How can I clear the Run history?
John Savill | Jan 08, 2000
A. The Run history is stored in the registry in location HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RunMRU as a series of values a-z. To delete an entry from the run menu perform the following:
Start the registry editor (regedit.exe)
Move to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RunMRU
Select the entry you wish to remove, e.g. h
Press the Del key (or select Edit - Delete) and click Yes to the confirmation
Double click the MRUList value and remove the letter you just deleted. Click OK to save the change
Close the registry editor
If you want to clear the whole Run list you can use the TweakUI utility
Start the TweakUI control panel applet (Start - Settings - Control Panel - TweakUI)
Click the Paranoia tab :-)
Check the "Clear Run history at logon"
Click the "Clear Selected Items Now"
You can then either clear the check on "Clear Run history at logon" and click OK or leave it checked to automatically clear the Run at logon
Here is a link to the actual web page where I got this, you may want to look at it because it has a link to the Tweak UI utility.

If you happen to be using any sort of "crap cleaner" program such as System Ninja, BleachBit, CCleaner, or similar most of them have a checkbox for clearing the most recently used (MRU) list.
I have System Ninja and BleachBit on my system. In System Ninja the checkbox is for Recent Files and in BleachBit it is under the Windows Explorer section and the checkbox is Run.
Regardless of which of these utilities you might have, if you're using one it's worth looking for a checkbox for MRU, Most Recent, or Recent or similar and verify it's for the most recently used list.

Good morning everyone,
Using windows 10 and the latest jaws 2022, How would I be able too empty the history from the run dialogue box?

Hi again, Albert. On the other hand, if you want to clear the Run history, and have it stay clear,
1. Open Control Panel.
2. Start typing “File Explorer Options.
3. When File Explorer Options appears, Press Enter.
4. On General Tab, SHIFT TAB five times to the Privacy Clear Button and press ENTER. This should clear the Run dialogue.
Now, to keep it clear,
1. Open Windows Settings with Windows Key plus I.
2. Arrow to Privacy, and press ENTER.
3. On the General TAB, turn off the setting which reads,
Let Windows track app launches to improve Start and search results
Now the Run Dialog will be clear and stay clear.

To empty the Run History, but not prevent new entries from being logged into the Run History,
1. Open Control Panel.
2. Start typing “File Explorer Options.
3. When File Explorer Options appears, Press Enter.
4. On General Tab, SHIFT TAB five times to the Privacy Clear Button and press ENTER. This should clear the Run dialogue.

AS long as you can find everything the instructions tell you to look

recommend bailing out.
You could also follow the the link to the web page then follow the link

The reason I keep saying be careful is because one small wrong move in

Subject: Re: Question on how too empty the run dialogue box.
There are a couple of ways, one way is by editing the registry but I
don't recommend that unless you are comfortable with editing the
registry because if you make a mistake here you could end up with a non
functioning Windows. Here it is:
How can I clear the Run history?
John Savill | Jan 08, 2000
A. The Run history is stored in the registry in location
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RunMRU
as a series of values a-z. To delete an entry from the run menu perform
the following:
Start the registry editor (regedit.exe)
Move to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RunMRU
Select the entry you wish to remove, e.g. h
Press the Del key (or select Edit - Delete) and click Yes to the
confirmation
Double click the MRUList value and remove the letter you just deleted.
Click OK to save the change
Close the registry editor
If you want to clear the whole Run list you can use the TweakUI utility
Start the TweakUI control panel applet (Start - Settings - Control Panel
- TweakUI)
Click the Paranoia tab :-)
Check the "Clear Run history at logon"
Click the "Clear Selected Items Now"
You can then either clear the check on "Clear Run history at logon" and
click OK or leave it checked to automatically clear the Run at logon
Here is a link to the actual web page where I got this, you may want to
look at it because it has a link to the Tweak UI utility.

Hey Albert!
I've had that same question as well. It blows my mind that there doesn't seem to be an easy way to do this. Or maybe there is an easy way, I'm not sure!
