Created attachment 146084 [details] See [Issue 2] in the Description. Overview: There are several issues with the "Recent Projects" list on the "Start Page" tab displayed when NetBeans is loaded. Description: Issue 1 relates to a fresh install of NetBeans 201403170001 on a virgin a Win 7 machine. (Machine A) Issues 2, 3, and 4 relate to an upgrade NetBeans 201403170001 on a Win 7 machine. Both installations of NetBeans installed everything, including C++. (Machine A) [Issue 1] On machine A, on the "Recent Projects" list on the Start Page tab was empty. Thirteen trivial C++ projects based on the sample C++ Welcome project were added, and two trivial "Java Application" projects were added. One of the Java projects and one of the C++ projects were run to test the installation, and they both ran OK. NetBeans was then restarted, but no projects were displayed in the "Recent Projects" list. [Issue 2] On Machine B all of the projects on the "Recent Projects" list were missing from the Projects pane. See the attached screen shot Issue2.png which shows (for example): - Projects Welcome3 and Welcome4 are on the "Recent Projects" list. - Projects Welcome3 and Welcome4 exist, and are in the "Open Projects" window. - Projects Welcome3 and Welcome4 are missing from the Projects pane. After clicking the Welcome3 entry in the Recent Projects list it was opened, and added to the Projects pane. [Issue 3] On Machine B the list of eight projects on the "Recent Projects" list were not the most recently created projects. The creation dates of all projects are listed at the end of this description. [Issue 4] On Machine B some existing projects that were not on the recent file list were also missing from the Projects pane. (e.g. Welcome1 and Welcome 2). Opening Welcome1 using the menu option Files=>Open Project... opened the project and added it to the Projects pane. Issues 2, 3 and 4 may be tricky to reproduce, but issue 1 is presumably reproducible in a clean environment. Further information available as required. ===================================================================== Here are the details of all projects, with their creation timestamps: Volume in drive C is OSDisk Volume Serial Number is 48B1-E638 Directory of C:\Users\JohnDoe\Documents\NetBeansProjects 01/28/2014 12:02 PM <DIR> JavaApplication1 01/28/2014 12:04 PM <DIR> BackboneHelloWorld 01/28/2014 12:12 PM <DIR> HTML5Application 03/06/2014 03:21 PM <DIR> AnagramGame 03/07/2014 10:45 PM <DIR> SimpleHttpClient 03/08/2014 02:43 AM <DIR> RunnableTest 03/09/2014 01:17 AM <DIR> UrlConnectionClient 03/11/2014 12:24 PM <DIR> ForkJoinTest6 03/11/2014 12:44 PM <DIR> WebAppTest1 03/12/2014 11:26 AM <DIR> Welcome_1 03/12/2014 11:27 AM <DIR> Welcome_2 03/12/2014 01:01 PM <DIR> Welcome_3 03/13/2014 11:26 PM <DIR> Welcome_4 03/13/2014 11:54 PM <DIR> Welcome_5 03/14/2014 01:22 AM <DIR> Welcome_6 03/14/2014 01:26 AM <DIR> Welcome_7 03/14/2014 01:41 AM <DIR> Welcome_8 03/14/2014 11:36 AM <DIR> Welcome_9 03/14/2014 11:38 AM <DIR> Welcome_10 03/14/2014 12:21 PM <DIR> Welcome_11 03/14/2014 12:44 PM <DIR> Welcome_A 03/14/2014 01:13 PM <DIR> Welcome_B 03/14/2014 01:21 PM <DIR> Welcome_C 03/14/2014 01:53 PM <DIR> Welcome_D 03/14/2014 04:42 PM <DIR> Welcome_E 03/14/2014 04:49 PM <DIR> Welcome_F 03/14/2014 04:56 PM <DIR> Welcome_G 03/16/2014 01:09 AM <DIR> JavaApplication5 03/16/2014 01:09 AM <DIR> JavaApplication6 03/16/2014 01:10 AM <DIR> JavaApplication7 03/16/2014 01:10 AM <DIR> JavaApplication8 03/16/2014 01:10 AM <DIR> JavaApplication9 03/16/2014 01:10 AM <DIR> JavaApplication10 03/16/2014 01:10 AM <DIR> JavaApplication11 03/16/2014 01:10 AM <DIR> JavaApplication12 03/16/2014 01:11 AM <DIR> JavaApplication13 03/16/2014 01:11 AM <DIR> JavaApplicationA 03/16/2014 01:11 AM <DIR> JavaApplicationB 03/17/2014 04:16 PM <DIR> Welcome_H 03/17/2014 04:42 PM <DIR> .. 03/17/2014 04:42 PM <DIR> . 03/17/2014 04:42 PM <DIR> JavaApplicationC 0 File(s) 0 bytes 42 Dir(s) 874,139,992,064 bytes free
