How can I clear the "Frequent" list in Windows Explorer?

This list of "Frequent" exists when you pin 'My Computer' on the taskbar and then right-click on the folder.

I want to remove from the list of "Frequent" is because it intrusive is located below the desired "pinned" list and the common list is also a privacy issue where a guest to my computer can see all the files I've ever visited.

Hello

The only way to do it is to right - click on the Start button and select Properties. Remove the two check in the section of the privacy options.

Note: This is a global setting and apply to all the program pinned to the taskbar.

I hope this helps.

Thank you for using Windows 7

  • How can I remove the menu bar in Windows Explorer?

    I have Windows 7 (x 64). In windows Explorer, the menu bar will not go if I press ALT. Also, I went into the menu "Organize" and went to "provision". Display of the menu bar has been disabled. I even checked "View" tab in the folder options and the display of the menu bar option is disabled here also. I tried to restart, but which did not help either. So, what should I do? The menu bar that bothers me a lot. So, ill reinstall windows if I can't find a way to remove it.

    So I guess the menu bar also refused to go when you were in safe mode.  If so, it narrows at least it down to a Windows problem.  If the system is free of any software malicious then the fault lies with Windows being corrupt.

    If SFC has reported no problems then only clean boot procedures could narrow things down to the component of Windows 7 that is the cause of the problem.

    You may find that the boot is too tedious & skip to what is called an in Place Upgrade or repair installation using your installation DVD. It's better than a reinstall full as it leaves your applications & intact user files.

  • How can I clear the shift registers of sub for loop for each iteration of a larger loop?

    Hello

    I write a program to concatenate multiple text files.  However, I need to treat each column individually before they are concatenated.  I use one for a loop at normalze 6 columns choice the largest loop of concatenation.  However, the shift registers store data from previous iterations of the larger loop.  How can I clear the shift registers of the void loop based on the iteration of the larger loop?

    Thanks in advance!

    OK, that's fine. are there headers?

    In all cases, all you need to do is to place all of the 2D array in the shift register of the inner loop, iterate over the columns relevant to be normaized (use 'index array' to get the column it normalize, put it to help to "replace the subset of table".) You probably want to initialize the outer loop shift register. Use then "building the table" added to the beginning or the data of each file sets.

  • How can I clear the paper jam in my printer

    Original title: Deskjet printer

    How can I clear the paper jam in my printer?

    Hello Janet,.

    Let me ask you;

    • What is the brand and model of the printer?
    • Do you have the manual of the printer with you?

    The following factors can cause paper jams:

    1. paper loaded properly in the paper tray.

    2 rolls of paper damaged or dirty.

    3. torn, crumpled or wet paper loaded in the paper tray.

    4. the access door back or double-sided (duplexer) printing accessory cannot be closed or is not locked in place.

    5 paper was added to a stack already in the status bar.
    The status bar contained more than one type of paper.

    6. torn pieces of paper from a previous jam are stuck in the product.

    7. the status bar is too full.

    8. If printing on an envelope, the envelope edges are bent.

    To avoid damage to the printer, see the documentation that came with the printer to see how to remove paper jams. Function of the printer, and where the problem is occurring, you might want to try one of the following options:

    • Go to the printer, the arrival of mail in the State or the display on the printer area that might tell you where the problem occurred, and then complete steps provided to remove the paper jam. If the printer does not display an information about the problem, check the information that came with the printer. If the printer is connected to a network domain, contact a system administrator or your company support desk.

    • Some printers offer a button that you can press on and hold, or paper feed another option that you can use to try to get the paper without damaging the printer.

    • You may need to open the printer casing and remove the paper that is the cause of the problem. Before do you, check the documentation that came with the printer to see if you put off the printer or take other measures to prevent injury to yourself or damage to the printer.

      You should also check if the printer box opening will result in the invalidity of the guarantee or any agreement to repair that you bought or supplied with the printer. For more information on the agreements, check the detail information and manufacturer supplied with the printer.

    If the problem persists, use the printer to help manual or contact the manufacturer of the printer to help.

    Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.
