I have attached two *.ini files. One from Revit 2008, and one from 2009.
I understand from searching the forum that there is no off switch to surpress this new feature in 2009. However it occured to me that perhaps by comparing the previous *.ini against the new, then maybe a switch could be found.
I will post a thread in API to link to this thread, as it may equally answered there.
If you understand *.ini editing, is switching off the "Recent Files" feature possible?
