list expresses two values  ALL APPS 13  and MY APPS 16. 

example: MS EDGE and others should be listed but are not listed at all. 

I have 32 'uninstallable' apps though not all 3rd party. PMPC has worked properly in the past.
Thank you in advance for any help.

"My Apps" displays  the apps which (1) are installed on your machine AND (2) are in the Home Updater "App Library". In the case of portable apps, the app must also have been installed via Home Updater, whereas non-portable apps may have been installed or updated either by Home Updater or externally.

The "app catalog info.txt" in your diagnostic .zip file shows 16 non-portable apps installed - see below. Note that "Microsoft Edge" is not in the Home Updater App Library and therefore will not be displayed in "My Apps", although it may be installed on your machine and appear in the "Uninstaller" view.

The "App Apps, 13 of 13" label is showing the setting of the app filter applied to your display of "My Apps" or the "App Library" tabs of the "Apps" view. The first part sets which type of apps will be displayed: "All Apps" (non-portable and portable), "Non-portable Apps" only, or "Portable Apps" only. The "13 of 13" designates how many of the 13 categories of apps have been selected for display. For the "Uninstaller" view, only the apps type portion of the filter is available, and a portable app will only be listed for uninstallation if it was installed via Home Updater.

SIR,
Thank you immensely for your reply.  Unfortunately, at 80 years old, and I apologize, it seems to be too technical for me to benefit from it.  I have not a clue what to do to remedy my situation. I had no idea the problem I have could be that complicated.  Of course uninstalling/reinstalling did not help either.  So sorry, but could you possibly simplify to any extent.  Thank you again for your time and expertise.

looking more closely, could it be it's fixed.  Doesn't look like it. I'm pretty sure it should be showing more than 17 items.
