I have a list of recently accessed files in the Start/My Recent Documents
folder. Is there any way to select and delete several of these files at
once, or must I continue to delete one at a time, then return to Start/My
Recent Documents and delete a second one, etc. Many thanks for any help or
suggestions.........Kim
 
go to start/settings/taskbar and start menu/ click on the
start menu tab at the top then the customize box bottom
right, click the "clear" box, this will clear out all
recent documents you have opened.
 
Hi Kim,

That would be a bit difficult as they are listed in binary. The list can be
found here in the registry: Start/Run/Regedit
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Explorer\RecentDocs

Many thanks, Kelly. I'll stop the struggle. Maybe MS might include that
feature in their next update. Take care...Kim
