Update Excel Files path from old folder to new folder inside Pinned and search results
Hi everyone! I have been trying to find a solution to this but pulling my hair out here : } I had all my pinned XLSX files in Excel in this folder: /Documents/Info/Old Folder I have moved all ...
Jackie0090 These MRU's are kept in your Registry, in several places. Start looking here:
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Excel\File MRU
Each pinned file in there starts with this text:
[F00000001]
All unpinned ones start with [F00000000]
You could edit those entries directly in the registry,
Note that there is also this branch that contains one or more MRU lists, depending on how many OneDrive and other on-line services you use:
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Excel\User MRU
Expand that branch to see one or more other File MRU lists.
FYI I am not logged in OneDrive or Excel for this, i just use it logged out
Jackie0090 If you are using Excel from a M365 subscription you are logged into an account. Check out the File, Account page.
- Got to the File MRU section, worked beautifully. exported the reg, edited, imported back, problem fixed for whoever wants to do the same in bulk. thx a bunch JK u rock!
