Try thisQuote:
* Go to Start -> Run -> type regedit and enter
* Browse to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ Software\ Microsoft\ Windows\ CurrentVersion\ Policies\ Explorer
* Create a DWORD value with the key NoRecentDocsHistory and set the value to 1
* Done, you have just disable recent documents history.
* Please logoff or restart your pc to get the recent documents history take effect.
Why not just change the number to 0ne , for number of programs on start menu ?
Because then it would look like it does now, instead of in the second pic. (Which is a Photoshop'ed image of what I want it to look like)Quote:

This red fix will do the trick, just save it somewhere and run it. Then reboot and it should be good to go. http://windowsxp.mvps.org/reg/hiderecentdocs.reg
