    Pretty simple problem: when I first bought my computer it came with a pre-installed OEM of Windows 11.

    \Applets\Paint\Recent File List" -name file1

    ...

    you get the idea. ( too lazy to put it in a for loop and test it.

    or just open regedit and remove all the fileX from that key.
