Clean up the windows Xp start menu

Here is a trick to clean up the start menu of windows xp and also to remove the Recently used documents.

There are mainly two ways to remove the ‘recently-used programs’ on the start menu:

1. You need to change to Classic Menu appearance. The way is right click on start menu, go to properties, choose on the Classic menu selection, and click ok.
2. The second way is right click on start menu and choose the "Properties” and then select "Customize". Then you go to general tab that is on the top. After that you set “number of programs on the Start menu” to Value 0 and press OK. If you want to back to normal, you just need to set the value according your need.

Here I am going with the second way and the result will be like the picturebelow. Now the appearance of the Start menu on your computer will look tidy.


Always keep your computer clean:-)
