Right after I posted the blog about a tool I found to clear the Recent Projects list in Visual Studio, Maarten van Stam pointed me to a much better tool than that, MRU Cleaner from Bob DeRosa.
It took me some time to figure out what version to use, in the end got it from here: http://www.csharper.net/blog/visual_studio_2008_add_in_compatibility.aspx
Installation is very straightforward, and it will just add a new menu item in the file menu of Visual Studio:
Just select the “Clear Recent Items” menu item, and you will see this popup:
This nice tool not only lets you manage recent projects, but also recent files. And it can relaunch VS2008 for you, saving you from the trouble doing that yourself….
Thanks Bob for a great tool! (I wished I had found this sooner!)
