Provide a method to delete a shortcut to a recent file that is no longer current. The main LabVIEW window on the right-hand side below Open Existing has a list for All Recent Files, Recent Projects, Recent VIs, or Other Recent Files. The All Recent Files is default and perhaps most convenient. However, it always lists projects before files. Therefore, if we open numerous projects the recent files are pushed down and must be scrolled to, limiting convenience. It is common to open an example project, a new Untitled Project 1.lvproj, or one to help a coworker. These take up space which could show frequently-used files. These can be deleted from the LabVIEW.ini (e.g. RecentFiles.projectPathList, RecentFiles.pathList keys) but doing so it tedious and prone to allow accidental changes. A right-click pop-up menu could contain a Delete/Remove from List item; the Delete key cannot be used because there is no item selection since a single click opens the item.
