Disable Search Term History

Post by hurricane51 »

I've been reading through the Configuration options and these pages but I can't find a way to prevent XY from keeping a history of search terms entered in the Find Files. Perhaps it's called something else?

This is part of the most-recently-used lists.

You can keep XY from saving this between sessions by going to Configuration | Startup & Exit | Include most-recently-used lists on save clicking Apply to... and then unchecking Find Files Patterns and Locations.

If you want to clear the list during a session you have to do so manually by going to Tools | List Management and then selecting Find Files: Name... or Find Files: Location... depending on which you want to clear.

Hope that helps!
