So, this is one I forgot until I was recently reminded of it.  You can now REMOVE projects/solutions from the Recent Projects list on your Start Page and File Menu!  Just Right-Click the project/solution and select "Remove From List".  That's it.  The project/solution has been removed from the list BUT NOT DELETED.  If you want to permanently delete the project you need to do that yourself from the file system.

    You can also delete a project file by deleting it in solution explorer.

    You can also do this in VS2008 if you install the PowerCommands, as well as a lot of other really cool things (collapse every project, anyone!): http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/PowerCommands

    Whenever I right click on a project or solution in the Recent Project and Solutions sub menu, nothing happens. I don't get the option of removing the recent project or solution.

    What version of VS are you using?  This only works in VS2010.

    It doesn't work even in VS2010 on the File Menu

    Bob :) Yes it does but the only way to do it is through the Start Page.  Once it is removed from the Start Page you will see it is also removed from the File Menu (Recent Projects and Solutions). Z
