I opened build 013 and went to open recent as I have for days now, but it was grayed out. I could not get open recent to re-activate until I saved-as an exiting file.
Seems like:
Update clobbers recent list
Simply opening a file does not a recent file make, and it should be enough, and not require a save.
The open recent list is saved in settings.xml. You may want to copy over the old configuration file when a new version is downloaded.
Oh but that just reminds me, although unrelated, I shouldn’t have let the installer to override settings.xml on Windows.
