How to disable/reduce "Recent Locations list?
How can I either reduce the "Recent Location" list to 1 entry of even disable it completely?

1) Edit/Delete it: Tools | List Management | Recent Locations...
2) Forget it across sessions: Untick "History" here:
Configuration | General | Startup & Exit | Save Settings | Apply to...

Re: How to disable/reduce "Recent Locations list?
It seems to work but only partially.
I cleared successfully all entries as you said.
Then I setup my configuration as depicted in the attached snapshot
Then I worked a while.
When I click again on the "Recent Locations" toolbar icon then all previous (since the clear) visited folders appear.
No files are listed.
So again: How do I really disable ALL items in recent location list (INCLUDING folders)?
Thank you

You seem to want to turn off the Recent Locations feature entirely. That's not possible.

Not possible?
Wow! Such an advanced tool like XYplorer does not offer this option?
I am surprised.
How can I officially create a feature request?

Since you posted pics of Save Settings...: Can you exactly define what you want?

I want NO items (no files, no folders) in "Recent Locations" - At least not after Exit of XYplorer

"At least not after Exit of XYplorer" -> That works well. Simply untick "History" in "Configuration | General | Startup & Exit | Save Settings | Include most-recently-used lists on save | Apply to...", or untick the whole "Configuration | General | Startup & Exit | Save Settings | Include most-recently-used lists on save".

Re: How to disable/reduce "Recent Locations list?
As you can see on my snapshot in previous posting I already unticked BOTH checkboxes you suggested.
But it doesn't help
Folders still appear in Recent Location list when I click on the toolbar icon
Any other suggestion?
