Clearing list of recently opened files

SketchUp Pro
6

The automated way on MS Windows is via a command.

With SketchUp closed.

  1. Right-click the Windows menu button on the taskbar.
  2. Choose “Command Prompt (Admin)”
  3. Paste the following reg.exe command into the console at the prompt.
reg delete "HKCU\Software\SketchUp\SketchUp 2018\Recent File List" /va /f
  1. Hit ENTER.
  2. Upon success you see the following message:
    "The operation completed successfully."

If like you can copy the command into a text editor and save with a .cmd file extension.
Then you can run the cmd script any time you wish to clear the file list when SketchUp is closed.
