Data type | Range | Default value |
---|---|---|
REG_DWORD | 0x0 - 0xFFFFFFFF shortcuts | 0xF (15 shortcuts) |
Determines how many shortcuts the system can display in the Documents menu on the Start menu.
This entry stores the setting of the Maximum number of recent documents Group Policy. Group Policy adds this entry to the registry when you enable the Maximum number of recent documents policy. If you disable the policy or set it to Not configured, Group Policy deletes the entry from the registry and the system behaves as though the value is 15.
The Documents menu contains shortcuts to the non-program files the user has most recently opened.
To change the value of this entry, use Group Policy. This entry corresponds to the Maximum number of recent documents policy (User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Windows Explorer).
Tip
For detailed information about particular Group Policy settings, see the Group Policy Reference (Gp.chm) on the Windows 2000 Resource Kit companion CD.
