Guest Chris Douglas Posted May 15, 2008 Posted May 15, 2008 I am using Windows Server 2003. I really like the recently used programs section of the Start Menu, but I notice that certain Microsoft applications do not appear as they should. My understanding is that as the more an application is used, the higher it appears on the list. I use Microsoft Visual Source Safe and Microsoft Visual Source Safe Administrator quite often, but Administrator keeps dropping off the list. I have even removed items from the bottom of the list until it appears again, but then it disappears the next time I look for it. I also have determined that HTML Help Image Editor NEVER appears on the recently used program list. Never. I have removed every item from list, opened HTML Help Image Editor 10 times, then rebooted. It does not appear on the list. Does anyone have an answer as to this behavior? I like the "Pin to Start Menu" option, but I don't want to do this for every application. The recent programs feature works well, since the more I use an application, the more likely it is going to be on the Start Menu, but I can't explain why these two applications work this way. -- Christopher W.
