MRU list is missing in Visual Studio
A few months ago, the MRU list in Visual Studio stopped working. Neither the File menu nor the start page displays any recently opened projects or solutions. I honestly don't know what I did to cause this, but perhaps someone who knows more about the dark depths of the sun can guess what made it disappear, and even better, how to get it back?
This is a fairly common Team Team VS2k8 SP1 installation running on an XP SP3 32-bit platform.
Edit: The registry key HKCU \ Software \ Microsoft \ VisualStudio \ 9.0 \ ProjectMRUList exists but is empty. The permissions for this registry key looks pretty normal. The user I'm running VS with has both read and write access (and has general admin rights).

Try to use recently used files (supported for 2010,2012 and 2013) that maintain the MRU list for each project.
Visual Studio 2012, 2013: http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/a61cbd1d-b5a2-490b-a6bb-f0ea3ecf214a Visual Studio 2010: http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/45283881-5a62-4dc1-8ffb -4cbc02709947
It's free and very efficient to manage MRU lists for your projects.
