Solve : Acrobat Reader Recently Used Files? |
|
Answer» Hey, in Office I keep the "Recently Used File" list set to ZERO... Lots of people use these machines, and it doesn't do for folks to be following what other people have been reading/writing/etc. Try one of these solutions... (1) Access the Acrobat Help feature or website and find out that way...Quote ...and I can't find any documentation anywhere that will let me change it...Of COURSE I've tried soapy water! But CCleaner, as I understand it, only works if I run CCleaner and say - hey, DELETE this list. In MS Office, I set the list to ZERO, and that way there is NO list. Anybody have any thoughts on how to do that in Reader?Perhaps you already know this, but I'll post just in case you don't know. I don't know how to MAKE Reader SHOW no recently used files but you can cut it down to 1. Go to Edit, Preferences, and select Startup on left side of panel. Under Opening Documents, you can set "Maximum doucments in most-recently used list:". You can not set the value to 0; the lowest value it will accept is 1. So, yeah, looks like a registry change may be the solution. I don't know where to find the applicable registry entry. And, by the way, CCleaner will remove any items from the most recently used files list but, as you said, it must be run to remove them. Here's a solution that costs some money: http://www.softstack.com/evterminate.html See, I couldn't find that... Oh, wait... Right as I was posting a screenshot, I found it. Duh... At least now I can look for something in the reg! Thanks... it's a clue to a deeper mystery....Alright, folks, I'm going in! Who's with me? |
