    Recent Files in Home are not being arranged according to date last accessed.


    I got an update for Windows 11 yesterday and from today every time I open the Home it is arranged in different locations according to time stamps but I want them all to be arranged by the time I last accessed them. I have checked I have not made any filter settings. I just know this differentiation is coming according to the time of the downloading of files but I want the time last accessed to be the first filter to separate the files.So please help me in changing the filtering settings in Win 11.Link for screenshot: Screenshot 129.png

    :)

    Recent File List

    Remove-ItemProperty -Path "Registry::HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
    \Applets\Paint\Recent File List" -name file1

    Remove-ItemProperty -Path "Registry::HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
    \Applets\Paint\Recent File List" -name file2
    Remove-ItemProperty -Path "Registry::HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion

    Remove-ItemProperty -Path "Registry::HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
    \Applets\Paint\Recent File List" -name file9
    ...

    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.

    Recent files access

    Hi my name is Ross, I'm an independent advisor. I'd be happy to help with your issue.

    Depending on the update being installed this can sometimes be an entirely new version of the software so these list don’t carry over.

    You can access recent documents by following these steps:

    Press Windows Key + E.

    Under File Explorer, select Quick access.

    Now, you will find a section Recent files which will display all the recently viewed files/documents.

    Regarding your issue with Facebook, have you installed the app and you are having issues opening this?

    If so I would suggest going to settings/apps and removing the app before reinstalling, this clears up most issues.

    Regards,

    Ross
