VLC remembers played files on Win7

Postby sp1ke » 04 Jul 2010 01:43

Well I'ts not a problem really but vlc remembers played files on win 7 if you right click on it on the taskbar all the recently played files appear, the same thing is in the menu too. Now how can I turn this off, is it vlc or windows? Its because of privacy problems since its a public computer I want to erase tracks...

You can disable VLC's remember feature from Tools -> Preferences (Show Settings: All) Interface -> Main interface -> Qt and Remember...
