Hi folks,

Each week I empty the list of My Recent Documents (just to keep things clear
and organised) but then I find that thereafter whenever I open a document
(such as a Word document, image file etc.) it doesn't appear on the My
Recent Documents list - as if I didn't even open it - it just says it's
empty.

I've found a workaround, and that is to go to C:\Documents and
Settings\JohnDoe\Recent, go to Properties, Security tab, and manually add my
username to the permissions with Full Control, but the next week when I
empty the list I have to do it again. Does anyone know of any way to 'fix
it' so that I don't have to keep following that process every time I empty
the list?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Dan.
