Auto remove broken links from history
Is there a way to automatically remove broken links from the history or do I can it only be done manually?

Hi Timur Born,
Thanks for the post. You can clear broken recent files by going to Edit> Preferences> Documents> Manage History and Recents...
From there, choose Clear... then select the All broken option.

Yes, that's the manual option. I meant if this is available automatically somewhere, like the "Clear History on Exit" checkmark, but only for broken links?

Hi Timur,
There's no auto-option for broken links, but we can certainly add a request.

Yes please!
I d/l everything to one folder then, after reading/editing, move them to the correct place. My list is almost all dead links, so auto-clearing would be very handy.

Re: Auto remove broken links from history
Hi all!
Please, just want to know how this feature request is going. Is the Tracker Team still willing to implement this?
If possible, I'd like to heave an option to check so, when xchange closes, the broken links from history (if there is any) would be removed, please!
Maybe it could be added here?
I see that this was already discussed here too: https://forum.pdf-xchange.com/viewtopic.php?p=107554&hilit=history+clear#p107554
thank you for the support!

Hello igorlima,
I removed the duplicate post, and to answer your above question - it does not seem like a Feature Request was made for this, and it is still not implemented. Please use the method Patrick advised in the second post here, and I will bring this up for discussion on my next meeting with the dev team to check their opinion on adding this as an "on exit" option.
Kind regards,
Stefan

Re: Auto remove broken links from history
I also would like to see this feature of auto-removing broken links! Many PDFs are just temporary Outlook attachments, and they clutter up the list.

Hi n8wheel,
it turns out there is a ticket in the system for this, but it has never enjoys any real priority. I have raised the priority in the ticket, but that is only an indication that there is interest, ultimately when/if this is delivered will be at the Development Team Leader's discretion.
For reference, the ticket is RT#3852: FR: Option to remove dead/broken links from the Recents List, on exit

Re: Auto remove broken links from history
I mean, the button to clear this up manually already exists, so the function is already there. What we need is an option to make it run automatically on exit.

Hello, Timur Born
That is the purpose of the ticket Paul mentioned, to allow it to be done on application exit. I cannot say when this will be given time, but it has not been rejected as of yet.
