This is a "registry" setting.

Depending on which version of Windows you are running, some versions of the Microsoft Utility TweakUI can be used to re-enable the Recent Documents option on the start menu.

Hi Yasmena

To show the documents folder in the Start menu:
Start the Registry Editor
Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \ Explorer\NoRecentDocsMenu
Double-click it and change the value to 0
Exit RegEdit and restart Windows

2- Download TweakUI

Backup your registry first.
Editing and modifying the registry could result into a serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system.

Remember to be extremely careful when you edit the Registry, because Registry errors can render a system unbootable. Be sure to have a current Emergency Repair Disk (ERD) before you make any of the modifications.
