Turn Off Recent Files Feature
I don't like the recent files to be shown. Can I turn off the feature or at least clear the files so they don't show up?
Hi all,
Thanks for keeping sending your thoughts and thanks for summarizing it Alexis.
You have the ability to switch off recents from your https://www.dropbox.com/account page. That currently works for web only and not mobile.

Super User IIThe thread that you have posted the link to (which I had already read) is about how to clear the recent file list, not how to fix the undesirable behaviour.
That thread started out that way, but changing the behavior is also included in the discussion (and the primary topic of that thread as you read further). It's also the most active thread regarding this topic, so it makes more sense to send people there, where the topic is being discussed, rather then to an inactive topic or an unrelated one, like this one.
Therefore I disagree with your statement "No one is ignoring the mobile apps" and correctly state that mobile apps are being ignored.
To all: As this thread (the one you're reading now) pertains to the website, and a solution has already been provided, there's no need for this topic to remain open. If you're coming here looking for help with the Recents tab on your mobile devices, please use the thread that is linked above (April 18th). Otherwise, please start a new thread relevant to the issue you're having. Thank you.
i have pictures of my bank cards. they are well hidden in folders with no distinctve names or extension. i know where they are, however with this change to show the recent folder, anyone can see the cards with coordinates. Any chance to disable it?
