Whenever you use the Start Menu's Run
command to launch a program, that program is
added to a history. Since this is a possible
cause to an irritating
problem, a solution is provided here for
clearing this history:
Run the
Registry Editor (REGEDIT.EXE).
Open HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ Software\
Microsoft\ Windows\ CurrentVersion\
Explorer\ RunMRU\.
Delete all of the values in this key
(everything in the right pane, except for
(Default)).
Close the Registry Editor when finished.
You'll probably have to
refresh the Desktop or
restart Windows for this change to take
effect.
