daty2k1, i have some more info for you on why the jumplist don't work properly.. a sec ago i started the app up.. it was still logging me in.. i right clicked on it, the jumplist worked fine! but then when it finalized the login, it disappeared!

maybe you can do something with this info ;) also did you get my PM?

also for the google apps support, what you might be able to do, is get the domain of the apps (i.e. @neowin.net) and like, if its not @gmail.com or @googlemail.com, you redirect them to mail.websitename.ext, i.e. if the user is [email protected], you redirect them to mail.zeryl.net rather than the usual google.com/mail ..

Same problem for me as for some other people. Running Win7 RC 64bit.

I start it up and get no jumplists at all.

I have tried running as Administrator - still no jumplists.

Oddly enough...I ran it in WindowsXP SP3 Compatibility mode...and I get a jumplist - and everything in the jumplist works properly.

Hope that helps to fix it.

Quoting myself so the information doesn't get buried...saw no response so I didn't know if it was read. I'm still running it in WinXP SP3 compatibility mode and its working fine.

Hmmm it's really strange :( I also got some more info from a friend of mine. He was able to give me the detail of the exception and it said something like "Access denied". Also, he said that he was sometimes getting the jump list depending on which folder the exe was :blink: I wish I could reproduce it so I can see what's happening in the debugger.

Also, I now have a Google Apps account so it should definitely be in the next version :)

Well if it helps, I simply extracted the zip...and removed the version number from the folder name.

C:\Program Files(x86)\GmailNotifierPlus\*.exe

Thats the path I put it in. Again - I'm not getting any errors at all. When I launch it it shows up in the proper place, and when I hover the icon I get the thumbnail mail view. But I get no jumplists at all until I run it in WinXp compat mode.

cool app. i love it. the jumplist does work when i don't have any new emails, but when ever i get an email the jumplist disappears. I've ran it as administrator and compatibility mode in XP (SP1, SP2, SP3), vista (SP1, SP2) but still nothing. even when i read the new email (i have been sending myself test emails) the jumplist doesn't come back. a little annoying and keeping me from using this full time.

oh and to the people who don't like the icon can always change it, i did.

Looks sweet! One problem, I use hosted gmail and gmail notifier won't access those. If you could make it have the ability add that, i'd be greatly appreciative.

just email me if you need info on the hosted gmail accounts, ill see what i can do.

Don't worry, it will be in the next version ;)

ok i did get the jumplist back when i have new emails. i ran it as administrator for all users (right click->properties->compatibility->'change setting for all users'->'run this program as an administrator'), but it dosn't show the unread emails in the jumplist like daty2k1 has

It can't handle too many emails.

Wow, sorry I didn't think people would have so many unread mails in their boxes :blink: I don't think I will create overlay icons up to 999 but I can do something about the text being cut off.

Next version should be coming tonight or tomorrow hopefully.

    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.

    • CANT FIND SECURE BOOT ON BIOS

      By goretsky · Posted

      Hello, From looking at the screen shots in your motherboard's manual at https://endownload.colorful.cn/EnDownload/MotherBroard/2022/Intel 600/Manual/Intel 600 Series BIOS English/Intel 600 Series BIOS User Guide.pdf, you go to the ADVANCED option at the top of the BIOS (UEFI) menu, then select SECURITY in the list of options on the left.  From there  you can enable and set the Secure Boot mode. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
