Removing items from taskbar and start menu properties

[Guest edimerq]

Forgive me if this question appears twice. I just don't think the first one

went in.

 

This is my question. Is there some way to remove no longer used notification

items from the Taskbar and Start menu properties? I mean that place you find

when you -

 

Right click on the taskbar at the bottom of the desktop, (click Properties),

(click Hide inactive icons), (click Customize) then look in (Past Items).

 

In that place there is a antivirus 2009 folder, which is a virus I already

removed from my computer, and that is the only thing I am not able to remove.

I don't want to download any more softwares to remove it. I've already done

that. I just want to know if there is a way to remove things from that place

on my own.

Go to Start Buton\Run\type: "regedit" (w/o quotes) and hit Enter, next

browse to:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\TrayNotify\double

click on "IconsStreams" and delete the data.

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\TrayNotify\double

click on "PastIconsStream" and delete the data.

 

And restart the computer for the changes to take effect, Or restart Windows

Explorer: Right click on the Taskbar \ click on task manager \ click the

Processes tab \ click Explorer.exe \ and then click end Process. Next in the

task manager, \ click New Task \ type explorer \ and then click OK.
