Directory of the Recent Files list?
Recently helping a customer trying to recover some files or locations of their files after being locked out of photoshop/adobe programs because they could not afford to continue to pay $500+. They had files spread all over and no idea where to begin to see where everything was. Searching isn’t guaranteed, and messy. So we have a solution for anyone not able to open photoshop, illustrator, or premier. We created a small app that opens the preferences files you choose, and it extracts the readable paths (normally that code in those files is not easily human readable and only partially readable with a hex viewer if you know what you’re doing)
That is just too many steps for the average user and we also needed a solution so here we have: recenthistorySleuth, Open any photoshop, illustrator or premier prefrences file and you will get the recent file list from each, clickable to open files, copy paths, and export full list.

Hope this helps people in the future, Glad we could take care of this customer and also develop this hopefully helpful tool in the process.
