Question Dimmed icons

Hello, I was browsing through my system, just to see what I could see, and I opened the windows file. I noticed about two hundred folders whose icons were dimmed. They were all labeled $NtUninstall... in blue text.

What is the signifigence of this? Please satisfy my curiosity. Thank you, boot.
