Hi everyone!
This is my first world problem: I'm so glad I moved to Xubuntu for the past few weeks - I have optimized everything and learned a lot in the process. But there's something I just can't get used to: in Windows, right-clicking on the task bar Explorer icon will give you a list of the last folders you were active in. This is so useful! Helps not have 15 tabs open while you're working on a bunch of stuff.
So I spent the day looking for a way to get these folders up and ready to open. And it's no easy task for a newbie like myself. No dock app or file manager offers this option which I find hard to believe!
Two things I discovered: what I'm looking for is EXACTLY what is displayed when you go there in Xubuntu: desktop right-click > desktop settings > folder > other... > RECENTLY USED...! That's the one. I would love to be able to display this list of folders very quickly.
The second thing I discovered was the file /home/USER/.local/share/recently-used.xbel which I assume the aformentioned "recently used" folder gets its data from.
If someone could help me find a way to do this, I would be eternally grateful. Thanks for reading, and stay safe out there.
