  1. remove former employer from Windows Search menu


    Greetings.For the past year, I've used my personal laptop for work. I had two Office365 Profiles -- personal, and work. I've deleted the work profile, and have scoured the Registry for every instance of my former employer's name, and have removed it.However, in the windows Search menu the large square menu that appears when you click the magnifying glass at lower left just right of the Windows icon., my former employer's name, and its recommendations, still appear in the Windows Search screen Since the data isn't in the Registry that I can detect, I'm guessing that it's in my MS Window

    :)

    Feature suggestion: Add right-click menu

    Suggestion: Please add a Windows 7 Jump-List and/or right-click menu to the GPU-Z icon in the Windows taskbar. Possible menus in it would be "Exit" and "About GPU-Z...".
    Maybe also "Switch to tab 1/Switch to tab 2/Switch to videocard 1/Switch to videocard 2" too.
    Examples of programs that have such menus are ICQ, Skype, AIM.

    NOTE: It seems for a right-click menu, Windows 7 is not needed - it works on WinXP and Vista too.
    But even a Windows 7 Jump-list may be good enough.
    What do you think?
