How to clean up the list of "recent" files?

Sep 19, 2007 5 Replies

Quicken maintains a list of recently opened data files, accessible from the File menu. I use a couple of data files and having these in the list is helpful but the list now has some crufty entries because I've moved my data files to a different folder (i.e., instead of having two files listed I now have four, but two of those are no longer valid entries). I'd like to clean up this list, either by removing two individual entries or clearing the list entirely and letting Quicken re-create the list as I open the files, but I can't find a way to do this.



This file list is not in the Quicken.ini file and I could not readily identfiy a file in my Quicken directory that appears to contain this information. But I presume it's there, somewhere. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks. (please reply to group; email address is invalid)

I believe it is in Quicken.ini.

Close Quicken. Open up Quicken.ini. The list is in there somewhere. Since I have Vista, finding things has gotten much more difficult, and I couldn't double-check.

Finally found the info in quser.ini

Thanks, Han-- "quser.ini" was indeed what I needed. All set now.

I would like an answer to this question too, thanks
