Classic Shell: Forum

Recent items list seemed to be working then I lost them. It happened after I re-organized the menus (right click start orb, open and open all users) then move things around. Did I screw something up?

I tried the settings, they don't seem to affect anything, but sometimes I get Classic Menu selections on the recent items list, but never anything else. Also, the Recent Items box is empty even if the recent items list shows something.

Program is great, one of the two programs I wish I wrote.

EDIT: OK here's a weird one for you, the list gets Classic Shell items and WinRAR, but won't see MS Word, Adobe Acrobat, or Image Burn. ARGGGHHH!!!!

Maybe the list got cleared? Check if "Show recent programs" is checked on General Behavior tab in Settings. You will need to run programs at least once before they appear in the MRU list of programs. Do programs not appear even after running them once? A screenshot would make things clear.
