Recent Workbooks in Excel

How can you ensure a workbook remains on the Recent Workbooks list in Excel?

What action can you take to make sure a workbook stays on the list, even after opening multiple workbooks subsequently?

Answer:

To ensure a workbook remains on the Recent Workbooks list, you can 'pin' the workbook by clicking the pin icon next to it.

Excel's Recent Workbooks list, located in the Backstage View, displays all the workbooks that have been opened recently. If you want a specific workbook to always appear on this list, regardless of how many other workbooks you open afterward, you can 'pin' it.

By 'pinning' a workbook in Excel, you are essentially marking it as a favorite or priority workbook, ensuring easy access to it whenever you open Excel. To pin a workbook to the Recent Workbooks list, simply locate the desired workbook in the list and click on the pin icon next to it. This action will keep the workbook on the list even if you open other workbooks in the future.
