如何在 Octave GUI 中删除过去的工作目录？

Question

Does anyone know how to delete those past working directories in Octave GUI? They are very annoying and useless.

Answer 1

I see from your image that you are on windows.

I don't know the equivalent directory on windows, but on linux, this information seems to be stored under ~/.config/octave/octave-gui.ini, in a section called current_directory_list which you can edit and clear of all unwanted entries.

See if you can find the equivalent folder where this octave-gui.ini file is stored on windows; it may be in an AppData/Local directory, or in the octave installation folder itself...

_{PS: In the same directory I also had a qt_settings file which seems to mirror some of this information, but I think this may have been from an older octave installation.}

Answer 2

In addition to deleting the file path from octave-gui.ini , try removing the path from .octaverc file as well. This will remove the warning you see at launch if the path no longer exists.
