Is it usually a safe idea to delete most recently used objects?
Thank you

Personally I have run into problems after deleting these files on occasion, but perhaps one of the more experienced forum members can elaborate on this.

I don't have the options in front of me after you run a scanand it detects an MRU.
Perhaps it is a good idea to quarantine or some safe choice.
Also, I believe you can create a restore point so if you had trouble you could 'fix' the problem.
I hope one of the staff comments for the good of the both of us.
Thank you

Most Recently Used (MRU) items refer to the list of programs or documents which you have recently accessed. For some, this is a convenience as it allows you to quickly see and access the last few used files and documents. For others, they are considered to be 'bad' in terms of privacy.

MRU's are a user's choice preference ... some people want them detected and eliminated, others find them useful. IMO, "Most Recently Used" items are redundant and do not present a threat to my privacy, and I like the convenience that they represent.

This is the information we needed and thank you very much.
