"Recent Items" list vs Opening a folder for Recent Items


Hello all... I am not understanding how MS elected removed the list of recent files and replaced it with opening a folder to see the recent files. That is now a 2 step process because you have to close the folder. I used the "recent items" a lot and I miss it - I'm sure others do ass well.
The solutions offered here only are partial, they only add the link to the start menu / jump lists, but those still open an actual folder which then has to be closed. If you open multiple files, then you have to close multiple folders. Odd...
I'm not a programmer - but I'm thinking (hoping!) that someone around here may be knowledgeable enough to find a way to return the actual "Recent Items" list, without opening a folder.
I'm thinking I may not be alone on this one...
Thank you!!

 

Removing items from a lot of folders.

Hi, you might find this of interest:

I quite like the idea of using Windows search to list all items, then copy all found items to a new folder.

Windows 7 search returning more results than files in folder

I have a folder in Windows 7 (Professional, 64 bit). When I right click the folder on a network drive it says it has 424 files. (The folder supposedly contains Outlook calendar items saved as msg files.) Running one search returned over 4,000 items, some
which don't appear in the file list, but the location shows the same folder I am searching. When I remove files from the search result (cut and paste into a different folder). The number of the items in the folder doesn't change, but when I search the items
I removed no longer show up in search. When I cut and paste the folder to my desktop, the search only returns items in the folder. When I cut and paste the folder back to the network drive, search returns items not showing in the folder. What gives?

Thanks!!
