    View original path in Recent Folders


    I find the most convenient way to manage my project files is by using Recent Folders pinned to Quick Access.However, I am at an architectural practice and we use a common folder system in each project folder.For example each project folder contains the same set of subfolders:- Info In- Info Out- Images- Models- Layout- Technical Drawings- PDFMy problem is that, because I work between multiple projects at a time, and because these are all common sub-folder titles, I can end up with a Recent Folders window containing multiple folders with the same title. There is no way of telling which Project

    :)

    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.
