    ...

    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.

    How to get list of recent files after right click on pinned apps in start menu?

    In Windows 10, when I right clicked on the pinned apps in the start menu, the drop down list would include the recent files used by the app.

    This doesn't seem to be the case in 11 (which I just got today). \

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks.
