Unless I remember to delete the recent files I have been using they appear again when next logged on.
There is no security with this and I wish to prevent it happening.
Is there any way to stop it ?

Hello,
- go to
Tools -> Options -> LibreOffice -> Advanced -> Button: Open Expert Configuration - Search for:
PickListSize - Set value to
0(Double click the entry to change the value)
This will prevent LibreOffice to add any entry into the list of documents recently used.
Tested using LibreOffice: (works with 6.2 as well)
Version: 7.0.1.2; Build ID: 7cbcfc562f6eb6708b5ff7d7397325de9e764452
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.3; UI render: default; VCL: kf5
Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US; Calc: threaded
Hope that helps.

The boxes disappear to leave you back at Libre Office. This has worked for me on 06-10-2020.
