Recently accessed file list

When ever I open many files, they always show up in Start->Documents.

"Ccleaner does that (with a right click on the Recycle Bin > Run CCleaner) when Recent Documents is checked under Windows Explorer.

Ccleaner is freeware (i recommend downloading the Slim version, it does not include the browser search bar). a portable version is also available.

or disable the recording of recently opened documents altogether:

User Key: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\
Explorer]
System Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\
Explorer]
Value Name: NoRecentDocsHistory
Data Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)
Value Data: (0 = disable restriction, 1 = enable restriction)"
