On the Start Page to the left are a list of Recent Projects. Over time though
end up removing some projects, yet they continue to appear in this list. I
tried changing the number of recent items to display from 10 to 1 and then
reset it to 10 and that did not work.
How can I remove select Recent Items, specifically those that no longer
exist?
Thanks, Greg
I usually just ignore them until I've added enough newer ones that it
pushes them off the bottom.
But I can tell you one way to do it if you absolutely have to. I don't
think it's exactly recommended but:
use regedit (do I need to say back up your registery first?). go into
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\8.0\ProjectMRUList,
(8.0 is for the VS 2005 that I'm using - if you've got a different
version, yours may be different.)
Then delete the entries for the files you don't want to appear there
anymore. However, it does not appear to reorder the list, so you won'
t see anything after the first entry you delete until it's regenerated
(i.e, if you delete File2, then you'll probably only see the first
entry when you bring up VS. If you need some of the later entries, I
would guess you can use a cut and paste to recreate the File2 value as
the contents of the File3 Key, etc.)
Not sure that's 100% accurate, but it's what I would do, and it worked
on my machine.
