One way is to right click the taskbar, click Properties
Start Menu Programs tab Clear button under Documents.
Or Start Settings Taskbar and Start Menu same as
above.

The above two will delete all of your saved MRU's, i.e.:
run, history, url address, etc.

Another way is to remove them in the registry:
hkey_local_machine\software\microsoft\windows\cur rent
version\explorer\doc find spec mru

Do not remove the default value and mru list.

Always backup the registry before making any changes so
that you may import the keys back in should anything go
wrong. Haphazardly removing keys in the registry is very
dangerous and can render your system useless. Be 100% sure
of what you are doing and what you remove can be safely
done.

You can Backup the registry key/s while in regedit:
Click on Registry on the menu bar while in the registry,
click on "Export Registry File.". Choose a location, I
recommend saving it to the desktop and it makes it easy to
find. Place a check next to "Selected Branch" and give the
file a memorable name, select save, make your changes and
close out. If you have no problems after say 2 weeks, you
can delete the exported files.
If you have problems, double click the reg file on the
desktop to import/merge it back into the registry.

Do Not back up the entire registry in the registry
editor. Importing it back while in windows can be harmful
to the machine. A registry backup is created each new
calendar day a machine is booted.
If you wish to perform a new backup of the registry after
the machine has been booted, got to Start Run, type in:
scanregw and hit enter. You will be prompted that a
registry has already been backed up for the day and do you
wish to create a new one, click yes.

The Named: box includes a pulldown arrow at the right
hand
side. Typically, when you click on this arrow, you get
a
list of all the entries you have made in the Named:
box. I
am trying to clear this list (history). Does anyone
know
how? Thanks
