How to Remove My Documents folder from the Start Menu in XP?

Locked

by rferdous · about 16 years, 3 months ago

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am trying to remove the My Documents folder from the Start Menu of Windows XP Professional edition. Is there a way to remove it temporarily?

Another point is that if I keep the My Documents folder in the Start Menu then is it possible to customize the My Documents such a way so that it does not keep/show the recently used file names?

Your kind tips regarding this issue is very much appreciated.

Best regards,

Raihan.
