I cant seem to clear the URL history. You know the drop
down menu with the `Address` saying on the left, why
doesnt it clear?

With Kind regards
 
To clear the URL, RUN, etc lists:

1. Right click on the taskbar and select properties
2. Click on the Start Menu tab
3. Select Classic Start menu and then click Customize
4. Click the clear button
5. IMPORTANT!! CLICK THE CANCEL BUTTON!!!
6. CLICK THE CANCEL BUTTON AGAIN!!!

Hope this helps.

before running the edit try:-
1)Open Internet Explorer and click on Tools
2) Click on Internet Options
3) On the General Tab, in the middle of the screen, click on Clear History
4) Click OK
if fails then run that edit which I mentioned earlier.

Hi,

This process works and clears them from run also:

Clear IE History, AutoComplete, Clear the TIF, Clear the RunMRU, Typed URL's
and Clear List (depending on which Start Menu you are using): Right click
the Start button/Properties/Customize/Advanced/Recent Documents/Clear List.

Added info:

Typed URL's: Start/Run/Regedit: Open your registry and find the key below
and delete any value you want to remove.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\TypedURLs
