Default Recent Documents List

An issue with the Recent Documents list has recently surfaced that no one seems to be addressing. In WORD and other Office Apps, in Options you can set how many recent documents you want to display. I have mine set to 3, and up until just a few weeks ago, it worked fine. I never saw more than the three most recent documents I had accessed displayed. Now, it just keeps adding every single document I open, even if I don't change anything in the document, to the Recent Documents list, and it just keeps getting longer and longer, filled up with every document I've opened. Yes, I can clear them by going into Options and set the number to 0, then coming back and resetting it to my desired 3, but once again they start accumulating. This is not how this is supposed to work, and it never did before. And I don't know how to make it stop. Has anyone else experienced this issue, and is there a solution for it? Thank you.
