It is surprising that i am not able to clear the recent item list. If there is a quick way to do it, please let me know.

Thanks!

There is a C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Captivate 6 x64\utils\CleanPreferencesWin.bat

This clears everything nicely.

This was an excellent solution for completely clearing the Open Recent list (I am using Captivate 9). Thanks, aasdsda! One thing to note, though, is that after running this bat file, you have to restart Captivate before the list is cleared.

One further question: Is there a way to clear only selected items in the list (as opposed to the entire list)?

Kill your Preferences file.  That should do it.
