Windows Remove orphan entries from Add or Remove programs

Whenever i go to Add/Remove programs I can see a list of entries that consists of installed software’s. In that lot many are not getting removed as it is showing MSI installer error or something related.

Why The Software Lists Are Not Getting Removed?
It is because i have not uninstalled the software properly using the available uninstaller. I would have just manually deleted it from Program Files or elsewhere it got installed. This is not at all a wise method as it leaves some traces in the registry or even wont move out of the list of programs in the Add/Remove entries.They are all orphan files and needs to be removed manually.

Solution

There are two solution for this.
In order to hide selective programs/applications listed in Add or Remove:
TAKE A BACKUP OF THE CURRENT REGISTRY THEN PROCEED WITH THIS STEP
Go to Start/Run/Regedit and navigate to this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

Locate the program in question in the left pane. In the right pane, right click DisplayName and select rename: Add Quiet so it will read:
QuietDisplayName. No reboot or refresh needed. Open Add or Remove – the listing is now gone. To revert, rename back to Display Name.

OR

Use

Add/Remove Pro v. 2.11 this displays the entries in the Add/Remove Programs list of Windows Registry, checks if each is valid, and uninstalls the selected program or removes the entry from the list.

Requires Windows.

Download

The above is among the numerous methods available which will really work and solve your issue/problem. I have got the above solution after doing lot many google search and research.

For safer side if you are not an expert in windows always go for a backup of the file/registry you are editing and create a restore point before you modify anything in the OS[Operating System] level
