Problem :
Whenever I press Win + R , Run dialog box
appears so that commands such as temp
or %temp%
can be typed in. I did this in order to delete temp files, etc.
When I again press Win + R, the old commands used are still listed in the box.
How do I prevent this history from recurring ?
Solution :
You can prevent history from recurring this way :
- Open
Registry Editor
by typingregedit
in theRun dialog box
- Find this :
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerRunMRU
- In the right panel, you will find the entire history. Select all the strings
except the Default string
and delete them. - And Your’ done.
