It's mentioned here that it is part of the save games :
According to https://switchbrew.org/wiki/Flash_Filesystem#System_Savegames, the save game for title ID 0x80000000000000F0 (pdm:/) holds the "Play Data log", and 0x8000000000000041 holds "Home menu icondata/lru list for recently played games." Together these make up the play activity and allow the switch to display icons for each of the titles. This could be backed up and restored easily, but they're tied to a user account, so would need to be modified to the current user account.

Maybe with an app like CheckPoint you can easily backup that file to the SD card.
Else you would have to make a backup for the NAND and mount that on a PC to extract / put back the file.
