Since your question is about Adobe Animate, I have moved it from the Acrobat Reader forum where you posted.

How to clear recent files on home screen with Adobe Animate 2022?

Translate

Legend

When Animate is closed, go to:

Win: C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Animate\YourVersion\
Mac: HD\Users\YourUserName\Library\Preferences\Adobe\Animate\YourVersion\

There find a file, called AppPrefs.xml

Open it in a plain text editor and you will see a list of the recent files in <ustring> tags

Like this: <ustring>your file.fla</ustring>

Delete them all and save the file.

Open Animate. The recent files list will be empty.
