I'm trying to increase the number of items shown in the Run MRU list. The registry key in question is
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RunMRU
The relevant value is MRUList. From what I've seen, the maximum is 26, the values are a-z.
I've tried adding values with symbols and numbers for the name (e.g. 1, #, +), and adding them to MRUList value, to no avail.
Any ideas?
(using an external launcher program is out of the question)
Most Recently Used or MRU are lists of recently used programs or opened files that the Windows operating system saves in the Windows Registry. These are also visible to any user from the drop-down menu of the program.
A Multicampus Research Unit (MRU) is a research unit established by UC to provide a supportive infrastructure for long-term research and/or creative work being carried out across multiple UC campuses and/or affiliated national laboratories.
No, the limit is fixed and you can't use more than 26 entries. You'll have to use another way like an external program - so why is this a bad idea for you? I'm sure there are launchers you can even plug in the start menu near the run command and that'll have almost the same look-and-feel - and if not, you can always code your own launcher.
