System Information
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.19043-SP0 64 Bits
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.5.0 NVIDIA 497.29

Blender Version
Broken: version: 3.2.1, branch: master, commit date: 2022-07-05 15:44, hash: a2d59b2dac
Worked: (newest version of Blender that worked as expected) Blender 3.1.2

Short description of error
The Recent Files list on the splash screen is not updating with the most recent files. File - Open Recent is also not updating with most recent files. Recover Last Session doesopen last file.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

Open Blender 3.2.1.
Create a file, or open an existing file.
Make changes.
Ctrl-S or File - Save or File - Save As to save the file (can be the same file name or a different one)
Close Blender.
Reopen Blender -- splash screen does not update with most recent file, and File - Open Recent does not list the most recent file either.

All add-ons have been disabled, including Blender add-ons (Node Wrangler, Bool Tools, etc.).Apples_04.blend

This issue occurs whether starting with an existing file or creating a new file from scratch.

File can be as simple as a single Suzanne mesh or as complicated as an entire ArchVis scene -- same result. Tested with multiple different files in multiple locations to be sure the issue was not with any single .blend file or folder location.

Opening the same file(s) in the older Blender 3.1.2 results in the Recent Files list updating as expected.

Thanks for the report. I'm not able to replicate this. Could you check again with factory settings: {nav File > Defaults > load Factory Settings}

I'll give it a go, but it may be a few days before I have time to check it out.

Sorry, Pratik, I was unable to find the time to reset Blender back to factory settings just to test this out. I have a lot of custom settings set up -- which have always worked perfectly well before, in all previous versions of Blender back to 2.9 when I started using Blender -- and cannot reset everything just to figure out why Blender is no longer remembering recent files.

The behavior is somewhat random: several files I've worked on recently ARE in the Recent Files list. However, the file I worked on this morning is not. It is neither in the splash screen Recent Files nor in the File - Open Recent files list, as stated previously.

This issue still needs to be resolved. I will open a new report.
