  3. Restore taskbar items and preferences after update

    Hello Kevin,

    Pinned items on the taskbar are stored in your user account folder. If you want to recover your personal configuration prior to the update, we'll need to restore back your PC to the previous version of Windows 10 by performing a
    system restore. For the steps on how to perform a
    system restore, kindly refer to this support article.

    The folder is hidden so we need to enable the option to show hidden files and folders. For the steps on how to perform this task, please refer to this

    page
    . Once done, kindly follow these steps:

    • Select the Start

      button.
    • Type File Explorer and then press Enter.
    • Navigate to the path below.
      • For taskbar items - C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\TaskBar
      • For start menu items - C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\StartMenu
      • <username> would be your actual user account.
    • Back up the contents of the folders to an external storage device or to
      OneDrive
      .
    • Update your PC again to the latest version.
    • Restore back the items by copying and pasting it into the same folders.

    Let us know if you have other questions.

    API for adding item in Taskbar TooBar?

    Taskbar toolbar "Desktop" opens behind Taskbar

    Hello,

    Please supply a workaround and/or a bug-acknowledgement for the following behaviour?

    Setup - Windows 10. Taskbar "left" position. Taskbar-toolbar "Desktop" added to the Taskbar.

    Issue - When the "Desktop" toolbar-item on the Taskbar is selected, the Desktop list appears behind the Taskbar, such that it is partly masked. Menu is unusable. Then later e.g. when Windows Explorer has done something else, the issue has gone away; after
    a Restart the issue repeats.

    Screen-clip attached. Screen-clip shows that the "double down arrow" of the taskbar's Desktop item has been selected. It also shows that the desktop listing is displayed behind the taskbar.

    Thank you and regards.
