Clear recent opened applications showing on applications icon (dock)

Monterey 12.5

Macbook Pro

Stupid question.

The application's icon in the dock, bottom right of the screen, shows recently opened apps over the Applications icon

How do you clear it so that it just shows the Applications icon?

Thanks for any replies.

Do you know what?

I have been after that flippin version (the folder) of it for ages, but never thought to right-click the icon.

I used to have the folder option showing on my last operating system, but thought they had changed it to just the icon.

Thanks for that.
