No such file on this system:
gene at coyote:~$ locate .desktop |grep "Document"
/home/gene/.kde/share/apps/RecentDocuments/linuxcnc_debug.txt.desktop
/home/gene/.kde/share/apps/RecentDocuments/linuxcnc_print.txt.desktop
/home/gene/.kde/share/apps/RecentDocuments/my-lathe.hal.desktop
/home/gene/.kde/share/apps/RecentDocuments/my-lathe.ini.desktop
/home/gene/.kde/share/apps/RecentDocuments/resolver.html.desktop
/home/gene/.kde/share/apps/RecentDocuments/scs.asp.desktop
/home/gene/.kde/share/apps/RecentDocuments/watch.desktop
