Thank you for your bug report, that location got deprecated in gtk3, the
file is stored in .local/share/recently-used.xbel instead, vmware should
be using that file as well

Title:
~/.recently-used.xbel disappearing after login vmware player empty vm
list
Status in “gtk+3.0” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
After logging in in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (all updates installed to date),
an existing file ~/.recently-used.xbel disappears each time, which
makes it easy to reproduce.
vmware player 4.0.x uses this file (probably via gtk) to store its
list of recently opened VMs. Because this files gets deleted just
after logging in, the list of available VMs in vmware player will be
empty, and will have to be recreated.
I have been unable to find which process deletes this file, or why.
Apparently apparmor might have to do something with it (see apparmor
config file), but I don't think so, since changing its config file to
exclude this file doesn't resolve it.
In my opinion deleting this file is a bug, or at least an undocumented
feature where there should be an option to avoid the deletion.
