How do I delete entries in "Run" dailog box
I have many entries in my Run command window and would like to delete them.
Is there a 3rd party utility for Windows 98 that will delete these entries? Is there a Windows 98 feature that can delete these entries? |

How do I delete entries in "Run" dailog box
You can go into the registry and delete the entries; however, if you don't
know what you are doing, it could be bad for your computer's health to be tinkering in the registry. Tweak UI, Paranoia tab, will allow you to clean up run and other entries. Tweak UI is available from: http://www.microsoft.com/ntworkstati.../NTTweakUI.asp Right-click the TweakUI .inf file and select install. Should a notice appear saying a disk is required, click OK and another screen appears. Click browse, go to the folder containing Tweak and click OK and OK. -- Regards Ron Badour, MS MVP for W98 Tips: http://home.satx.rr.com/badour Knowledge Base Info: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?pr=kbinfo "matosapa" wrote in message ...

Use TweakUI as Ron suggests, or if you don't want to install that, follow this old
advice from MVP Alan Edwards: Make a file called nomru.reg from the lines below. Use Notepad to do this and copy the lines. Do not retype in case of error. Ensure REGEDIT4 is the first line and that your mail/newsreader does not add spaces to the end of any lines. Ensure the last line is blank. Doubleclick nomru.reg to merge this file with the Registry. They will go when you restart windows or you can clear the memory out by "Start - Shut Down - No" and the box will clear. /--------------nomru.reg below here--------- REGEDIT4 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\RunMRU] "MRUlist"="" "a"="" "b"="" "c"="" "d"="" "e"="" "f"="" "g"="" "h"="" "i"="" "j"="" "k"="" "l"="" "m"="" "n"="" "o"="" "p"="" "q"="" "r"="" "s"="" "t"="" "u"="" "v"="" "w"="" "x"="" "y"="" "z"="" /----end of file above here---- -- Glen Ventura, MS MVP Shell/User, A+ http://dts-l.org/ http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm "matosapa" wrote in message ...
