Howdy Rick,
So, now there are 4 ways to access Taskbar & Start Menu properties! LOL
LOL Heck, there are probably a couple of more ways to do it if someone
wanted to play around a little. Entering Taskbar into the search field
didn't even cross my mind since I rarely use the search field in the start
menu. Thanks for giving the additional access tip.
Take care.
Mike

Hi Mike,
Here is another for Win7,
Press the Windows key to open the start menu, and then type Taskbar in the
search box and hit enter.
On my system, I only had to type "taskb", to get it to pop up in the list.
This will put you into the properties as well, and then your instructions
pick it up from there.
Thanks for providing these instructions to the list!
HTH,
Rick Justice

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Run Dialog, Clearing It Manually Steps Redone
Hi All,
I've redone the steps to make them a little mor user friendly.
Try the following to clear the Run history manually:
1. Open the 'Taskbar and Start Menu Properties' window. You can do it in 3
ways:
A. Press the Windows Key to open the start menu, press escape to close it &
this will put
you on the start button. While on the, Start Button press, Alt + Enter, to
open Taskbar & Start Menu proberties. You will be on the Taskbar tab so,
press, control + tab, to move to the Start Menu tab.
B. Press the Windows Key to open the start menu, press escape to close it &
this will put you on the start button. Now, open the context menu with the
application key or Shift + F10 keystroke, arrow up / down to, Properties, &
press enter. You will be on the Taskbar tab so, press, control + tab, to
move to the Start Menu tab.
C. You can also access the Taskbar & Start Menu properties by opening the
Start Menu, select Control Panel, press enter, navigate to, Personalization
Link, press enter, shift + tab to, Taskbar & Start Menu Link, & press enter.
You will be on the Taskbar tab so, press, control + tab, to move to the
Start Menu tab.
2. In the Start menu tab, tab a couple of times to the Privacy area &
uncheck the, Store and
display recently opened programs in the Start menu option. If you need to
clear recently opened files from the Run Dialog, uncheck, Store and display
recently opened items in
the Start menu and the taskbar.
3. Tab to, Apply, press the spacebar, tab to, Okay, & press the, spacebar or
enter to save & close.
so to clear the run dialog history, you uncheck the box which reads;
Store and display recently opened programs in the Start menu
Note: If you want to re-build your run dialog history, you will need to go
back into the, Taskbar & Start Menu properties, and re-check the box, Store
and display recently opened programs in the Start menu. Tab to, Apply,
press the spacebar, tab to, Okay, & press the, spacebar or enter to save &
close.
Take care.
Mike
