MS Word 2010 - How to programatically clear the "Document Recovery"

According to this StackOverflow question (Document Recovery), it's not possible to turn off the "Document Recovery" in MS Word 2010. From time to time I need to kill some winword processes which are stored in this "Document Recovery" and when there are tens or hundreds of them, application stops to generate Word documents and I need to manually open Word document and click "Close" in the "Document Recovery".

So, is it possible to automatically clear the "Document Recovery" in MS Word 2010? How to access it with Powershell or .Net?

What you want to do is remove the appropriate registry key(s):

HKUser:(SID)\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\(Office application)\Resiliency\DocumentRecovery
