Re: Duplication in Installation History

You'll have to edit the registry to clean up those entries in Add/Remove in Control Panel.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

See this site for more info: http://www.annoyances.org/exec/forum/win98/1020821804

Or, if you are not comfortable editing the registry and backing it up in case of problems, you can use TweakUI for Win98 to edit this for you:

I Have Win98 SE, OE6 and IE6.

The background to my request is that Aw-aware SE Personal will not open
due to an 'Illegal Operation'.  Three forums have tried to solve this,
but without success and I am resigned to the fact that it will not be
solved being that so much time and effort has been spent on it.

At about the time this happened I downloaded JViewer Profile (KB903235)
from Microsoft Windows Update and although I have uninstalled this, just
as a test, from Add/Remove Programs I have three copies of the program
still showing in Installation History, namely 18th, 20th and 20th July
2005.

Now my question:  How can I remove these copies from Installation
History? so that I can be sure that that is not the problem: also to
make it tidy.

Thanks,
Emrys Davies.
