By default, clicking on the Search Box will display the last 5 files/content that were most recently accessed by you followed by an Advanced Search option at the bottom

This is helpful in quickly reviewing the last accessed files/programs without having to type the content name again in the search box.

Open the content from the instant search list

As you type the name of the file, program or content you’re looking for, the instant search will pull the list of the content within the Search Box that matches the entered keywords.

Once you find the content showing up in the result list, you can just click on the relevant content and access it.
