Increase Recent Shown Docs in Word

Open Word 2010 and click File > Options from the Ribbon.

Click Advanced Tab, scroll down to the Display section and adjust the Option: Show this number of Recent Documents. On my system, I set it to 50.

Click OK a few times, and you should be golden.  Looking under the File, the Recent Tab should now show the last 50 documents you’ve saved.
