Xcode doesn't show recent projects in recent projects list
XcodeXcode Problem Overview
Every time I start Xcode it gives me a window where my recent projects supposedly should be. It would come in handy but unfortunately it's always empty.
Does it have anything to do with the location where I store my projects? I hope not.
Thanks for any help!
Xcode Solutions
Solution 1 - Xcode
I would think it's because you could have your recent items set to 0 in System Preferences -> Appearance.
Update - If you are using Yosemite the correct path is System Preferences -> General -> Recent items (Thanks to @karim)
EDIT: Based on comments : Then Reboot
Solution 2 - Xcode
@Mellson answer is correct. But there is no menu in OS X Yosemite, System Preferences -> Appearance. It should be, System Preferences -> General -> Recent items. Set e.g. 5 items.
or in command line,
defaults write com.apple.Xcode NSRecentDocumentsLimit 5
However, to my experience the first one works more correctly.
Solution 3 - Xcode
Restart your mac.
Earlier, I faced the same issue after I did Xcode 7.3 update. It showed me empty (Clear) Xcode File -> Open Recents menu.
