How to update the items stored in the window's Previous Locations menu
Hello,
I'm sure this has been asked many times before, but I cannot find a satisfactory answer to my problem, despite many searches. The mysterious 'previous locations' at the top of a window seems like it should be very useful:
But, in common with many other users out there, my system only displays these same, useless few folders which I haven't accessed in months. The double-arrow thing to the right - which looks like some kind of 'update' function - seemingly does absolutely nothing. I have, therefore, completely ignored this. But I'd LOVE to have quick access to my recent stuff - I know there's the sub-menu from the Start menu, but this is no use when I'm saving a file (unless there was a way to force the file selector dialog box to jump to a location that's already open in an Explorer window on the desktop, like on a Mac).
I found what should have been a useful link on Microsoft's site, but it's broken:

On a similar note, why does the search box sometimes appear and sometimes not appear in the top-right corner? There seems to be no logic to its behaviour.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Paul
