Where is the "recently opened files" list in Windows 8 Pro?

With the new format of starting "tiles", I see no list of recently opened files - where is it?  File Explorer has recent locations, but it's just folders, not files.

List of recently opened files - where is it?

File Explorer has recent locations, but it's just folders, not files.

In fact, I started my answer about it.   It is after all in Favorites (aka links).   So why not have Recent there too?  And why is not new just a hidden directory, but that you have to change your point of view to see?   ;  ]

  • where are the valid BACK files located in windows 7?

    I'm a key USB bootable recovery in what directory can I find the files BACK?
    1. pointing to c:/windows
    results - message: "there is no valid DOS system files at the specified location.
    2. I tried in c:/windows/system had the same message:
    "There is no valid DOS system files at the specified location.
    3. I tried in c:/windows/system32 got the same message:
    "There is no valid DOS system files at the specified location.

    If this directory files can the valid BACK is found

    The reason why you can't find the files BACK, it's that there is no place for BACK in Windows 7. BACK is a legacy 16 - bit operating system introduced 30 years ago. Its files will not work on Windows 7 machines.

    Windows 7 has a built-in tool to create a bootable CD, the "Windows repair CD. You can do this via the control panel / backup and restore. It is much more powerful than the BACK: it gives you full access to all partitions NTFS and it can accomplish several tasks. BACK could never do either. Highly recommended.

  • Delete only a few files from the recent open those

    I would like to delete some files in the recently opened files only leaving the most used in the list, that is, I don't want to delete all the files in the list, the only option I have in the menu. I managed to do that but can't remember how I did. I use PS CC 2015.1.2.

    Do not delete the files; Move them to another location. Then, click on the files in the list of recent files. Photoshop will not find files and removes them from the list.

    You can then return the files to their original location.

    There is no other way to selectively remove the files in the list.

  • How can I determine the full path and name of the currently open file .ai?

    In Photoshop, right click the file name of the current open file shows an option 'Reveal in Explorer' so I know exactly where the file was opened from.

    In Lightroom, it is displayed in the metadata.

    New to illustrator, I looked in the options of the menu get charge can not see how to find this information.

    Would appreciate the help.

    agckent,

    Is it ALWAYS the case where the folder opened by "Save AS" is the file of the source code for the file that I am saving?

    I believe, with a reservation for the strange behaviour of the different OS versions: in the contrary case, the save option under would lead astray you.

  • Where are the "System Restore" files in Windows Vista Home Premium

    Where are the "System Restore" files in Windows Vista Home Premium.

    I would like to simplify the installation process.

    Is there a program in Windows Vista Home Premium which can create an image disk for future use.

    Is there a good disk image program/software?

    Can I record a restore point on an external drive? That is, only the last 5 days of "restore points" are available in the system restore.

  • When you open several image files in CC they float to the back, behind the current open files

    When I work on an image or images (not Docked (fasteners) in PS CC on iMac OS x 10.9 Maverick, if I open a new file, it opens in the front.  The newly open file open hidden/behind the currently open files, and yet if I got to the drop down window it clearly shows the newly opened file is selected and the file I'm working on, even if its behind all images previously opened and I cannot see it entirely.  Hard to explain but everyone has found this question?   Its weird and awkward when working at full capacity.

    Hello

    1A Windows XP installed properly on your computer?

    2. If it is installed, you face any problem with Windows XP?

    I suggest you try the methods mentioned below and check if it helps:

     

    Method 1:

    Try to do a Scan SFC (System File Checker). The scan will look bad system files and will attempt to fix them, if possible.

    (a) click the Start button.
    (b) type: cmd.exe in the search results.
    (c) right click the cmd.exefile and select 'run as administrator '.
    (d) in the CMD window, type:sfc/scannowand press the Enter key.
    (e) restart and see if that solves the problem.

  • Win 7 by default, the white arrow and the "cursor corrupted files" pop-up windows.

    Original title: Max the mouse

    I had a little friendly MS mouse pointer / cursor schema greet me on the initialize upward from Win 98 to Win 2000 Milnm, finally to Win XP.  It was simple, little grey mouse that has nibbled cheese if the program was busy.  Since the abandonment of Win XP, I bought a Dell E6440 with Win 7 Pro installed. I used a USB transfer cable / program to migrate settings and files above. My favorite mouse pointer scheme is not. I tried to change my plan of cursor recorded, but Win 7 by default, the white arrow and the "cursor corrupted files" pop-up windows.

    Someone at - he saw this original classic pointer / cursor for Win 7 64 bit?

    Thank you, Mr. Singh. That did not help.  But for the record, I finally found the correct cursor plan I was looking here: http://www.rw-designer.com/cursor-set/mouse download a .zip file that I had bad access to when you change the pointer of the mouse, but resolved by downloading each schema of cursor .ani and .cur individually on the site. I used this from Win 98 to Win XP.
