Just wanted to add my thanks for this solution, it has been driving me crazy.

I was having the same problem. This blog article provided the fix for me:

Extra drawings opening on Visio launch

This situation has come up frequently enough in the newsgroups that
the solution should be widely circulated:

When Visio crashes, it will often restart and recover the document you
were working on. This is generally quite helpful, but sometimes Visio
doesn't know when to stop. Sometimes Visio will continue to recover
that document and show it to you every time you launch Visio. This can
be frustrating, but there is a solution.

Close Visio. Then look in the folder "%userprofile%\Local
Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Visio" using Windows Explorer.
Some of the folders in the path are hidden, but you can usually paste
the path found between the quotation marks directly into the address
bar and press Enter. Now find the file autorecover.ini and delete it.
The recovered documents should stop reappearing when Visio is
launched.
