Windows 10: delete recent photo activity

Hi,

I use windows 10 and have a dell Inspiron 3670 computer. When I type jpg in the task bar next to the windows logo a list of .jpg files comes up. If I click on one of them the picture shows up. My grand daughter sometimes uses my computer. How do I delete this list. One method I used in the past was to go to setting, then click on personalize. then click on start. Then I turn off show recently open items in jump list, etc. Now when I do this it has no effect. I have tried turning off my computer and turning it back on and this does not work. Thanks for listening.

:)
