well one program i want to hide... cus its a game... and im technically not supposed to play games on my dad's computer... and the other reason is on my computer i have a program that i want to get rid of, but it says the program is uninstalled already and then it closes but still shows up in the add remove programs section and is really annoying...
i thought i did this somewhere in the registry to remove a registry key or someting... how do i do this?
 
we'll i dont approve of your intent, but it seems harmless enough.

Anyway i already posted the answer in my first post (just highlight the line below my text) :)
 
Ah yes, just a bit of registry editing :P You may still have a problem if he decides to look in his Program Files though, there's a few other places that will give it away.

hehe, well done, but my dads a t**t, he shows all the hidden files and and then deletes the game. so when i get really far i just copy the save files into another random directry, then all i have to do is install copy and play.
