Recents folder not showing pdf files

I am using MS Office 365 on a Macbook Pro with OS X


I use Word and Excel and save documents in separate folders on OneDrive.


I then want to access these documents ie. attach them to a outlook email message. When I go to the Recents folder in Finder the .docx or .xls files are there but not the PDf files. I then need to navigate to the separate folders to see and choose the pdf files.


Is this a bug on my side that can be fixed?

Hi StephenCPhotog!


It sounds like you're not seeing PDF files in the Recents folder, and we're happy to help. The Recents folder shows a list of files that you opened or changed, displaying them chronologically by the date they were last opened. If you're having trouble finding PDF files, the instructions here should help:
