You just have to add a key to the registry to add text.

1. Create a key 'Test' in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
2. Add a new string value 'DisplayName' and set the data to 'Test'.

This will give you a string 'Test' in the Add/Remove program in the Control Panel.

Have a look at this key in the registry to learn more:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

Hope this helps.
