The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

No Programs in Add/Remove

Asked by akaodin in Windows 2000 Operating System

Tags: computer

Hi,
I have installed Win 2000 prof over Win Millennium. Recently I had
a system crash (i.e. one of the logon files became corrupt) Repairing
did not fix it so I reinstalled Win 2000. However, upon completion I
had 2 separate OSs: C:/Windows and C:/WinNT. I only wanted WinNt so I
removed the C:\Windows (albeit also Win 2000) and edited the
C:\boot.ini to have only 1 OS.
All was well until I tried to uninstall a program. My Add/Remove
Programs clains "There are no programs on this computer" Of course
down from the blank area are all the programs but when I click on them
the Remove button is grayed. According to the internet this is not
that uncommon but all the suggested fixes did not work:
Repairing Win 2000
sfc/purgeCache
sfc/scannow
modifying the Registry
repairing the Registry
As far as I can tell, I only have 1 OS on my PC, but Win 2000 thinks
I have 2 and all the programs are loaded in the other. I would
appreciate any and all advice on overcoming my dliema. It is VERY
frustrating and time consuming. Thx in advance.
