double clicking a reg file when you can reinstall.  ;-)
