Description kotyczka 2016-03-30 11:05:54 UTC 
When I open several configuration files - one after the other - this happens

open file Doxy1 -> file Doxy1 appears in recent file list
open file Doxy2 -> file Doxy3 appears in recent file list
open file Doxy3 -> file Doxy3 appears in recent file list

everything is OK, in regedit I see:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Doxygen.org\Doxywizard\recent]
"config0"="D:/3/Doxy3"
"config1"="D:/2/Doxy2"
"config2"="D:/1/Doxy1

Next I close Doxygen, still in the registry all 3 files are listed.
When reopening the Doxygen GUI one entry is gone:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Doxygen.org\Doxywizard\recent]
"config0"="D:/1/Doxy1"
"config1"="D:/3/Doxy3"
"config2"=""

And the entries are sorted in a strange manner.
I don't see any option to modify how many entries are
allowed in the recent file list.

I consider this a bug affecting user satisfaction.

This bug was previously marked ASSIGNED, which means it should be fixed in
doxygen version 1.8.12. 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 (preferably in the form of a self-contained example).
