Today, suddenly my desktop version doesn't show anything in "Recent files" view when clicking the icon in the notification bar. Not very convenient, and I don't get why this has changed, unless it's a bug in this release.

 

(Running Win7 x64, )

I noticed this too a couple versions ago (also running Win7, x64), but then saw when clicking the icon that the default display had switched to "Notifications". Change it back to "Recent Files" by clicking that and it should be the new default whenever you click the icon in the future. In case that's it.

    Thanks for your reply. However, the tab Recent files is active (tried switching back and forth too) and it's empty. Now same at second computer too, Win10 x64.

    Definitely a bug in the latest update.

        After a restart of the computer I can see the files in the Recent tab, but it's static, and if you switch to Notifications and back, it's all gone.
