Dear all, 

How can I clear Quartus' recent files and recent projects menus? 

Thanks in advance.

Has this ever been solved? 

 

I'd also be interested to clear the list!

I have mine in ~/.altera.quartus/quartus2.qreg 

(16.smth version) 

Grep your paths in the folder. 

 

Killing this file clears all the data, license info etc. 

 

You can back it up and try editing or killing. If not happy - restore from backup.

You don't need to delete the entire settings file. 

 

Open the quartus2.qreg file in a text editor and delete the lines beginning with: 

 

Quartus_UI_Framework\quartus.exeMRUFiles= Quartus_UI_Framework\quartus.exeMRUProjects= Quartus_UI_Framework\Last_Project_Open=  

 

Deleting those lines will clear the list for recent files, recent projects, and last project open respectively.
