How to erase the Recently Played Games list?

I'm having trouble knowing what to do here. I wish to erase the Recently Played Games list and I searched all over the menus.

By the way, I've read other threads with the same problem and still did not adequately answer what I wanted - which was to cleanly erase it without messing with the darned registry.

I did NOT get an FAQ with the copy of snes9X (sorry if spelled incorrectly) :shock:

I'm guessing you are using the windows port:

Open snes9x.conf with your favorite text editor, look for [Settings\Win\Files] and delete all lines starting with Rom:RecentGame.

Thanks so much - that helped a lot! :D

I'm guessing the other snes9x users would have liked to know that too. Piece of cake!

I say we need to add it to the Options menu somewhere.
