Deleting files on C drive

There are files I have deleted permanently. When I open my GOM Player, I go
to a pull down menu which I click on "open files". I get a pop up which I
then choose "video files". This then shows me a list of all the vid clips
I've downloaded and already deleted and I can't remove them even when I right
click and delete. They are removed from the choice box but they remain on
the drop down list. I want that list of vids clips I downloaded completely
off my C drive and I can't seem to do it!! HELP.

RE: Deleting files on C drive

Have you rebooted since you deleted the files?

Re: Deleting files on C drive

Does GOM Player, in it's Options\Preferences\Tools have the ability to turn
off its MRU (most recently used) files list?

RE: Deleting files on C drive

Tried it...list of files is still there, but of course, the files cannot be
found. Any other suggestions?

Re: Deleting files on C drive

Thanks for trying, but that was not an option. Any other suggestions?

Re: Deleting files on C drive

I don't know anything about Gom Player, but does any of this help?

http://www.gomplayer.com/forum/viewt...4a23ef7701663c

You may want to post to their Discusion Board, and ask there to find out
what others who use GOM Player may know about this.

Re: Deleting files on C drive

Yes. Go to the web site of the program involved and ask "their" experts.
They know their program best. They may even have a dedicated help group such
as the one you posted to here.
