Public Shared Sub AddToRecentCategory ( _

public static function AddToRecentCategory(
    itemPath : String
)

Parameters

• itemPath
  Type: System.String
  The path to add to the Jump List.

Remarks

The contents of the Recent category are managed by the Windows shell. To display recently used items in the Jump List, set the ShowRecentCategory property to true.

You can call the AddToRecentCategory(String) method to request that the Windows shell add an item path to the Recent items list. If your application is not registered to handle the file type of the item, it will not appear in the Recent list and calls to AddToRecentCategory(String) will fail silently.
