Default Disable list of recently opened documents and folders

Hello!



I use Office 2016.

Recent documents I've worked with, and the folders they are stored in, is presented as a list when I for instance open a new document from Word or choose to Save As.

I don't want Office to remember and show files and folders in this way. Say for instance that I share a computer with others, or that I use my computer for two different areas of life, and I don't want Office to, as it were, visually merge the two.

In any case, is there a way to tell Office not to show lists of recently opened documents and recently used folders?

Thank you!
