How to Clear the File Names in Photoshop
Adobe Photoshop keeps a list of the files you've opened recently. This feature helps you access your current working files quickly, without having to spend time browsing through numerous folders to find them. Sometimes, however, you may want to clear the list of file names, either for privacy when using shared computers, or to remove files that you are not using anymore.
