    Another way to do it, from what I recall, is to change the number of projects
    to keep in the mru list (Tools/Options/Environment/General/Display x items in
    most recently used lists) down to the minimum (0 or 1), close, re-open, and
    then restore the mru count to the value of your choosing. However, with this
    method (if it still works), nukes all of your MRU projects.

    Aside from editing the registry, the method that I outlined is the only one
    that I know of. There supposedly was an add-on that would allow you to manage
    the mru list, but last time I tried, it was so buggy that I couldn't get it to
    do anything.
