This worked in XP and Vista but doesn't seem to work in Windows 7. I searched the registry for unwise.exe (since it is excluded from the start menu recent programs) and found it in two places:
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileAssociation
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\explorer\FileAssoc iation
I added the name of the program I'm trying to exclude in to the AddRemoveApps value and then rebooted the machine. The program still appears on the start menu after I run the program again.
The Remove From This List option only temporarily removes the item and it will show back up after it's been used again.
I also tried adding a new string value named "NoStartPage" to the Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\ProgramName.exe key.
If anyone has figured out how to work around this issue in Windows 7 please let me know.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Scott
