Hi mmm9, thanks for messaging the Community!

 

Currently, it isn't possible to remove files from the 'Recents' folder, however, there should be more information on this file.

 

Was it send via a shared link, or a file shared directly to your account?

 

This will help me to assist further!

      Were you signed into your account when you viewed the shared link? Did you add the file to your account?
