Visual SVN for VS2010 is holding on to stale reference to deleted branch

I'm using the Visual SVN client plug-in for Visual Studio 2010.

I recently created a branch in Visual SVN, but I accidentally saved it in to the wrong location, specifying "NewName" under "trunk/" instead of under "branches/". Before I realized the error, I had switched between the 2 version in the "Subversion Branch URL" dropdown in the toolbar several times.

After creating a new branch under "branches/", I deleted the the original branch, but the dropdown in the Visual SVN plugin is still holding on to a reference to the stale/deleted branch. I'm unable to delete the dropdown reference to "trunk/NewName". Is there a way to do this?

I've even tried editing the registry, but this didn't help.

If you would like to clear the list of most recently used branches you should delete the .suo file of your solution. Visual Studio must be closed when you delete this file.

VisualSVN just keeps list of 50 most recent branches. This list stored in Visual Studio .suo file. VisualSVN doesn't access server to retrieve this list.
