IntelliJ - Delete list of previously opened projects?

Question

Is there a way in IntelliJ IDEA to delete previously used projects? I am referring to a list on the main page when the application starts. Please look at the image.

Answer 1

In MAC, ~/Library/Preferences/IdeaIC14/options/recentProjects.xml is the file to easily edit the list when you do not want to lose everything. (It is for IdeaIC14).

Answer 2

File -> Open Recent -> Manage Projects .... CTRL-A then Delete to remove all, or hit the X to remove individual.
