Hello,
or Good evening, a quick question for anyone who can help me.... Thanks in advance;

I can't access the recent documents history with Office 2007 on Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.

In the advanced options:

Display: "Show this number of recent documents" is grayed out.

Comment F1: Your administrator has disabled this command via group policy.

I am the administrator and I haven't disabled anything.

    Start/run/type: regedit

    Expand the key:

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer \NoRecentDocsHistory (1)

    Right-click on NoRecentDocsHistory (1) and in the dialog box that appears set it to value 0

    It is no longer greyed out:
