When I excute some command on [START] - [RUN], we can see the command as
listed history at next time.
Can I remove it?
 
David,

You could always set...

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"ClearRecentDocsOnExit"=dword:00000001

and / or

[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"ClearRecentDocsOnExit"=dword:00000001

This will clear run and recent docs on logout or reboot.

HTH,
Brad
 
David,

All the RUN history listings are stored under the key:
[HKEY_USERS\.Default\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RunMRU]
Also, you can setup an Explorer policy to clear the MRU items on exit (logoff or shutdown):
[HKEY_USERS\.Default\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer],"ClearRecentDocsOnExit"=dword:1

Or you HKEY_CURRENT_USER for particular account.
 
Thans KM,

However,
I can look for
"[HKEY_USERS\.Default\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RunMRU]
" key. What's the matter with me?

David,

I actually meant the key [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RunMRU] contains the history of
commands you typed in Start-->Run dialog.

KM,

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RunMRU]
also does not exist.
I check this path on XP Pro SP2 instead of XPE SP2. Does the key path is
defferent XP Pro and XPE?

David,

The key is there is you have used the Run dialog at least once (RTM, SP1, SP2). It must be there unless you have EWF running and do
not commit any changes in the system.

Make sure you check [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RunMRU] key.
More important it is in user hive (HKEY_CURRENT_USER when user profile is loaded).
