How can I remove projects from the list of Recent Projects on Welcome to Pycharm dialog?

When I start up PyCharm, it displays the list of recent projects. How can I remove a project from that list?

Solution

  • In Linux: 1. Close PyCharm

    1. Edit this file:

      ~/.PyCharm2017.2/config/options/recentProjectDirectories.xml

    2. The recent file list looks like this:

      <component name="RecentDirectoryProjectsManager"> <option name="recentPaths"> <list> <option value="$USER_HOME$/PycharmProjects/INTEG-1475" /> <option value="$USER_HOME$/PycharmProjects/INTEG-6666" /> <option value="$USER_HOME$/PycharmProjects/integ" /> <option value="$USER_HOME$/PycharmProjects/scripts" /> <option value="$USER_HOME$/dev/core-system" /> <option value="$USER_HOME$/PycharmProjects/get-logs" /> </list>

    3. Remove unwanted directories from the list

    4. Save the file

    5. Start PyCharm
