Re: Why does my list of RUN commands keep disappearing ?

The RunMRU is cleared when you clear the recent documents history or while clearing the URL history in IE.

Also, if "ClearRecentDocsonExit" Policy is enabled, the Run history is cleared on every reboot.

Hello, perhaps once a day or every other day, the
drop down list of used commands in the RUN box completely
clears itself.

I can reload, because I've got a .REG file with a list of my
frequently used commands to update the RUNMRU keys,
but the queston is, why do they keep disappearing.

I am not deleting any history I'm aware of.

Thanks for any info.
