Hello:

It was suggested that I set the Scan Configuration settings of AdAware SE to scan for "Negligible Objects" information. Usually , these are Most Recently Used [MRU] items.

1) What is the function of these MRU files?

2) Will I lose valuable data if I simply allow Adaware to remove them?

3) Is this true for registry items in the "Negligible Object" category as well?

Thanks in advance:

Eliuri

What are MRU's?

Negligible risk entries are not considered to be a threat. They consist of MRU (Most Recently Used items) lists which store information about the most recently used items, for example files, search words and programs. The MRU lists can be removed if the user desires.
