How to remove extra shortcuts? 

Hi,

A few months ago I added an new shortcut beneath the 'run...' option. I called it shortcuts but I never use it, is there any way to remove this shortcut?

Waiting for an response. Tnx

Im not getting ...What you want ? beneath???

If you wanna clean Run history list...then Run Regedit in Run Dialog box and navigate to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RunMRU

and delete all right hand side registry value excluding (Default)

Or you wanna delete shorcut from Desktop...you can delete as usual way.


it's my Windows

I made a screenshot to be extra clear. The black thing is what I want to delete

Run Regedit and navigate to: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID

Now look for {2559a1f6-21d7-11d4-bdaf-00c04f60b9f0} and delete it

Restart or log off to take effect.
