Where is the VS mru list file stored?

Hello all,

I want to remove some (not all) projects from the mru list. Where is it stored so I can edit it or is there a way to selectively remove an entry?

Thanks,

Hexman

That would be in the registry, at least for version 2003.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER -Software -Microsoft -VisualStudio -8.0 ->
ProjectMRUList ....

However, after that, I presume you're looking at the list of projects on
the VS Start Page? If you delete / rename / move the project from c:\My
Documents\Visual Studio\Projects\<project name(or wherever VS thinks it
should be) to somewhere / something else then the next time you start VS
the project will show on the list, if you try to open it VS complains that
it can't be found and asks if it should remove it from the list. If you
say 'Yes' that the last you'll see of it.

If this isn't what you're asking, oh well, I tried! :)
