Not sure if this is the right section...move if it's in the wrong one...

Anyways, here's my issue..

Before I installed Office 2013 yesterday I had a long-time issue where the recent documents would not show up in the task bar or start menu for Excel and Word. By task bar I mean the little pop up you get when you click on an Office application and drag up.

I thought installing Office 2013 would fix the issue, as it'll be brand new software, but the recent documents STILL won't appear. What's even more annoying is how it works for Powerpoint but not the other two, Word and Excel

I've tried to follow this solution, but that didn't work...

Any other suggestions on how to fix this issue?

I don't use office so I'm not sure, have you tried doing a repair install? :?

Nope, it was a brand new install, so I didn't think a repair install would work anyways...I'll give it a try though :/

Hmm try this

Would that work with Windows 7? I forgot to mention I have Windows 7, not 8

I don't know, to be honest. I found that on google..

It should work fine in Windows 7, as all it does is edit the registry. And if you have Office 2013, whatever version of Windows you're running it on, the keys should be in there cooll;
