runas command.

Hello,

If you are talking about the Run command on the start menu, the MRU is stored in the registry at:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RunMRU

You can manually delete the individual entries from there. The usual disclaimer for manual registry
edits apply.

A person needs to be honest here, otherwise who will take them seriously?
Nobody knows everything.

As far as I know, you can't remove the names in the drop-down list. The
RunAs GUI option in Windows reads the local workstation Administrator group
user object members. The only way to remove the names is to remove user(s)
from the local Administrator group.
