Via "File/Options..." it is possible to clear the entire (dropdown) history for the "Find" and "Replace" boxes.
However, is it possible to delete just one or two items out of a longer list?
Out of interest, where is the list stored (file, registry)?
Thanks in advance,
Martin

To change individual entries you'd need to edit the .settings file.
It's in:
C:\Users\[YOUR USER NAME]\AppData\Local\TextCrawler\
Make a copy of the file first in case you break it! It's an XML file you an edit with notepad (or a better editor such as Notepad++) Look for the FindStrings and ReplaceStrings settings.

Thanks for that!
Editing the file (with Notepad++ of course
) worked a treat.
