Deleted .pbix workbooks are still seen in the recently used file list. Unfortunately there is no possibility to remove it directly from that list to have a better overview.

Especially "experimental" analysis I often start with a working title. But when I publish it to my collueges I want to use a more userfriendly name. And when I rename the document the older name still stays under recent.

So for me it would be helpful to have an option like in the office suite to remove such files.

Also, perhaps the lit of 9 file can be extended.

I agree with spuder ... It be very helpful to be able to remove 'recently used' from the file list.

RE: remove option for recently used files

Yes! As I was starting my introduction to PowerBI I shared early and incomplete Dashboards and Reports with my CEO. I've since deleted these first attempts, but they continue to show up on my CEO's Recent Items list. It causes confusion and doesn't make PowerBI look very good.
