"Recent Files" not working

Post by xeo »

Hi, "Recent Files" function is not working in my PSP.
I have it enabled in Preferences/Miscellaneous but I never have any files listed, it's just always empty.
Also I don't have that function in Commands customization

Why is that?

Recent Files was not included in the Customization listing from PSP X4 onwards.
You have not mentioned which version you are using.
Have you tried resetting the program, - holding the Shift key down as you click the desktop icon to start the program.
Systems available Win7, Win 8.1,Win 10 Version 1607 Build 14393.2007 & version 20H2 Build 19042.867

I have this problem since X5 to X8 I believe.
Resetting settings not helps.
Maybe you can tell me which registry key is responsible for this function and this setting in preferences?

Works fine in PSPX8 SP1:

Try resetting your program using the Shift Key.
Close PSP, open it holding the Shift key and reset.

yes I did it, not helping, I even have this after reinstalling program and using Cleanup.
I think something with the registry is not ok.
