Is there anyway to stop Viewing Recent projects in VS?

I don't want my recent projects to be viewed in the start page of Visual studio, I know how to delete them from the registry but i do not want to do this every time. Is there 开发者_Python百科any option to stop this?

Short answer, no. It is a 'feature' of the start page. The only quick option I can think of would be to turn off the Start Page (it is almost the first setting I change with a fresh install of VS).

If you wanted to be really tricky you could write a small start-up or shut-down macro that auto deletes those keys from the registry and (not sure if this would work and it is dangerous) change the permissions for the registry key where the recent projects are saved.
