By default, there is no limit set for displaying the total number of items in the Recent Documents list. However if you want then you can set the limit in order to avoid displaying longer lists. Here is a small tip that will help you to determine the maximum number of items that can be listed in Recent Documents on Windows Server 2008.
- Go to "Start", "Run" and type "regedit".
- Registry Editor will open up. Look for "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer"
- Here create a new registry entry by right clicking on the empty area and selecting "New"
- Give it a name such as "MaxRecentDocs" and give it a "DWORD" value of 1.
