Run an adware scan. Run a Crap Cleaner scan.
It only keeps history of 9 files. Make sure you go to File > Open and play the files from there because they won't show up in the history if you play them from the library.

CCleaner is brill for that kind of stuff. I think in Media Player, you can also go to Tools->Privacy and clear the file history.
