How to Remove Entries from the Remote Desktop Connection Computer Box
SUMMARY
This article describes how to remove entries from the Remote Desktop Connection Computer box.
MORE INFORMATION
After you use the Remote Desktop Connection tool to make a connection to another computer, the name of the computer to which you connected is added to the Remote Desktop Connection Computer box. This makes it easy for you to quickly select the same computer at a later time. However, the Remote Desktop Connection tool does not provide a way to clear the list of computers or remove one or more entries from the Computer box.
Removing Entries in the Windows Remote Desktop Connection Client
To remove entries from the Remote Desktop Connection Computer box in the Windows Remote Desktop Connection client, start Registry Editor (Regedit.exe), and navigate to the the following key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Terminal Server Client \ Default
In the right pane, entries appear as MRU0, MRU1, MRU2 and so forth. To delete an entry, right-click it, and then click Delete.
Close Regedit.exe
To delete all the MRU entries, you may use the following command from Start, Run dialog:
reg delete "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Terminal Server Client\Default" /va /f

Good info.
Now, how about a way to ADD to the max count of 10 entries remembered, say 20?

Second that, 10 is too small of a connection cache for what I do, never found a way to expand it, but you know it remembers info for far more than 10 since it will recall security info for names not in the connection history...
