How to Clear Jump Lists Data in Windows 11

First of all, what do you mean by jump list data on your system? This is nothing more than data about any application that your system saves in a particular folder called AppData, which is then used to get the recently opened applications, recently closed tabs, etc. In short, this is to get the recently occurred events so that Windows users can undo their last task, like reopening closed tabs and all. If you are a Windows user whose job involves downloading / creating a lot of documents in a short time, this will bring together AppData (Jump lists) and also the list of recent items from the taskbar, which can be a tiring job to delete each and every one of the recent items in the list. Instead, you can immediately delete all data from jump lists in Windows 11. In this post, we will guide you on how to do that.

Step 1: Press Windows + R keys together on your keyboard to open To run Dialog box.
