Quick Access - 'Show recently used files' setting disables itself
Hi,
I've got a pretty simple bug, I'm hoping it's been had before and there's a solution out there somewhere as Google got nothing.
I noticed that none of my programs were getting the 'Recent files' jump list and went hunting for an applicable setting, so most important is to fix this issue, but I feel like the one I found trying to fix that is related...
If I open explorer, right click 'Quick access' and click 'Options' then on the General tab the "Show recently used files in Quick access" setting is disabled. I never disabled this (though I'm not sure if it ever was working?), and if I enable it, apply, close the window and open it again, the setting has completely reverted (though the explorer window appeared to do some redraws on clicking apply).
I'm not sure if that setting is even related to the missing 'Recent files' jump lists, but I really want them back so I can pin all my notes to notepad, and it's a pretty clear bug so I'm hoping the methods to fix them may at least be similar.
Hope someone can help...
