The Recent Files feature allows you to view, and re-load if necessary, the most recent eight files that had been loaded. When you drag your cursor over Recent Files, a fly-out window will appear containing the names of each of these files, with the most recent listed first. If no files had been opened prior to this feature being selected, the fly-out window will be grayed out.

To load a file that appears in the Recent Files list, click the file name.
