Maybe someone here (Brink?) can help you get that context menu option
back.

In the mean time, if you right-click on "Recent Items", and then selct
Explore or Open, it will open a Windows Explorer window that show all
the shortcuts that appear in that list. From there, you can click
Organize->Select All and then Organize->Delete to clear the Recent Items
list.
