How can I clear recently opened files when I shut down Windows 7?

On the computer, press win key + R and fill in "gpedit. msc" in the pop-up box. After running the command, the system will enter the "Group Policy" editor;

On the System Group policy page, find "user configuration"> "management template"> "taskbar and [start] menu" and "do not keep records of recently opened documents". "and" clear records of recently opened documents at exit, you can enable them here;

Set its attribute to "enabled ".

All right, if you have started these two items, shut them down and then clear the recently opened files. Of course, you can also enable them here for the latest projects.
