(Backup - backup - backup!) 1. Use Regedit to navigate to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\FileExts\ <.extention> \OpenWithList. 2. Each entry uses a value name that is a letter, as in a, and a data string which is the program that opened the file, like Notepad.exe. Locate the program that you wish to delete and record the value name. Delete this value name. 3. Edit the MRUList value name and remove the letter of the option that that you deleted. |
