Remove app shortcut from recently used programs

Hello,

I made a setup of .net app. It is working fine but has one problem. After uninstallation, app icon is still displayed in recently used programs in left of startup menu of windows xp.

I also tried with registry editing with following localtion but no result.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Explorer\FileAssociation
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explorer

Any help would be great.

Thanks
