troubleman Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 (edited) what OS are you running? it looks like Win2k. maybe even win98/Me Google "tweakUI" and download the version for your version of windows, and on the control panel tab, UNcheck the add/remove that does NOT work ( if both work then i guess that it does not matter) i would also check for viruses/spyware 2 add/remove programs cant be good hope that helps B) Edited April 5, 2006 by troubleman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LLXX Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 You have a duplicate APPWIZ.CPL. Go to windows\system, sort the files by Type, and look at all the .CPL files. Two of them will have exactly the same filesize and produce the same results if you right-click and choose Open with Control Panel. Delete one.

miko Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 might be an idea to remove them both and extract a new copy via sfc.exe in case of viruses or something (kinda weird to end up with two) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
