Hi!
You could download yamicsoft Vista Manager and select: SECURITY> CONTROL PANEL
then select the shortcut and click delete Button on bottom of window.
I would be careful though. there is no recreate option in vista or vista manager that i know of.
I assume that you must be wanting to remove an aplett installed by a program you no longer want to use? otherwise i would leave it alone.
doble click computer on destop > click uninstall or change a program at top of window > wait for list of installed programs to appear > click on the program you want to uninstall > and select "uninstall or change".
or click programs and features in control panel (clasic view) and select program to unstall. (click programs if you are in control panel home).
so is the program still working on your system? what happens when you double click the icon in control panel?
did you uninstall the program or just deleted the icon from your desktop?
The program doesn't work cause I deleted it
I don't need that program anymore, it caused problems.
I just wan't the shortcut in control panel gone
I included the pic, the shortcut is highlighted in red
You should always use the uninstall link (or Programs menu) to uninstall any program
Otherwise you may still have issues with your computer, ie:
Registry Entries
System Files in Windows
Startup links (as well as in registry)
Tasks
AutoUpdates
Logs
Also other programs in future may not work, due to the program registry settings
Therefore here are your options
Re-install the program fully, then use the Programs uninstall command
Use an uninstall tool made for that program (I can't make it out exactly, in the pic)
Or use an "Uninstaller" program like Revo Uninstaller
I advise you strongly to do this, else you may have corruptions in future
Everything else seems to work.
I will be very careful with that for sure
I also checked that the Program updates was associated with Inter Video WinDvd
That program hadn't worked very well in Vista for me, the Inter Video WinDvd, I double checked that program. I uninstalled WinDVd, and when installing it again the Folder returned where Program Updates was Stored. So I knew that it was Windvd's problem. I uninstalled Windvd and unistall dind't do a good job! Of that program, so thats why I needed to delete that Program Updates in Control Panel, cause it was uselss. So I downloaded Vcl for media, and its rocks now As Of now everything is back to normal order
