Win2K Uninstall Tip from win2kmag.com

Q. How can I uninstall hidden Windows components?
A. When you start the Add/Remove Programs Control Panel applet and select Add/Remove Windows components, the system doesn�t display all of the components because Windows doesn�t want them uninstalled. However, you can change which components the system displays. Perform the following steps:
1. Open the sysoc.inf file located in the %systemroot%\inf folder.
2. Go to the [Components] section.
3. Locate the entry you want to make uninstallable and remove the word �hide.� For example, for MSN Messenger Service, change the line

msmsgs=ocgen.dll,OcEntry,msmsgs.inf,hide,7
to
msmsgs=ocgen.dll,OcEntry,msmsgs.inf,,7
4. Save the sysoc.inf file.
