How do you clear your MRU list in Visual Studio?

Question

I want to clear the list of projects on the start page...how do I do this? I know I can track it down in the registry, but is there an approved route to go?

Answer 1

I had this issue as applied to VS 2017 where you do not have any MRU items in the registry as in the previous versions. The solution was, on the other hand, simple: go to "Tools->Extensions and Updates" and install "Power Commands for Visual Studio". After they have been installed, your File menu will look as shown below.

Just click the menu item to clear the project MRU.
