Showing More Than 10 Recent Files In Photoshop


Showing More Than 10 Recent Files In Photoshop

By default, when you go up to the File menu at the top of the screen and choose Recent Files, Photoshop only shows you the last 10 files you've opened. Photoshop actually keeps track of the last 30 files you've opened, but it only shows you the 10 most recent.
We can change that though and have Photoshop show us all 30 recent files if we want by pressing Ctrl+K (Win) / Command+K(Mac) and bringing up Photoshop's Preferences dialog box.
When the dialog box appears, press Next to move to the File Handling preferences, and the option at the very bottom says Recent file list contains. The default value is 10. Change it to 30 or some number between 0 and 30 depending on how many you wish to view, and then click OK to exit out of the dialog box.

If you go back up to the File menu and back to Open Recent, you'll now see 30 recent files instead of 10 (assuming you've opened at least 30 files in Photoshop) or however many you set in the File Handling preferences.
