Updated to Windows 10 1803 (April Update) and I noticed a little button appearing near the search box in the task bar. Turns out to be a new feature called Timeline. I open it and it shows some excel files I had opened some weeks before.
That's very coo... HOW THE FUCK DOES IT KNOW WHAT I DID BEFORE I EVEN UPDATED WINDOWS???
Richard Stallman is right..

    you can just deactivate that or have an offline account to begin with, also you can actually turn of the nagging info at the bottom somehow, though I don't remember how I did it

    Not a new thing either. Old windows saves recent files by default. I bet it is just pulling from there to add stuff in the 1803 update timeline.
