...or install TweakUI, and change the option to clear computer history at login/logoff. You can also clear the "Run.." history, and a ton of other stuff with it. Best of all, it's FREE

After you unzip the 4 files, right-click on the .inf and choose "Install."

Halfway through the install, a box will pop up that will tell you to access TweakUI from the Control Panel. Close the box, and the install will finish.

Once the install is done, it's safe to delete the 4 files you unzipped from the original .zip file.

Open the Control Panel, and you'll see a new icon labeled "TweakUI."

Double-click to open, and all the options there should be simple to figure out.

An INF file is a text file that contains all the information necessary to install a device, such as driver names and locations, registry information, version information, that is used by the Setup components.

Right-click on the tweakui.inf file to install it.
