You can keep it empty. The answer was on your computer all the time..
Start button --> Help and Support --> Search for:
Recent Documents
It should come up with this link:
Show your most recently used documents on the Start menu
Which reads like this:
----------
To show your most recently used documents on the Start menu
1.. Right-click the Start button, and then click Properties.
2.. On the Start Menu tab, click Start menu, and then click Customize.
3.. On the Advanced tab, select the List my most recently opened documents
check box.
The next time you click Start, the My Recent Documents folder is on the
Start menu. This folder contains the documents and files you opened
recently.
* Note
a.. On the Advanced tab, click Clear List to empty the My Recent Documents
folder. This does not delete the documents from the computer.
----------
So if you take from that and work backwards... Step 3 would be "Uncheck the
List my most recently opened documents check box."
Assuming that is what you meant to do, of course.
