Windows 7: Show Recent Files on Quicklaunch

gyverd · 09 Feb 2010

Hi, I'm already trying to show history in my quick-launch but I still can't find how to do it.

For example :

In quick-launch there is a Photoshop shortcut, when I using right click it will show the recent files. Right ?

But my problem is in My KMPlayer, no matter what I do, the recent files would not showing, even in start menu it don't show the recent files. The recent files only show in KMPlayer itself. It just happened 3 days ago ( before that, it's work fine ), the recent files is suddenly disappear and never show anymore.

Anybody know how to show it again ? I'm already tried to uninstall and installed it, but still the same.

Thanks before.

No Problem. This is what I do

Code:

This process erases all the pinned items on all of your programs (you'll have to pin them again afterwards), but the functionality of the windows explorer jumplist will return to normal.

1. Delete all files at %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\AutomaticDestinations
2. Delete all files at %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\CustomDestinations
3. Reboot
4. Re-pin all the items you wish

Thanks to Miguel_pt who shared this trick
