    Hi and Welcome to the forum.

    Could you explain in more detail what it is that you are trying to achive as from your text/sms speak its hard to work out and in what reference deleting and networking come together?

    I could guess and say is it the built in Windows applications (as in turning on/off Windows Features) you wish to remove as in say Internet Explorer, Indexing, Media apps etc?

    Or is it how to manage Windows Services List as in this HERE to how to fully uninstall an application and not via Add/Remove but by a 3rd party application like REVO Uninstaller?

    If you could explain how you did what you are looking for in say XP or Vista that maybe helpful to us so that we can advise.

    ok ,say i downloaded a program or file an the add/remove programs didn't get it all
    out,i want to go into the windows files (programs) an deleat ALL of it . i know on older win 'puters you can see all the files an programs that has ben installed an downloaded on a 'puter. i don't want to install anouther file or program just to remove anouther file or program hope, that makes sense.
    sorry for posting in the wrong place. (first timer)

    I think crooked is looking access what was c:\program files in it's location in windows 7. Wants to delete the folder of the program being uninstalled if it didn't get deleted automatically.

    Hidden and not just a warning line that you can click to access them, I'm guessing.

    I am not looking forward to my leap to 7 full time next week!

    handygal,u hit the nail on the head. i want 2 access the folder or files that add/remove didn't clean out an manually deleat them.
    question is : how do i access the program files? (so i can deleat them)
    ps: win 7 is fast an user friendly,u'll like it ,it just takes a little while 2 get used 2.
