Description

### Description

Before version 3.8.0.0, I could clear the recent files list on the home screen by right-clicking an item on the list and selecting 'Clear all items'. This no longer works; nothing happens if I press the button. Closing and reopening Files also doesn't do anything to clear the list.

### Steps To Reproduce

1. Open Files.
2. Right-click an item in the recent files list.
3. Choose 'clear all items'.

### Files Version

3.8.0.0

### Windows Version

10.0.19045.5247
