| Post subject: | Recent Progs and etc. |
I decided to give classicshell another chance after hearing that Win7 behavior had been added (Tree-like). I have 3 questions: 1. Can the menu show from the top, instead of where it remembered; when i click the start button? 2. Can the recent programs list show programs that started from desktop as well as programs in start menu? 3. What types of items are stored in the Recent Items list? I have opened spreadsheets, but they are no appearing in the list. |

1. No 2. The recent and frequent programs list show programs that are in the start menu only. The frequent list also takes into account when the same programs are started from elsewhere to determine the frequency of use 3. The list is maintained by the OS with the cooperation of the programs that open the documents. If the program doesn't report that it has opened the document then it won't count |

1. If you mean show the tree-view from the top instead of its last remembered scroll position, then no. It remembers its last used position. However when you log out/shut down Windows, and the menu restarts, it shows All Programs from the top. This is exactly how the Windows 7 Start Menu behaved. 2. Yes, the FREQUENT programs list can show programs started from desktop and elsewhere and those opened from the Start Menu. The data for this list is maintained by Windows. You must have the setting "Store recently opened programs" checked in Taskbar properties -> Jumplists tab. 3. The list called Recent Items (which shows recent files and documents) is maintained by Windows. You can add or hide specific file types from it using a third party app which tweaks the registry: http://www.officehackery.com/2009/11/hi ... ndows.html From Start Menu settings, you can control how many recent items it shows using the 'Max recent documents' setting. |
