In have XP on start up page how do I delete the contents of My Recent Docoments other than 1 at a time.?

Answer 1

Click on the start button, then choose run, in the box type "recent" without the quotes, this will open a window with all the recent documents listed in it, go to the menu bar at the top, click on edit then choose select all, once all the files are selected hit the delete key on your keyboard to delete all of them. This will not delete the original file just the entry for the recent files menu.

Answer 2

Clear the history of recently used files
Applies to: Microsoft Office Word 2003
On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the General tab.
Clear the Recently used file list check box, and then click OK.
The list of recently used files is cleared, and no history of your file usage is kept. To start a new history of recently used files, do the following:

On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the General tab.
Select the Recently used file list check box, and then click OK.

Answer 3

I believe if you right click on the start menu bar, and choose properties, one of the options there will allow you to clear "Recent Documents". The other option is to go to Start->All programs -> accessories -> system tools -> Disk Cleanup and use that...

Be careful not to have it delete anything you want to keep. Deleting cookies and temp files can remove passwords and login info from pages that you frequently visit.
