On Windows, two possibilities to open a PGN file are:

- Right-clicking on the file and choosing Open with... ChessX
- Within ChessX, by File -> Open and then browsing C:

In the two cases, the file will appear lately in File -> Open recent, respectively:
C:\Users\Joe\file.pgn
C:/Users/Joe/file.pgn
...and since the two paths are equivalent but not identical, both are retained among the list of recent files, making the list confusing and repetitive.
