Delete file history and recent files command

[alan65]

I would like a command (with icon) that will delete the file history and list of recently accessed files. I found a way to do it by directly editing the xyplorer.ini file, but I think it's a feature that should be built-in.

These short scripts can be used anywhere like in the Address bar or on a Customized Toolbar Button, Catalog, etc.

Delete History sendkeys '%n{Enter}%c{Enter}'; #618;
Delete Recent Files sendkeys '%n{Enter}%c{Enter}'; #632;
Delete Recent Locations sendkeys '%n{Enter}%c{Enter}'; #631;

You can also use List Management under the Tools Menu to delete these lists or take a look at List Management House Cleaning script viewtopic.php?f=7&t=13948

klownboy,
Thanks for you suggestions. They are VERY helpful. I'm still new to XYplorer and am still learning how to make customizations of this type.

Thank you. You can actually combine all three of those into one script to clean all of them at once in user defined command or a CTB. It's a bit of a hacky way of automating the process (i.e., sendkeys is undocumented script command), but it works. The screen will flicker as sendkeys does its work.
