Files opened from TC not added to Windows Recent file list

Post by *9kvD38n6 »

When I open files, e.g. .jpg images, from TC (e.g. by double-clicking), no shortcuts to these files are added to
f:\Users\Me\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\ .

However, when I double-click the same file in Windows Explorer, the shortcut is added.

How can I configure TC to behave like Explorer in this respect? Couldn't find info in TC help, nor any old threads.

BTW, I'm using Win 7 32-bit.

Thanks!

Update: Strangely, it works for .doc files, but doesn't for images, .pdf, .txt or video files.

Hi, here is one old thread, that should explain the current behavior. But in short, you can't do that in current TC.
Windows 10 Pro x64, Windows 11 Pro x64

Thanks for the link. I'd totally missed that thread, which answers all of my questions.
