WinVista FORGETS recently opened files - ANNOYANCE

Like so many problems, I didn't have this annoyance in WinXP but I do in
WinVista. It forgets recently opened text files for example, I have a daily
"note" file which gets registered in "Recendly Opened Docs" (click
Start-->Documents) for ONE sesssion, if I reboot or just work for many
hours/next day it's not there and I have to go search in WinExplorer for the
d*** file?

Please don't tell me to turn ON Taskbar options "store & display a list of
recently open files/prgrams" - those options are both on, also I've been
doing computers for decades.
Something else is going on here, it's not my settings at fault.

P.S.
Plus, ironically Vista remembers a bunch of OLD files I opened ages ago and
still listed as "recently opened" but which I don't care about.
I am tired of looking up for files (in File System/WinExplorer) which I used
to open with TWO CLICKS in WinXP. Yes I can place them all in a
conveniently accessible folder, but do NOT want to, it's user's right to
keep files where user wants to, especially b/c duplicates/confusion would
arise & my system is loaded with a Million files.
I am an Engineer, got many files.
What's up with Vista having so many annoyances, WindowsXP didn't have? This
is on top of WinExplorer forgetting views/sorting and reverting to what
Microsoft likes (tags? date picture was taken for a PDF file? Are you
insane microsoft? why in WindowsXP you set it ONCE and it remembers, and no
stupid tags or date picture taken columns, those are fake anyway if your
camera clock is lying))

NO one could impersonate an a-hole that well. You are unique and
impossible to impersonate.

Of course you confused the thread. You IQ is the same as your age. 38.

Wipe your system clean then call GoodWill and donate your computer.

Go to Toys-R-Us and purchase an Etch-A-Sketch.

Problem Solved.
