Start Menu's "Remove from this list" option doesn't work
On the Start Menu the programs listed as recently used (not the pinned ones) sometimes cannot be removed using the "Remove from this list" option. Some programs do get removed, some don't, no matter how many times I try. The only way to clear them is to clear the list entirely using the Start Menu properties (uncheck/check the "Store and display recently opened programs in the Start Menu"). I'm sure this worked properly when originally installed, its only recently I've noticed this behaviour. All important & recommended updates have been applied. Anyone with any thoughts? Windows 7 is RC, build 7100, 64-bit edition installed on Dell Inspiron 9400.

Here it is a year and a half later and this problem still exists. Since no one has an acceptable solution - completely clearing the entire list is not an acceptable solution - is there any way to get Microsoft to address and fix this bug?

If you want that a bug gets fixed, contact the MS support."A programmer is just a tool which converts caffeine into code" CLIP- Stellvertreter http://www.winvistaside.de/
