How to Clear Recent Project list or File list from Visual Studio .Net Start Page

If you are an Advanced User who has priviledges to edit Registry here you go.

STEPS

Close Visual Studio (if its open)

Start > Run > RegEdit(Backup registry before making changes)

GOTO

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\\ProjectMRUList

remove unnecessary items from list.

If needed reorder your list. File1, File2 etc. Otherwise Visual Studio might not read them properly.

Similarly repeat the steps for FileMRuList
