If you never tweaked the Home Screens. Look for the files under \Windows folder.
If you are using a custom Home Screen, they can be found here
\IPSM\Application Data\Home\
To modify the Screen. Make a copy the HomeScreen you like to your desktop. Lets say you copied Full.Home.XML to your PC. Then rename it to MyFull.Home.XML.
NExt open the XML in a notepad. Before you look for the MRU. Change the <title lang="nnnn"> Full Layout</title> to <title lang="nnnn">My Full Layout</title> for each Lang entry.
Then modify the MRU icon size.
Next Copy the MyFull.Home.XML to \IPSM\Application Data\Home.
Now launch the Program->Settings->Home Screen. And Select "My Full Layout" from the List.
