Hello, asking here because I am stumped. Revit Architecture 2013

I want to manage the pinned recent files for my team. While education on how to use these pins is great for the team. I want to set the top 5 to be certain files. 

I do not know how to control the pin setting. I would assume it was in the USER Revit.INI file, but it is not. It must be an application setting somewhere and I have combed through the registry settings as well with no luck.

Has anyone came across these settings before? Where does revit remember that these items are pinned?

Thank-you,

I don't see any way to do what you want.  This is under control of the user and is updated continually.

Apparently these settings are stored in the UIstate.dat file %appdata%\Autodesk\Revit\Autodesk Revit 2013

Does anyone know how to edit these settings or view this .dat file which will allow me to determine if I should set 1 and then xCopy it for my users?

Thanks!
