I've used nLiteOS twice so far, and it's been fantastic. No bugs, no problems, everything's perfect.

But, I have one question. During the nLiting process, I set it to disable the most often used programs list from the start menu. I was wondering if there is any way to get this back without reinstalling? Maybe some sort of registry hack or something?

That would be awesome if there's a way to get it back. I'm not sure what I was thinking when I disabled it..I thought it was something else. And I'd really rather not reinstall, I just spent the day customizing Windows and installing software. It would suck to have to do it all over again :-\

Thanks,

Found some stuff on google that is pretty long.

Wrong link. There is a difference between the Recently Used Documents List, and the Recently Used Programs list pinned to the Start Menu.

For what it is worth, I was looking to help this guy. So I Googled for the registry entry to remove the list. I removed the list. Then I tried reversing the registry entry. The list won't come back.

Uh oh.

I googled around quite a bit, and changed some stuff in the registry...and it's not comming back either.

So I guess it looks like I screwed myself in this one.

When I first disabled it, I thought it was something else, the Often Used Documents list..not the one in the start menu itself.

Oh well. Looks like time for a reinstall.

Thanks for the help everyone.

Don't reinstall unless you want to anyway. Tuneup systemcontrol (http://tune-up.com) has an option for this.

What did you do exactly to remove this list ?
