How to Remove a Recent List From QuickTime

QuickTime is a multimedia player that allows you to playback videos and music in many different formats including MP4, and MP3. It is a cross-platform application available for both Windows and Macs. By default, QuickTime stores a "Recent" list, which allows you to view your recently accessed media files. If you want to protect your privacy, you can easily clear this list.

Instructions

1. Launch the QuickTime player on your computer. You can launch QuickTime from the dock on your Mac computer or from the Start menu if you are using Windows.

2. Click the "File" menu located on the top. Scroll down the pop-up menu and highlight the "Open Recent" option.

3. Click "Clear Menu" to remove your recent QuickTime list. Confirm that the list is clear by clicking "File" again and highlighting "Open Recent." You should no longer see a list of your recently viewed media files.
