For example, if I have Excel installed and it appears in the start menu, when I hover my mouse on it the most recently used documents are displayed on the right.
They also appear when I right click the icon of an open application in the taskbar.
Where is this list of documents stored for all the applications? How can I clear it for a particular application?
1Thanks! Looks like they have encrypted everything there in rot13 format. That's why I couldn't find the when I searched the registry! (I guess PInvoke is just an Windows API call to ask Windows to re-read the values from registry after you've tinkered with them.) – KalEl – 2011-01-28T04:12:48.240
How do you execute Pinvoke? – Moab – 2011-01-28T05:29:41.970
@KalEl: The API call is

. P/Invoke is not directly related to Windows API. Also known as Platform Invocation Services, it's just a method of calling native code (often DLL functions, including Windows API) from "managed" (.NET Runtime) code. C# is a .NET language.use http://www.sliver.com/dotnet/snippetcompiler/ to do the P/Invoke. Put the "using System.Runetime.InteropServices" at the top of the code file, and the rest into the "main() {}", between the curly brackets. Then start the thing (somewhere theres a button). It should open up a commandline Window which disappears shortly after.

Download this: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16862782/ClearCache.cs and the SnippetCompiler (one post up) and open the .CS file in SnipperCompiler. Then hit the green "start" arrow in the toolbar. When the black window appears, just hit a button, the command has been executed. (What I said in my previous comment was garbage, it does NOT go into Main(). It goes into the class definition)
