Windows 10: Jumplists not working

Hi, most of the jumplists of my pinned programs are not working:

This started to happen yesterday and the only "important thing" I've done from yesterday to this day is installing NordVPN

Jumplist problem

When I right-click on a pinned item on a taskbar Jumplist and the file is unavailable the item cannot be "Unpinned from the list", nor can the item be deleted from the jumplist. I first noticed this when the February update that borked my USB mouse. A
lot of the items in the jumplist did not come up on the screen when I clicked on them but when I found the file and clicked on the file in it's containing folder opening the file up then clicking on the jumplist entry of the file would work again. It seems
that I must have deleted the files in the folder but the jumplst entry of the file is borked and the file cannot be removed from the jumplist, but if the file does exist in a folder, opening it up in the folder fixes the jumplist entry so it will work again.

Any ideas?

 

Jumplists are not working correctly.

Hi

My jumplists are not working correctly. When I right click any program and file explorer nothing happens, no jumpslist appears.

They worked fine in win7, but after I've upgraded to win10 they are not working. If I try to restart my computer they work again, so sometimes they work other times they don't.

It is very anoying!

Does anyone of you know what I can do, to solve this problem?

(Jumplists are turned on under the settings)

 

Accessing the entries in a jumplist with the keyboard

Please read the question carefully.

Lwrnc asked about a method using the keyboard to quickly and precisely access jumplist items.

It has nothing to do with the contents of the jumplist.

In Windows7 I press Win+Alt+2 to display the jumplist of the task bar item #2 counted from the Start button. It works for all items from #1 to #0 (the 10th item).

As far as I observed this very practical approach has been removed in Windows 10.

I strongly suggest to restore it!

Thanks.
