I would like to have a larger MRU history when I use the RUN command.

Is there a way to make it bigger ?

Thanks.

The strings are saved in the registry and each receives an alphabet letter assignment. Unfortunately for you this means that there is only a 26 item buffer.

If you need more then I'll suggest a couple of ideas.

Use a third party application.
Take Command for instance has a 4000 - 500000 Character History List Size
Create a scripting solution which extracts your MRU registry information to a file, removes duplicates and propagates a scrollable or searchable listbox for injection into a new command session
