Jax, here might be the fix. Those recent items are in a super-secret file that may be corrupted

The behavior that you are describing can happen if the Virtual file that holds the data for a pinned programs Jump List becomes corrupted.
1. Copy the following path.
%AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\AutomaticDestinations
Open Windows Explorer, click in the Address Bar and press the backspace key to clear the address bar.
Right click in the address bar and select Paste. Press the Enter Key. This will open the Automatic Destinations folder.
Note: This folder is Super Hidden and this is the only way that you can access that folder.
2. Locate the following file in that folder: adecfb853d77462a.automaticDestinations-ms
Right click that file and select Delete.
Exit all running programs and restart the computer.
