How to show more windows features and uninstall them

This giude will let you see programes that you won't find in add or remove programes/windows components and uninstall them if you want to.
First copy this text notepad.exe C:\windows\inf\sysoc.inf in to run this will open the sysoc.inf file.
Then in go to edit on the tool bar at top then chose the replace option when this opens up in the find box type in hide leave the replace box blank then click replace all.

Save the file then close it then got to add or remove programes/windows components and you will find new programes that you can now uninstall if you wish to.

It was nice of microsoft to give us the option of leaving these on or not
