🐞 Open Recent menu is always empty

[austincondiff]

Description

The open recent menu does not ever contain any items. This menu should include items shown in the Welcome Window recents list.

Edit: It seems like after opening aa file or folder, it will add it to this menu. Upon closing and reopening it takes a while to repopulate this recents menu with the items opened in the last session. Sometimes it clears this menu altogether somewhere between sessions.

To Reproduce

1. Open CodeEdit
2. Open the File menu
3. Hover over Open Recent
4. Notice no items are in the menu

Expected Behavior

Items should be in the open recent menu

I'm new to this project. I can't seem to replicate the issue.

Like I said in my edit in the description above, when quitting and reopening CodeEdit, it seems like sometimes it clears this menu.
