Remove Recents Folder

Windows uses the special recents folder to remember which files you have opened. You can have a look to check what Windows has stored:

Dir ([Environment]::GetFolderPath("Recent"))

To get rid of that information, delete the folder content:

Del "$([Environment]::GetFolderPath("Recent"))\*.*" -whatif
