IntelliJ IDEA - Recently Edited Tabs

I'm new to the IntelliJ IDEA. Is there a way to open or find a recently edited and/or closed files? I seem to have accidently closed a tab in a large program and I am having trouble relocating it.

You can use View | Recently Changed Files (Ctrl+Shift+E).

View | Recent Files (Ctrl+E) will show the recently closed files.

There is also Reopen Closed File action, but it has no default shortcut, you can assign it in the IDE Keymap settings.

To navigate to a recently edited file

  1. On the main menu, choose View | Recently Changed Files or press Ctrl+Shift+E.
  2. From the Recently Edited Files pop-up window that opens select the desired file.
