Can the length of the recent imports list be lengthened and shortened
If I want to increase the recent imports list from ten to twenty or thirty can this be easily done?

Do not trust me on anything I write here because I never import in C1 and have no experience in tweaking that part of the config.
There should be a "user.config" xml file that you may examine and possibly edit to test. Search for file "user.config" on your system disk. My user.config is in folder
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\CaptureOne.exe_StrongName_....\versioncode. The dots indicate a code that appears to differ between installations, the number of versioncode subfolders will depend on how many updates/upgrades you have installed, pick the folder relevant for your current C1 version (likely the highest version code).A quick search for import in my own user.config leads to two possibly relevant xml elements:
<setting name="ImageImporterSettingsForCatalogs" serializeAs="Xml"> and
<setting name="ImageImporterSettingsForSessions" serializeAs="Xml">.Those <setting> elements have sub elements that may or may not be relevant for you:
<RecentlyUsedFromFolders>, <RecentlyUsedToFolders> and <RecentlyUsedBackupFolders>. They all have <MaxSize>10</MaxSize> elements.You are on your own from here, but do make a (backup) copy of your user.config file before you change anything, you may need to roll back.

The User Guide specifically states that the last 10 Recent Imports are displayed.
I note that this thread has been started in one of the legacy areas of the forum. I do not recall the exact point of change but the move of the userconfig file to the folder OddS mentions was quite a recent change. Maybe at some point in V12 or with V20. It may not be the same for V11 for example.
As for Mac's - I have no idea.
There is a good chance that any updates could revert the setting to the default 10.
John, do you have a particular Use Case that might be worth proposing to the C1 development team as a possible enhancement?

OddS and SFA:
Thank you for your comments. I'll take a look at the config file. I've been using Capture One for the last four years I think, but I've never done an in-depth study of the features and now have to make some changes to my work flow. I think I have about 2T of photo files and will need to use the file system instead of the recent imports to navigate. But since I wasn't sure if there was an easier way around my problem I figured I'd throw it out there for more experienced users to comment.
