Recent files list is old / wrong
When I open Illustrator the recent files list is 2+ months old.
Illustrator 24.1
macOS Catalina 10.15.4

Hi Ravi,
I'll look out for steps to reproduce and let you know if I spot a pattern here.
It's not to do with how they're sorted. Its that sometimes files I've previously had open simply don't appear. This always happens after Illustrator has crashed (not infrequently), but it also happens (not infrequently) after shutting down correctly. I've seen the issue multiple times accross multiple installs of multiple recent versions of Illustrator. -

Hi Mark,
Thanks for reaching out.
We are unable to reproduce the issue at our end.
So, would request you to try out click on the arrow icon next to recent to see if the files get sorted as per your desire.Waiting for your response.
Thanks,

I also get this on Windows 10.
I had it on 23.1 and now also on 25.0.1 -

When I open Illustrator, I look at the most recent files (especially after Illustrator keeps crashing my 2018 laptop - Power State Failure) and the most recent .ai files aren't there, but the files that I worked on weeks and weeks ago. I don't think Illustrator has ever shown my "most recent," and I have to constantly search for the file in the location on my computer.
