Start Run list erased when rebooting
I seldom shut down my WinXP computer since it reboots slowly. However I do
after I get updates. The last two times I have rebooted, my list of prefilled items in the Start, Run list has been wiped out completely. There are several functions I perform from there often, so would like to stop the list getting erased. Has a recent Windows update caused this? If not, what else could have? Mich |

No CCleaner installed, in fact nothing installed lately except a keyboard
driver. "Donald Anadell" wrote in message ... "M Skabialka" wrote in message ... I seldom shut down my WinXP computer since it reboots slowly. However I do after I get updates.

Not, TweakUI is not on this computer.

Start Run list erased when rebooting
The only item I have at that location is:
NoDriveTypeAutoRun, and a search for ClearRecentDocsOnExit found nothing in the registry. "John John - MVP" wrote in message ...

I have a similar issue with the Run mru's. Based on my experience it has to
do with the installation of IE8. In any case my question is - Will adding a "ClearRecentDocsOnExit" key with a value of 0 to the registry resolve this issue? I already have a key "NoRecentDocsHistory" with a value of 1 in [HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Pol icies\Explorer] I've always had this key and it never has effected the Run mru list.

You can simply delete the ClearRecentDocsOnExit value.

"M Skabialka" wrote in message ... No CCleaner installed, in fact nothing installed lately except a keyboard driver. Sorry I don't have anything else to offer. As you can gather from the replies to your post, there is generally only two reasons for this to be occuring on your machine. 1. A Third party System Maintenance program(like CCleaner), or others as described he http://windowsxp.mvps.org/runmru.htm 2. Registry Policy setting of "ClearRecentDocsOnExit ", as described he http://support.microsoft.com/kb/292504 Good luck, Donald Anadell "Donald Anadell" wrote in message ...
