<FILE> "Open Recent". How to extend the limit from 50 to 100?

[typist at mac.com]

Thanks JMarc,

1. Using LyX Version 2.3.5-1 (2 June 2020), I see that the “Maximum last files” is 50. (Via Preferences -> Look @ Feel -> User Interface.)

2. Where do I find that "there is a hardcoded bound at 100”?

3. Can I access that limit?

4. PS: I do not see why a file needs to be opened to populate the list that I require??
