In my Documents and Settings/Owner folder, there’s a folder called Recent,
which contains several hundred .lnk files with names matching files in the My
Documents folder. They are identified as shortcuts, but I haven’t knowingly
created them, so why are they there and can I safely delete them? The icon
for the Recent folder is different than other folder icons in having a clock
on it, so it may indicate that its contents have time limits on them, but
some of the .lnk files are 3 years old, which may mean I have to manually
delete them to clean up unused files. Is that true?
