You might not like other people to see which programs you run.
This tweak cleans the history.

Go to the registry key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RunMRU

This key stores the history. Just delete everything.
The history will be empty the next time you start Windows.
