Проблема с дессерелизацией LinkedList<File>

public LinkedList<File> getRecentFiles(){
    String val = prefs.get(RECENT_FILES,"");
    LinkedList<File> list = new LinkedList<>(new Gson().fromJson(val, new 
    TypeToken<List<File>>(){}.getType()));
    System.out.println(val);
    for(File f: list){
        System.out.println(f.getAbsolutePath());
    }
    return list;
}

Этот код возвращает:

>[{"path":"D:\\Pawn\\examples\\comment.p"},{"path":"D:\\Pawn\\examples\\queue.p"},{"path":"D:\\Pawn\\examples\\fib.p"},{"path":"D:\\Pawn\\examples\\hello2.p"},{"path":"D:\\Pawn\\examples\\faculty.p"},{"path":"D:\\Pawn\\examples\\quine.p"},{"path":"D:\\Pawn\\examples\\hello.p"},{"path":"D:\\Pawn\\examples\\gcd.p"}]

Как убрать приставку "D:\JavaWorkSpace\PawnDebugger\IDE\"?
