Uninstall option in "ADD OR REMOVE PROGRAMS" is missing

[Prashant]

When I go to Control Panel, ADD OR REMOVE PROGRAMS and the list of programs
show up..... the Add / Uninstall option ain't there for any of them

Try a System Restore.

Here are some troubleshooting steps to take when System Restore fails to
restore: http://bertk.mvps.org/html/srfail.html

Is this a fairly recent development, say in the past week? I see a few other
threads with similar complaints (and I'm having the same problem) since the
last Vista update. Do a search on Uninstall here and look at some of those
threads. Folks are mentioning that some registry entries related to
uninstalling got wiped out or something along those lines.

Also, try installing something new and see if that piece of software can be
uninstalled afterwards.
