Need to know how to delete programs from second drive

[afriend]

Dell desktop.  Using XP with service pack 3.  C is my current drive, but I have an E drive with a lot of old unused programs.  I'd like to use the Windows applet to remove the old/unused programs, but they don't show up on the Add or Remove programs list.  Please advise.  Thanks.

The E drive is just a second partition. It's just like a storage bin and you be able to just delete them. Do you use any of the programs on that drive?

Try Revo Uninstaller (http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html). If the programs don't show up, just delete them from the drive - they probably weren't installed

I added more memory to my computer and my older, smaller drive became E.  I only use one or two programs on the E drive.  It's mostly storage for photos and documents.  The windows applet doesn't see the (old, unused) programs on E.  If I just delete the programs from the drive or use Revo, will all the registry garbage be removed too?

If when you installed your OS on your new harddrive, there should be nothing in the Registry to clean.

If the Apps on E: aren't listed in Add/Remove there are zero registry listings for them on C:...

When you say you "added more memory" I'm guessing that you mean you installed a second hard drive???

And yes, if the programs show up in Revo then you will have the option of deleting all registry references. As I said above, if they do NOT show up in Revo, just delete everything manually.

Thanks everyone. I will delete all my old unwanted pr ograms from my second hard drive (E:) using Revo/manually.
