Clearing Entries in the S&R MRU List

Billbyte · 08-06-2013, 06:53 PM

Is there a way to clear the Search and Replace MRU list of entries no longer required? Not those that are saved in the Clip file. Thanks

Clips and saved searches are different files (

and are transferable between installations)

The rest are stored in sigil.ini

Edit: Preferences (or F5)
Use the open configuration folder button at the bottom

Many Thanks to theducks. I don't think I would have ever found it. I also noticed that if you edit it from the preferences and save it no changes take effect. You must be out of Sigil to have the changes made.

That goes for almost any program.
You should not directly play with an INI file with the program is open.
You could lose any work in progress if it decided to update while you had it open elsewhere.
