Description xandrani 2010-04-27 21:21:31 UTC 
Regarding 'recent files list':

1) If a 'recent file' is selected and does not exist... then remove it!  Having it remain is pointless.
2) Allow for the emptying of this menu.

I have lot's of 'recent files' most of which are now invalid... due to this fact the functionality is almost redundant as the REAL files are lost in the chatter.

I'm going to have to fix this by googling / regedit / editing of doxygen settings file... not a good workaround ;)
Comment 1 xandrani 2010-04-27 21:34:25 UTC 
Here's a work around aimed at most levels of user:

1) Go to start menu
2) Select 'Run...'
3) Type regedit, and then press enter.
4) Browse to here: HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Doxygen.org/Doxywizard/
5) Delete the relevant config0, config1, config2 etc... that represent the 'recent files' list.
Comment 2 Dimitri van Heesch 2010-04-30 10:44:08 UTC 
Confirmed. I'll change doxywizard such that non-existent files are skipped and add a menu option to clear the recent file list.
Comment 3 Dimitri van Heesch 2010-06-15 11:22:08 UTC 
This bug was previously marked ASSIGNED, which means it should be fixed in
doxygen version 1.7.0. Please verify if this is indeed the case. Reopen the
bug if you think it is not fixed and please include any additional information
that you think can be relevant.
