TroubleShooting: Recent documents in office disabled by administrator

Unlock Recent Items

In this case, recent items refer to the multiple features in Windows that track recently opened documents, application usage, and more.

By default, Atlas disables recent items using policies, meaning you can't change the settings. However, by running Unlock Recent Items.cmd, you can unlock recent item settings and re-enable whichever you'd like.
