All recent files disappeared
-
Normally, when NP is opened, all the recent files display their tabs at the top of the np panel. Yesterday when I ran up np, all the tags had disappeared and the recent file list displayed very old files.
I re-opened the files I needed.
Today, they are all gone again. Why is NP forgetting the files that are open?
