I'm tempted to uninstall it... but.. I cannot find it anywhere on my system (yes, I have 'show hidden files' enabled.)
Thanks
Windows Explorer > Program Files > Common > Microsoft Shared.
Just guessing here, but I think it may be linked to MS Office.
BTW, I am also showing it listed in the CCleaner Uninstall Tools.
Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Thank you Andavari for replying so fast!
Actually, I should have been clearer in my previous question.
What I would like to know is how do I "undo" the actions that I performed in that "tip" posted by Humpty.
I believe that tweak I did is preventing me from accessing "Add/Remove Windows Components".
Thanks again!

Wonder if they could be hidden from the windows add/remove list.
Try the tip below.
Windows Explorer>Tools>Folder Options check Show hidden files and folders.
Open sysoc.inf in the C:\WINDOWS\inf Then press Ctrl+H to open the Replace Wizard.
In Replace Wizard:
Find what: ,hide,
Replace with: ,,
Then go to control panel Add/Remove , if there were any hidden components they should now show.
Hi Humpty,
I used your "tip" because I was showing 14 items in the Uninstall Tools section of CCleaner that were not showing in the Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel.
Now, when I click on Add/Remove Windows Components, I get a Dialog Box pop up saying:
"Setup was unable to open information file hide.
Contact your system administrator. The specific error code is 0x2 at line 2088999411."
....following by a second Dialog Box saying:
"The application could not be initialized."
Is there something I could do to fix this?
Thanking you in advance,
ImWho.

Windows loads a crap load of services that you don't need. I would send you to a really good site but it's down at the moment. Its run by a guy who calls himself black viper and he has documented the bare minimum that you need to run windows and what each service does. If I find a link to a working site I'll post it.
Here's a working link:
