FAQ
Q1: Can the recent list be viewed across devices at most?
- Solution: The recent list displays records of recently operated documents. After signing in to your account and enabling cloud sync, the recent list can be synced across devices.
Q2: How to completely disable recent list records?
- Solution: File records in the recent list are automatically updated and cannot be completely disabled. It is recommended to hide the list or manually delete open records.
Q3: Documents in the recent list cannot be opened across devices?
- Solution: Sign in with the same WPS account and verify whether the document is a local file on the original device that has not yet been uploaded to the cloud. It must be uploaded to the cloud before it can be viewed across devices.
Notes
- Recent list records are bound to the WPS account and synced across devices
- The recent list only displays file access paths and does not occupy cloud space
- Hiding recent records only hides the open file records; it does not delete them
