Hi there:

Interent Options--->General tab-->Delete offers five vertical columns of
delete options.

TIF, Cookies, Histroy, Form data, Passwords

One those if memory serves also deltes the items i had listed in :

Start-->Run

I'm trying NOT to delete those.

Which should I avoid clicking on?

Kind regards:

None of the options you specified deletes Start > Run history.

History also deletes Run.

Hi,
Frank is correct, I think. Clearing the History deletes the Run MRU (for me)
on Vista/IE7. On XP/IE7 it does not.

But, I hate to lose my Run history or TypedURLs list (Address Bar) so I
export these two registry keys periodically as a backup:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\RunMRU

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\TypedURLs

Hope this helps,

I use Windows XP Professional Edition SP3 with IE 7.
Which one would it be then?

Hi,
No guarantees, but if your installation of XP acts like my installation of
XP, the Run MRU list won't be deleted when you delete the History. But, as I
advised, you can run regedit, navigate to the RunMRU key and export it. Then
if the RunMRU list gets deleted, you can right-click> merge that saved REG
file to restore it.

FWIW, clearing IE 7 history does not clear my Run history. I have
Windows XP Home SP 2. Perhaps it's different with Vista, and maybe it
will be different once I apply SP 3.
