When I open Add/Remove Programs from the Control Panel, there is a
large block of empty space at the top; then the list of installed
applications is loaded below.

BUT, the Change and Remove buttons are grayed out on all the
applications. If I click or double-click on any application, the buttons
stay grayed out and are inoperable.

Can anyone tell me how to fix the problem?

1. Your "Black" space - "Add or Remove - White Space" same fix.

2.Change/remove buttons greyed out.-Add and Remove - Restrictions

Good Luck.
