OS X: Opening Recent Files in the Finder. By Melissa Holt. Jan 25th, 2013 8:30 AM EST. In lots of places around your Mac, holding down the Command key while you're clicking on an item will give. Select the file format from the 'Always save as' drop-down list that you want to use as the default for saving new files in LibreOffice. For example, if you want to always save your new documents in the most recent Microsoft Word format, select 'Microsoft Word 2007-2013 XML'.

Every so often – usually around the time of a major new macOS release – I perform a clean install of the OS on my Macs. Along with restoring user data I tend to restore the configuration data of certain applications including the Microsoft Office applications. While this is a great timesaver, it can also cause some unexpected results. For example, the Recent file lists in Excel, PowerPoint and Word. Let's use Word as an example.

Opening a freshly installed copy of Word, I'm greeted with the Recent file list showing all the files I opened prior to performing a clean macOS install.

This is not as useful as it first seems. If I try to open one of these files I get a message saying that Word is unable to open that file even though I know it has been restored to the exact same location on my Mac's drive. I assume this is because each entry is now merely a broken reference or symbolic link to the original file.

I'm left with a completely useless Recent file list. No worries, I can select all the recent file entries with a couple of mouse clicks and delete them en masse, right? Wrong. I can only select each entry individually and control-clicking gives the following options:

Not wanting to have to remove each entry separately, I started digging around the file system and found the file com.microsoft.Word.securebookmarks.plist buried deep within the Word configuration data containing all the recently opened Word documents. The full path to the file is ~/Library/Containers/com.microsoft.Word/Data/Library/Preferences/.

Rather than delete this file, I first closed Word then renamed it as com.microsoft.Word.securebookmarks.old.plist from the command line: Chandramukhi tamil movie download hd.

This is certainly not a subtle approach. By renaming the configuration files, you'll lose all the Recent file entries along with the Pinned and Shared With Me file lists. To me, this is preferable to having a long list of files that can't be opened. It may also be useful if – for whatever reason – you want to start afresh with a new Recent file list.

NOTE: If you're navigating to these files through the Finder you may not be able to locate the directories com.microsoft.Excel, com.microsoft.Powerpoint and com.microsoft.Word in the ~/Library/Containers directory. They are there, but may be displayed as Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint and Microsoft Word respectively. This does not affect the Terminal commands shown above.

Which macOS version is the latest?

These are all Mac operating systems, starting with the most recent. When a major new macOS is released, it gets a new name, such as macOS Big Sur. As updates that change the macOS version number become available, this article is updated to show the latest version of that macOS.

If your Mac is using an earlier version of any Mac operating system, you should install the latest Apple software updates, which can include important security updates and updates for the apps that are installed by macOS, such as Safari, Books, Messages, Mail, Music, Calendar, and Photos.
