WindowsRunHistoryEditor1.3.1.0

WindowsRunHistoryEditor is a feather-light application you can use to access and manage Windows Run history. It remembers the last 26 entries entered in the dialog, giving you the possibility to remove or replace them with new records.

No setup required, besides .NET Framework

The program was developed with the aid of .NET Framework, so you must have this software framework installed to get the tool up and running.The downloaded files can be copied anyplace on the hard drive or removable storage devices to directly launch the app on any PC. However, you should make sure the device isn't write-protected, since it auto-updates its files to remember your settings on exit.

Access and manage the MRU list

Concerning the interface, the app opts for a large window that reveals all 26 entries. Because Run history is stored by the operating system and this program only facilitates access to it, it even shows records made before downloading and launching WindowsRunHistoryEditor. If not all 26 boxes are occupied, then you can add new records.Any box can be edited, cleared or replaced with a new entry, and all data can be emptied with one click if you're interested in protecting your privacy from other PC users regarding files, folders and programs you've accessed in the past.All modifications are applicable with one click, and there's no need to reboot the computer. It's also possible to reset the configuration to the default state (before committing changes), as well as to toggle between the English and German language for the interface.

Evaluation and conclusion

Its impact on the machine's performance was barely noticeable in our tests, since it used a low amount of CPU and RAM. WindowsRunHistoryEditor remained stable throughout its runtime, without hanging, crashing or prompting errors.Thanks to its approachable GUI and options, it can be seamlessly handled by those looking to access and edit Run history recorded by the operating system.
