    Microsoft Office JumpList File Count not updating


    I rely heavily on jumplists, especially with Excel. I made the necessary registry edits that are well known to increase the number displayed files in the jumplist and everything was working great. Well my organization did a repair of Office on my computer, and now my jumplist count reset to 10 recent files on my pinned Office products Excel, PowerPoint, Word and will not increase. I tried deleting the registry edit and then reinserting it to no avail. It is displaying the increased number just fine with non-Office programs i.e. Adobe Reader, Explorer, etc... but I cannot get the number of displayed files in the jumplist to increase on my pinned Office products. Any clue what I can do here?

    :)

    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?

    I have added the file count column to my folder in File Explorer. However, the actual file count is not displaying.

    Hi Loren,

    I appreciate if you could answer a
    few questions to narrow down the issue and to provide you better assistance.

    • How did you added file count column for folders in File Explorer? What are the steps did you followed?
    • When you say, "actual file count is not displaying" is this issue specific to any folder or happening with all folders?
    • Have you installed any third party anti-virus on your system?
    Meanwhile, I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if this helps.

    • Open File Explorer.
    • Click on View from navigation pane and choose Detail pane.
    Write to us with the above information and status of the issue to assist you further.

    Thank You.

    Microsoft Office JumpList File Count not updating

    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.
