Clear Unwanted Entries from the Start Menu`s Run Command
March 2, 2009 Computer Tips And Tricks
This is intened for Windows, XPWindows, 2000Windows, MeWindows, 98Windows and Windows 95. Everytime you 
use the Start Menu`s Run command to launch a program, that program is added to a history. Here is the solution for clearing this history:
- Run the Registry Editor (REGEDIT.EXE)
- Open HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ RunMRU.
- Delete all of the values in this key (everything in the right pane, except for Default).
- Close the Registry Editor when finished. You`ll probably have to refresh the Desktop or restart Windows for this change to take effect.
Note: For a shortcut, use the NOMRU registry patch (1 kb).
Note: To clear the OtherFoloder history, repeat the same process in H_KEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\
