Well I wouldn't do that, I've no idea what Quicktime might do with it

I would use a text editor in Windows that could be Notepad, in OS/X Text Edit, Linux - whatever you have. To get an idea of what you're looking for See this post https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...9&postcount=25

But to reiterate AnotherCat's major point - there's no real problem that needs to be remedied here. It's what's known as a Most Recently Used (MRU) list, as a general rule programs do not keep track of what's in such lists. In this instance the list in presented in a somewhat different context to where we normally see such lists, which is in the File Menu of a program as Recent Documents or Recent Files.

So go ahead and change the two plist files if you want to, but recognize that you're only tidying up, next time you add and remove a library it will be in that list.

Sorry if we've confused you - me culpa thrice over
