This is a form of "recent documents" (MRU's). They can be cleared several ways: "IE Privacy Keeper" and check the box for "Recent documents" to have them automatically cleaned. "MRU Blaster" will do it (among many other things), SpyBot and AdAware probably will, as will many other utilities that erase usage tags. I don't use the XP Theme, I use the Classic, so in my case you can right click the Taskbar, 'Properties', 'Start menu' tab, 'Customize' button, then the 'Clear' button which will clear all recent docs (and usage).
If you're needing to search for something in the registry, the tree doesn't have to be collapsed, just highlight "My Computer" then search. It will search from that point down. -Clint God Bless Clint Hamilton, Owner http://OrpheusComputing.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Harold B." Hello again (Windows XP), Whenever I open the Registry, the tree opens in the same position I left it in last time it was used. What must be done so that the Registry always opens with the root keys showing? If that can't be done, I think there is some hot key combination (on the keyboard) that closed the entire tree in one shot. I don't recall what it is; maybe someone in the group does --- Harold ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
