When I go to Start / Control Panel / Add Remove Programs I only get a list of the programs beginning with an A. No other programs are listed.

Any idea what I have to do to get the full list back.

Rannoch

where it says 'sort by' at the top, try selecting "frequency of use"

if that doesnt help and this is a new problem, try a system restore....

click start> Help and support and where it says "Pick A Task" click: Undo changes to your computer with System Restore and follow the on-screen instructions..... you must pick a system restore point to a date that this was ok, if you do not know when exactly it started, chose the furthest check point back as possible

Hope this helps
Mike

Changing the option to "frequency of use" worked.

Thanks,

rannoch

ok, thanks for the update
