Delete list of recent/current projects on the home screen

Hi

Is it possible to delete current/recent projects from the drop-down list on the home screen?

I have some directories that are redundant or incorrect now and would like to clear up the list. Is there a way to do it within Maya or is there some config file I need to adjust? I did come across a Reddit post about editing the UserPrefs file, but I'm not sure what line(s) would need removing/editing.

Thanks

This list is stored in Documents/maya/<version>/prefs/userPrefs_recents.mel

Awesome. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. 🙂 Although, it seems like whenever I edit that file and save, I'll reload Maya, and those same projects are still being listed. 😕 This is with Maya 2023.3 by the way.

EDIT: Or at the very least, one is still showing despite it not being listed in the file any more.

EDIT2: Okay, nevermind. All sorted now. Thanks again. 🙂
