Change & Remove buttons missing from most programs in Add Remove Programs. Fix?


I went to uninstall my old Photoshop and found that most programs in Add Remove Programs did not change remove buttons for programs. Seen as recently updated or add-ons done. I checked reg key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Uninstall \
and there were only a few entries (a few buttons that had Add to Remove Programs) It has removed all the keys the uninstall (should not say something, it seems quite clear it is a Windows autoupdate that did it.) Attempt to restore the system to two points and neither completed. What to do now? Is it possible to obtain registration backup system restore? I found a backup that I made with Spybot and it has many touches, but I want to get newer if possible. Has it something else backup registry and more restore points system?

(From old blog's comments)
Time for a software cleaning registry because the registry has become very corrupt because of all the changes to the system.
