Windows 95 Taskbar - Toolbar

Remove "Documents" Menu Items

SUMMARY: Clear older documents from Windows 95 Start Menu's "Documents" menu.


 

Do you not want people to know you recently used documents? By doing this, you can clear the latest documents from your Documents menu.

Right-click on an empty area of your taskbar, choosing "Properties." Click on the "Start Menu Items" tab on the dialog box which follows. Click on the "Clear" button under "Documents menu."

Note that this does not automatically clear new added items to the documents menu - just old ones.

To have items in your Documents menu automatically cleared whenever you restart Win95/NT 4.0, look into TweakUI (c) on http://www.microsoft.com (Microsoft(c)' s website).
