“Recently used file list” grayed out on Word
If Microsoft Word is no longer displaying recently used files in the Files menu, and if the “Recently used file list” option is grayed out in Tools > Options > General, you should change the value of “Add new documents to Documents on Start Menu” in TweakUI.
If you’re not using TweakUI and if you feel comfortable futzing with your Registry, go here:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\
Set “NoRecentDocsHistory” to 0.
If you don’t understand what I’m saying, then you shouldn’t be futzing with the Registry. If you do, then you know to export a copy of your registry and you know not to sue me when your whole system starts to smell of burning grease.
