Program size in Add/Remove programs

Postby kishorkk23 » Tue Aug 07, 2012 7:28 am

Hi,
I am not able to see any program size in the Add/Remove program. Do we need to set/add any attribute?

Dear user,

This is determined internally by MSI, but I know that it is often miscalculates (exaggerating sizes) or missed as you found.
If you want is possible to correct the displayed value using Write Registry.

Please have a look at the following link:

Hope this helps you.
