»Recent Showicons« incomplete

The history or most recent list seems not always to catch every visited directory. I browsed to F:\folder1\Folder2 (example), but only F:\Folder1 will be in the list.
Is this supposed to work like this? I´m not sure, but i thaught, that every browsed directory would be listed in a reversed manner.

Have you got "ignore filesystem folders that are only transited" turned on in the Recent List preferences?

It is turned on, but they should work on Windows system files only. The skipped folders are common non system dirs, so they shouldn´t be
skipped. Some visited dirs won´t get in the list, whatever folder i choose, under a certain level. Then again, i see items in the list more than 3 levels deep.

If that's on then folders won't be added to the recent list until you do something in them (other than go to another folder).

You might be confusing filesystem folders with system folders. Granted that I don't know why the word filesystem needs to be there, but all folders are filesystem folders (I think).

Virtual folders, like My Computer, aren't filesystem folders.

That´s what i thought. Maybe opening a document or starting an MP3 is enough already to count as »doing something«, because otherwise it
sould be pretty much the behaviour of the smart favourites.

Now i´ve turned that system thing off & every directory seems to be listed, thanks. This makes the transit of the visited folders faster, of course,
they will fall out of the list sooner. But we can make the list of entries longer. While i ignored the recent list for a long time i discovered it as
a nice function for recovering locations.
