Title: Where are programs listed?
Post by: Bobh on October 24, 2010, 07:25:55 PM

Hi -
I have Vista Home Basic  32 bit.  I notice that when I go to Control Panel  - Programs and Features several programs are listed such as Adobe AIR.  When I go to "start" and "All Programs" they are not listed.  Should they be listed in "All Programs and what can I do about it?   Thanks    Bob

Adobe AIR is not a program per se, so it's not listed in programs list.
See here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Integrated_Runtime
If you're not a developer, you can safely uninstall it.
