Summary0001917: Increase amount of recent files
Description

Inspired by discussion about the new startup assistant, I noticed that recent files still have a maximum of 10, while the amount of templates and example modules can easily go above that. I do recognize that this is likely because of templates and example modules being read from a single folder, while recent files need to have their paths saved as they can be in many different locations, but I would argue that recent files are the most used/useful of the three and currently feel quite limited in comparison.

I'm not sure what would be a reasonable maximum, because a higher amount of recent files would likely require an additional sub-menu in the File menu (similar to the Load Template sub-menu), but it would be nice if it could at least be doubled to 20.

TagsNo tags attached.

You can increase the amount of MRU entries up to 15 through the "MRUListLength" hidden setting.

15 is the maximum MFC supports without replacing even more MFC code.
