If Modifying installations to add stuff (e.g. modify Office installation to add Frontpage, Access etc) counts then yes, at work.

well it is call ADD or remove programs

In Vista, its called Programs and Features, but I'm unsure if there's still the Add option

I use the applet to add programs that are components of Windows (like the games and stuff) that it asks you to put in the Windows CD for (then because I don't want to look for my CD I give up).

I cba to do it, waste of time and so far hasn't done any damage to my stuff.

I do it now because my U3 Cruzer tells me that I should have when I don't.

There's a link to a brief Help topic that explains how to install programs. It explains how to install new software from a cd or dvd, or after you've downloaded it.

They should remove the add feature and rename it Repair/Remove programs.

Don't make it seem like a bad things. ReadyBoost demands you to use the safely remove hardware feature, or else the space of the cache goes to nowhereland, and you'll have to format.

Please tell me you uninstalled the U3 software, yuck . I removed mine the first day I got my 4GB stick.

I kept the U3 stuff, that's part of the reason I bought a Cruzer. The other part was that Sandisk makes top quality products and I was replacing my 128 MB disk with a 2 GB disk also. After I bought it I found the portableapps.com launcher thing but I haven't tried that yet.

I must say Sandisk is really good hardware.  My dad got a 1GB USB key and forgot about it in his pocket, he put his shirt to the wash and then when he found it he let it dry out for a bit.  When we put it back into the computer all his files were still there

I still don't like the U3 stuff
