I've only ever installed VFP6 once and that was last night. The first time back in Jan/Feb of 2000. Maybe there's supposed to be two entries but since they were both "Uninstalled" why are they still there.

Yep, and they each have a Version-independent ProgID.

>Question 1: Does that look ("feel") normal to you? Any suspicions?
No, that's apparently normal after applying SP4; all 3 machines which all work here use this key set collection. In addition, there's the wunnerful VisualFoxPro.RunTime.6 references that should point at {008B6021-1F3D-11D1-B0C8-00A0C9055D74} - the three collections are:
..Application = 20
.Application = 10
.Runtime = 21
>Question 2: Since I uninstalled these completely, shouldn't these keys have disappeared?
If your uninstall ate both the ProgIDs that reference them and the CLSIDs, you'd be OK, I'd guess that an uninstaller tried to be "helpful" and didn't catch everything that related to both distinct CLSIDs. THe keys should have been nulled out during uninstall.
