It's called an MRU (Most Recently Used) list, and
is typically stored in the Windows registry.
Of course given the Mach devs don't have much of a clue
about where you are supposed to put stuff (C;\Mach4? Sure!),
their list could be anywhere, but probably in the install
folder where they?dump everything else.
Use regedit to search for one of the files on the list, it
can search for 3 types of things so just leave 'Value'
ticked.? Try a partial match as well.? This will be a bit slow
as Values aren't indexed..
The reasons why no-one clears out the list is because it
wastes time, and the files may only be temporarily unavailable
(different flash drive, network drive etc) so wiping the
'dead' ones will annoy a different bunch of people.? There is
the occasional program that'll let you clear the list, not all
that common.

i wrote before with no
reply. Mach four maintains a recent fiels list
but there is no wa to get rid of old files. this make a logn
useless
list of current files mixed with a bunch of old deleted
stuff. makes it
a pain to choose the right file. easier to have a working
folder and do
the management yourself, where is this list found and can it
be edited?
or better yet why cant mach4 automatically delete files that
are nor found ?
