Whenever I open Indesign 2023, v18.1 the Home screen does not display the names and thumbnails of the recent files made.

What should I do to solve this issue?

I tried uninstalling and re-installing but I still encounter this problem.

I have set my recent file preferences like this.

I am having the same problem. InDesign suddenty decided to stop showing my recent items on the home screen. I've tried restarting. Can someone who actually works for Adobe please look into this issue and respond?

I had this problem and noticed that the check box in the save as window... 'Always Save Preview Images with Documents' was disabled. Enableing it should show the previews.

Hi @chris_1528,

Thank you for sharing your solution! It’s great to see community members helping each other out.

You’re absolutely right-enabling the "Always Save Preview Images with Documents" option in the Save As window can indeed resolve the issue of recent file thumbnails not showing up on the Home screen. This setting ensures that preview images are saved with the document, which helps InDesign display them properly.

I appreciate your contribution to solving this issue. If anyone else is experiencing similar problems, checking this setting might be the key.

Thanks again for your help!

Thank you,
Abhishek Rao
