How would I clear all the recent programs that stay on th "start, run" list
after they are used? I tried the "Clear Recebt Files" program from Kelly's
XP Korner, but it does not seem to clear the used commands.
Thanks
 
Right click your Start button, left click Properties, click the Customize
button, click the Advanced tab, under the heading Recent Documents click the
Clear List button. This will not only clear the dropdown list in the Run
box, but will also clear the list of your recently opened documents.
 
Hi,

My utility should have cleaned it for you. What stayed behind? Are you
sure it was a run command?

Manual Edit for Run MRU:

Delete the value corresponding to the command you want to remove, or remove
all the entries to clear the list completely.

Go to Start/Run/Regedit and navigate to this key:

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