How to Increase the number of recently run programs in Start panel


In our daily life, we spend a very large amount of time in navigating through computer programs in start panel. By fixing some useful programs in front left of start panel, we can save our lots of time. This feature can become a very useful to those users, which uses some specific number of programs daily. By doing this, they don’t have any need to navigate through the programs in start panel.

Changing the number of programs depends completely on personal preference. By design, the Start panel cannot contain more than 30 programs on the list and most of the user cannot be able to do so. For adding that much programs in start panel a user must have a large monitor (  larger then 17inches ) with 1280 X 1024 Resolution. The most common computer screen resolution is 1024 X 768. At that resolution, 22 programs can fit on the Start panel when the small icons are used. If you are using an older computer with a resolution of 800 X 600, then you will only be able to display 15 programs on your Frequently Run Programs list.

  •                 Right click the Start button and select Properties.
  •                Click the Customize button to show the Customize Start Menu options.



  •  Adjust the value by Clicking up or down in “ Number of programs on Start menu” option.
  • Click OK to get finished.
