(It seems this wordpress theme can’t handle a table this big, go here for a clean page)
Only a couple of the valid uninstall values are documented on MSDN [1], some of them also have a Windows Installer property and have MSI specific documentation [2], and other values like DisplayIcon have no official documentation at all!

Notes
- NT4+ supports entries under HKCU, Win9x only supports HKLM
- UninstallPath is documented on the Win 2000 Application Specifications page, it is probably a typo and they really mean UninstallString.
- The %AppName% subkey under …\Uninstall\ is also known as the “Microsoft Application Logo 5 name”
- AppName subkeys matching “KB??????” seem to get special handling
- “No*” values under HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\%AppName% override the normal settings under HKCU\…\Uninstall\%AppName%
- All “text” values also support *_Localized versions
