Carrying over Windows Taskbar Jump List information after PDF-XCE update

Post by rakunavi »

Hello all,

If PDF-XChange Editor is pinned to Windows taskbar, it is unpinned after an update and all information on the Jump List, such as pinned items and recent items, is lost. In other applications, Jump List information is generally not lost after an update, so I hope that the information will be carried over in PDF-XChange Editor as well, through an update program or other improvement.

Incidentally, you can manually restore the Jump List information for PDF-XChange Editor by backing up the following file before the update. After updating and pinning to taskbar, overwrite the file.

Hello, rakunavi

I am just awaiting a reply from the dev team to confirm this, but if my memory serves, I believe the issue here is that our installers do not actually have access to this area, and so it is not our choice if we would like to retain or remove these items. Once I have confirmation on that I will be back to let you know.

Kind regards,
