[Win7] Jumplist Extender - Add jumplists to any program! (RELEASE 0.4)


Recommended Posts

@Angel Blue01: Thanks :) Technically, Extender can overwrite existing jumplists, but the target program can change it back at any time, so it won't work. E.g. If your program has a "recently used" section, it'll be changing the jumplist a lot so your custom one won't show. Haven't figured out how to stop that yet, but try and see!

@th3rEsa: Yeah, you can just put "mIRC" as the title, without quotes.

Jumplist Extender v0.2 is released! Upgrading is STRONGLY recommended, since this fixes some major bugs.

DOWNLOAD:

JumplistExtender_v0.2.exe (1.21MB)

GPLv3 Source: hg clone -b "Version0.2" http://mercurial.robotnik.ws/JumpList

CHANGELOG: (pretty much the same as above)

Version 0.2 is a BUG FIX release.

ADDED/CHANGED:

* Upgrade timelock removed. v0.1 is timelocked after May 31, whereas v0.2 is not timelocked at any date!

* Additional options for keyboard tasks: Ignore if program is not running, or if it is.

* UAC windows can now receive jumplists! (#49)

FIXED:

* Command line task creation will sometimes crash. (#41)

* When saving, taskbar icons will sometimes shift position (#37)

* UAC/administrative windows cannot accept jumplists or their tasks (#49)

* [Critical] "Access denied" when selecting a UAC/administrative main window. (#47)

* [Crit][T7EBg] "Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component." (#42)

* [Crit] "Cannot find central directory" when importing a broken jumplist pack (#45)

* [Crit] "The process cannot access the file 'AppSettings.xml' because it is being used by another process." when importing a jumplist pack and canceling (#46)

KNOWN ISSUES:

* Installer does not place correctly or delete shortcuts for regular, non-administrative users (#12)

* [Critical][T7EBg] "An item with the same key has already been added" (#51)

* [Crit][T7EBg] "The path is not of legal form." (#52)

http://code.google.com/p/jumplist-extender/issues

64-BIT USERS: If some of your jumplist tasks stopped working for built-in Windows applications (e.g. Calculator, Snipping Tool,) download this replacement script to fix the problem:

http://jumplist.gsdn-media.com/JLE_Common.ahk (Right click, "Save Target As")

Save it to "%appdata%\JumplistExtender\AHK\JLE_Common.ahk" , and that should fix the problem. I'm including this fix with a minor v0.2-B release, upcoming during the week...

BUG NOTE: Has anyone had a problem where your previously created jumplists won't be saved/refreshed if you tried to edit them? Such a problem is described here:

Now, I found a few glitches while testing the program. Creating a jumplist from scratch works fine, but editing it is a completely different story. Most of the times changes won’t be saved until you “reset” the list by disabling and enabling it again. Besides those bugs, however, it’s still a very useful app for all of us who miss jumplists everywhere!

But this is the very first time I've heard this bug, so I have trouble figuring out what's wrong. Please let me know if you've experienced this, too! If you don't have a Neowin account, send me mail! [email protected]

Jumplist Extender Version 0.2-B is released!

A couple bug fixes, but if you experienced some weirdness with your tasks (especially 64-bit users,) update with this release!

NOTE THAT v0.1 will expire on May 31st! If you're running v0.1, update to v0.2-B!

Download

Install: JumplistExtender_v0.2-B.exe (1.62MB)

GPLv3 Source:

hg clone -b "Version 0.2" http://mercurial.robotnik.ws/JumpList

Changelog

Version 0.2-B is a MINOR BUG FIX release.

ADDED/CHANGED:

* Programs dialog now shows all program folders, including pinned taskbar and start menu shortcuts!

* Weird task behaviors, regarding opening a new window and ignoring absent/currently open windows, are fixed. Also, UAC tasks are guaranteed to run!

* Updates are made more prominent, with a link on the main window as well as a balloon reminder.

FIXED:

Jumplist Extender v0.2-C is released!

This release fixes MSI shortcut handling, so any program that uses MSI (e.g. Microsoft Office) returns the correct EXE file. Check the official website for a changelog.

Download: JumplistExtender_v0.2-C.exe

Great to see this project active. Just installed v0.2C.

When I try to import the Firefox.jlp from the website, I get the following error:

jlerror1-1.png

(the German part of the sentence says A part of the path [pixelated username] could not be found.)

Something wrong on my end?

Thanks for your input! That's a weird bug, and I don't experience it... can you check to see if there's an "Imported" folder in the icons? Follow these steps:

1. Go to "%appdata%\JumplistExtender\Icons" in Windows Explorer

2. If there is no folder that is named "Imported" (in English,) create that folder.

3. Try importing the pack again

Let me know!

Sorry for the double post, ran out of time to edit my previous post.

Anyway, here's something that might help. You surely have noticed the differences between the Firefox icon Windows naturally uses in the Firefox jumplist and the one Jumplist Extender displays when you point it to the official icon. I've extracted the icon so now they look the the same. Compare original with tweaked. Maybe it helps :) . Here's the icon, feel free to use it since it's inside the original Firefox.exe:

Sure thing! That happens because I don't have Extender looking for the small icons -- it just resizes the big ones. I'll see if I can rectify that. I reuploaded the pack too :)

  • 1 month later...

I try to create my own or add the calculator and firefox jumplist pack, but nothing happens after clicking the new jumplist items, no warning or any actions.

I am using Windows 7 Professional 64 bits, firefox 3.6.7, and Jumplist Extender 0.2 C.

It is my first time using this program.

  • 4 weeks later...

I have a problem when installing 0.2-C.

First i got this error:

I'm in love with this program.

To tell the truth, after using keyboard launchers, memorizing arbitrary hotkeys etc. for over a decade, I'm just so tired. I seriously can't take any more of this pointless memorizing of custom hotkeys, program names and commands. Visual commands are just so much easier.

I'm not sure I explained myself very well (I'm tired) but let's just say that this program is gold.

  • 2 months later...

I just found out about this fantastic program.

Is anyone else having issues accessing the website currently? I am not having any luck and I tried two different connections.

yes, I am having issues with http://jumplist.gsdn-media.com/ and http://mercurial.robotnik.ws/JumpList.

fwiw, http://code.google.com/p/jumplist-extender/ is still up.

For those looking for the source: Find it in the Google Code downloads page. Sorry for taking so long to post it: (a.) My host disappeared without me ever knowing, and (b.) I no longer work on the project (partly because the source became too unruly for me!)

FYI, if you're running on another language besides English (like German), then you've probably witnessed JLE not doing its job. The reason why is that the shortcut replacements (the ones that actually contain the jump list) are not being pinned to taskbar. Pinning to taskbar is done by a mandatory workaround: It takes the text from the "Pin to Taskbar" and "Unpin to Taskbar" menu options, and executes them automatically. However, it does not work when the text is in another language, like German or Spanish.

So here's how to fix that:

1. Go to "C:\Program Files\Jumplist Extender". Open "PinShortcut.vbs".

JLE_ReplaceStrings.png

2. You'll need to replace the "Pin" strings (shown in blue above). To see them in your language, right-click on any program shortcut in Windows Explorer. Replace the text above with the following, in your language:

JLE_ShortcutPinStrings.png

3. Do the same for the two "Unpin" strings (shown in green above). First, take that same program shortcut and PIN it to both the taskbar and start menu, so that the unpin menu options show up. Then replace the text above with the following, in your language:

JLE_ShortcutUnpinStrings.png

4. Save the script and try it out. Custom jump lists should work now in your language.

Note for jump list coders: Firefox presents the best solution for automatically pinning shortcuts: it looks up the specific language string in shell32.dll, so shortcut pinning works in any language. See source (search "shell32.dll" for relevant section).

Jumplist Extender v0.3 is released! Non-English (foreign language) users are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to download this release, as this fixes a major bug!

Download v0.3 (1.62 MB)

FIXED:

  • Non-English systems would not apply jump lists to the taskbar. This has now been fixed.
  • Broken update check would display weird code in the menus.
  • Old web links were broken, but now fixed.

KNOWN ISSUES:

  • Recent file history cannot be used with jump lists.

Some testing of this release would be appreciated :)

Jumplist Extender v0.3-B is released!

Download v0.3-B (1.7 MB)

FIXED:

  • Log files were being made on the Desktop by mistake.
  • Various other minor quirks.

Again, non-English users (especially German) should try this release out, since it should make Jumplist Extender work in your system!

In other news, I'm looking over the bug reports listed on the code page (finally). I'll respond to them at some point this week.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • TeraCopy 4.0 Build 28 by Razvan Serea TeraCopy is a compact program designed to copy and move files at the maximum possible speed, also providing you with a lot of features. Copy files faster. TeraCopy uses dynamically adjusted buffers to reduce seek times. Asynchronous copy speeds up file transfer between two physical hard drives. Pause and resume transfers. Pause copy process at any time to free up system resources and continue with a single click. Error recovery. In case of copy error, TeraCopy will try several times and in the worse case just skips the file, not terminating the entire transfer. Interactive file list. TeraCopy shows failed file transfers and lets you fix the problem and recopy only problem files. Shell integration. TeraCopy can completely replace Explorer copy and move functions, allowing you work with files as usual. TeraCopy is free for non-commercial use only. For commercial use you need to buy a license. The paid version of the program includes the following features: Copy/move to your favorite folders. Save reports as HTML and CSV files. Select files with the same extension/folder. Remove the selected files from the copy queue. Features added since version 3.17: Enhanced speed graph. New multi-threaded copy engine. Support for copying to multiple targets. Queue system for managing multiple copy operations. Support for receiving files via the LocalSend protocol. TeraCopy entry in the modern Windows Explorer context menu. Integrated toolbar in the title bar. Why receive LocalSend transfers with TeraCopy? Handle file conflicts: Skip, overwrite, or rename files when a file with the same name already exists. LocalSend always creates another copy, which can waste time and disk space, especially when resuming an interrupted transfer. Filter unwanted files: Apply ignore lists or remove files manually before accepting a transfer, so unnecessary files are not downloaded. Better performance on fast networks: In tests over a 10 Gbps connection, TeraCopy received files several times faster than the standard LocalSend app on Windows. TeraCopy 4.0 Build 28 changelog: Fixed a bug where Overwrite behaved as Overwrite All during same-drive move operations. AdvancedInstaller fixed the installer’s security vulnerability: EXE Bootstrapper resolved the %appdata% location incorrectly for the System account.

    • First exciting thing to come to Windows in a long time ! This is the kind of things they should focus on, instead of cramming as much AI as they can in everything.
    • New AMD graphics driver fixes install issues and FSR 4.1 crashes on RX 7000 GPUs by Taras Buria AMD is rolling out yet another graphics driver. Version 26.6.4 is now available for download, bringing two important fixes. One is for those still using Windows 10 and having trouble installing driver 26.6.2. In fact, this patch is coming from the recently released hotfix, so it is not new if you are already running version 26.6.3. The second fix is for RX 7000 owners. AMD recently brought FSR 4.1 support to the previous-gen graphics cards, but there was a bug with certain games crashing when using FSR 4.1. I experienced this issue with Forza Horizon 6, so today's driver should take care of that. Here is the official changelog: Intermittent install issue seen when installing AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.2 on Windows® 10 systems for Radeon™ RX 7000 series and above graphics products. Intermittent application crash may be observed in some games with AMD FSR Upscaling 4.1 enabled on Radeon™ RX 7000 series graphics products. Known issues include the following: Intermittent application crash or driver timeout may be observed while playing Battlefield™ 6 on AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370. AMD is actively working on a resolution with the developer to be released as soon as possible. Texture flickering or corruption may appear while playing Battlefield™ 6 with AMD Record and Stream on some AMD graphics products. AMD FSR Upscaling and AMD FSR Frame Generation may show as inactive in AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition while playing Battlefield™ 6 when enabled on Radeon™ RX 9000 series graphics products. Failure to install may be observed while installing AI Bundle components in some regions with limited access to HuggingFace and GitHub. Model flickering or rendering failure may be observed in Maxon Cinema 4D and Blender on Radeon™ RX 7000 series and above graphics products. Users experiencing this issue are recommended to install AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.3.1. Intermittent application crash may be observed on some models while running Blender on Radeon™ RX 7000 series and above graphics products. Users experiencing this issue are recommended to install AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.3.1. You can download the AMD Radeon driver 26.6.4 from the official website here. Full release notes are available on the same page.
    • Amazon may use OpenAI and Nova models after Anthropic reportedly raises costs by Karthik Mudaliar Amazon is reportedly considering to use OpenAI models and even its own Nova family of AI models after Anthropic raised the cost of using Claude inside Amazon services. According to a report from The Information, Amazon is weighing its options to reduce costs under a new arrangement with Anthropic. But back in April, Amazon said it would invest $5 billion more in Anthropic, with the possibility of adding up to another $20 billion if certain commercial milestones are met. That investment actually came on top of another $8 billion Amazon had already put into the Claude maker. Anthropic, meanwhile, committed to spend more than $100 billion over 10 years on AWS technologies, including Amazon’s Trainium chips. Amazon isn't just a customer of Anthropic but also one of the most important backers and cloud partners. This is why it makes it interesting that Amazon is considering other alternatives to handle its internal workloads. Although Amazon has been building its own options for a while now. Its Nova family of AI models was announced in late 2024 for Amazon Bedrock, with models aimed at text, image, and video tasks. Amazon pitched the model around cost and latency at that time. With that said, OpenAI has also become a more realistic option recently for AWS customers as well as for Amazon itself. Earlier this year, OpenAI brought its latest models and Codex coding agent to Amazon Bedrock, after changes to its previously more restrictive Microsoft cloud arrangement. This allowed AWS to serve even those customers who wanted other alternatives from Claude, without having to move workloads out of Amazon's cloud. Evaluating alternatives could also be due to commercial pressure and not necessarily a sign of a damaged partnership between Amazon and Anthropic. Whether or not Amazon is actually considering switching entirely to OpenAI's models or its own Nova models remains unknown at this moment.
    • Samsung introduces new AI classroom tools and interactive displays at ISTELive 2026 by Fiza Ali Samsung has announced several new education-focused software features and interactive displays for schools during ISTELive 2026, taking place in Orlando, Florida, from 28 June to 1 July. The focus of these updates is on making shared classroom displays easier to use for teachers while giving IT administrators more control over managing devices. One of the key additions is the Samsung Account Management Solution (AMS). In many schools, multiple teachers share the same interactive display throughout the day, which means signing in and setting everything up can become repetitive. With AMS, teachers can log in by scanning a QR code or tapping an NFC-enabled ID card. Once signed in, their personalised workspace, including wallpapers, bookmarks, app shortcuts, and files, can be instantly accessed through Home Personalisation. Samsung has also included a screen lock feature, allowing teachers to lock the display if they need to step away briefly. Furthermore, the company is also updating its Education Portal with new tools designed for school IT administrators. The portal will allow IT administrators to register teachers, enrol devices, and manage user access from a central dashboard. Administrators can also link NFC cards to teacher accounts, making sign-ins quicker across shared displays. Another addition is a Tags feature that lets schools organise displays by building or classroom. Those tags can also be used to send emergency notifications to selected Samsung Interactive Displays through compatible platforms such as InformaCast and Raptor. Moreover, the tech giant's AI Assistant is gaining several new features aimed at supporting everyday classroom tasks such as lesson planning and classroom engagement. One of the features is Circle to Search, which lets teachers circle text or images on the display to quickly find related information, videos, or web results without interrupting the lesson. The content can then be brought into Samsung Whiteboard. Another feature, Live Transcript, converts spoken lessons into real-time captions, which could be useful for students with hearing impairments or those in multilingual classrooms. The AI Assistant also introduces AI Summary and AI Quiz. The summary tool creates summaries of recorded lessons, while AI Quiz generates questions based on lesson content so teachers can quickly check how well students are following along. Teachers signed in through Samsung AMS can also return to their previous AI-generated lesson materials without logging in again. Alongside the software updates, Samsung has expanded its Android-based Interactive Display range with three new models: the WAF-S, WAFX-PS, and WAHX-M. The WAF-S and WAFX-PS ship with Android 16, bringing updates to security, accessibility, and overall usability while maintaining compatibility with Google's education services including Google Classroom and Google Drive through EDLA certification. Meanwhile, the new WAHX-M is the biggest addition to the lineup, introducing a 98-inch display for larger spaces such as lecture halls and conference rooms. It will also be available in 65-inch, 75-inch and 86-inch sizes. Samsung says the WAHX-M further includes on-device AI features such as voice commands, text-to-speech, and an AI calculator, alongside support for Samsung AMS and AI Assistant. Samsung AI Assistant has been available since April, while Samsung AMS and the updated Education Portal will begin rolling out in July.
