Unreal engine 5 automatically opens a project and don't let me choose the one I want to open

The unreal engine 5 automatically opens a project I was working on recently and doesn’t give me the option to open others since it opens it on startup. After searching on google I noticed that this problem is recurrent due to an option in the editor “Open the most recently project at startup”. I didn’t check this box, but I still looked for it to uncheck it, but I noticed it was removed. So I am stuck without being able to open other projects.
