Where's the Drawing History?

[rlaycock]

I've checked out various posts on Drawing History problems but none that I can find tell us where that history listing is maintained. I need to debug a problem in my ACAD 2013 drawing history.  It's cycling drawings from a month ago or so in sequence.  I need to flush that cached listing.

Where is it kept?

Thanks in advance...

Are you talking about the recent files list on the Application menu?

Yes.

Do you open files from inside AutoCAD with OPEN command, or do you double-click in Widnows Explorer to open files?

Worth reading while you wait, nice tip for the future about creating a log: http://forums.augi.com/showthread.php?44066-Drawing-History-list-of-opened-DWG-s-during-the-last-few...

That's from 2002? I don't need that. Where's the list maintained?

FWIW, I always open inside ACAD because I run three different versions. 2013 is the system default but I don't do the double click thing because it's a bad habit on my system.

It's in the registry. Sorry, I don't have time to hunt down the location at the moment.

Give this a look - the tool mentioned here may help you.

Thanks. That's all I needed. It's in HKCU... Recent File List.

Perfect.
