Some people deal with confidential files and use Dropbox for these. It would be very useful to allow people the option to clear their "Recent" files at will to allow more privacy and discretion.

Agree with all on this thread. This lack of security will be the biggest(but not the only) Dropbox "function" that causes me to store my files elsewhere and cancel this service. The right pane and it's crushing effect on file previews is the second largest issue, as it makes the preview function essentially unusable.

Dropbox, to remain youngsters among boring old fogeys please just implement this cool feature, really needed. No shortcomings, only expanding of our privacy. Privacy & reliability that is why we prefer Dropbox.

It's 2021, and there still isn't a way to clear the list of recent activity? It's a privacy concern and a nuisance. I see dozens of requests going back to 2015. Is there ANY progress on this? I'm not a developer, but this seems like it would be an easy button to add. Any help on this?

In addition to clearing recent files, I'd like to be able to clear the "cache" more easily as well. By creating a special entry in the settings of the app

And still no update on this? This is one of the main reasons why I use free version of Dropbox and have no intention to purchase a bigger plan. Absolute lack of control on my desktop app. If you cannot provide local security and fix those issues, how can I trust you to provide online security? That's why I use other (safer) apps instead of Dropbox for important files. Dropbox is used for irrelevant things which can be accessed by anyone.

I cancelled my pro plan some time ago. It's indeed inconvenient that you dont care. I'm not going to use paid dropbox whilst this or such is not implemented. But will remain subscribed on this.
