If any of you looking at this is doing it in .NET, find this: (for me it is in application.js

For a fairly recent version, there is a function

    // Load existing files:
$.getJSON($('#fileupload form').prop('action'), function(files) {

files = somethingelse;

    var fu = $('#fileupload').data('fileupload');
    fu._adjustMaxNumberOfFiles(-files.length);
    fu._renderDownload(files)
        .appendTo($('#fileupload .files'))

        .fadeIn(function() {
            // Fix for IE7 and lower:
            $(this).show();
        });
});

Inside the application.js I'm doing it for .NET though, and actually needed this gone.

Then set your somethingelse to either your files or "" depending on what you want to show. If you remove the line files = somethingelse then it will preload all files from the folder.
