Variable or command Number of recently used

Hello boys how are you.
Could someone tell me with which variable or command I can modify the Number of recently-used files in Application Menu.
Thank you.

Looks like you got it.  I think 9 is the maximum.

Hi @john.uhden the maximum is 50.
What I want is a variable or command to modify it from LISP

@carlos_m_gil_p ,

I have been trying to find a variable to control this for the last ~30 minutes.

I can not find anything that relates or will adjust it.

I can tell you that the variable you are NOT looking for is the "MRUFilesToList" Environment Variable (it changes the option above the one you have highlighted).

Best of luck searching.

Best,

~DD

I don't think you can modify it from lisp. The recent Files list is stored in the registry, and despite this number, there will eventually be fifty files (the max) stored in the registry. If you want a list of these files see THIS

Hi @CodeDing 

Yes, I already tried that variable and it didn't work.

Hi @dlanorh 

I don't want a list of these files.
I just want to modify the amount that is going to show.
Put a specific value between 1 and 50.

As I mentioned in my previous post, I don't think this is possible using lisp. You can access the number via preferences-opensave-mrunumber property, but this is listed as read only.

It's not stored in the registry, and it's not saved as a system variable. It may be possible using arx or .NET, but not lisp.

Perfect, thanks for the information.
