Update 09.04.2020:
With the release of Visual Studio Code 1.44.0 you can easily remove a file using the UI. You see a closing x next to a file in this recently opened files view:
I could be mistaken but you don't want to delete, but "clear" recently opened files. If that is the case, then follow these steps in regards to VS Code version 1.15.0:
- Press Ctrl + Shift + P
- Then, within the Quick Open bar, type in
>Clear Recently Opened - Press Enter, restart Visual Studio Code, and you should now see nothing under Recent.
