I did two things at the same time (shame on me) as I was fighting with getting the pinned item to open Access and the database on the command line. I deleted all the AutomaticDestinations files and then when I forgot to add the database to the command line, instead of trying to Edit the existing pinned item, I pinned after the database was open, creating a new item.. and then adding the path and database name in the command line and it is working again. I am not confident this will stick, so I will return to this thread with more info if it returns. Thank you! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/excel-pinned-on-displayfusion-taskbar-pinned-and-recent-files-do-not-show/?ID=b9d41b0f-5474-491e-bd3d-2c817da67f7a#18 Fri, 16 Apr 2021 18:38:19 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/excel-pinned-on-displayfusion-taskbar-pinned-and-recent-files-do-not-show/?ID=b9d41b0f-5474-491e-bd3d-2c817da67f7a#18 DisplayFusion Hello,

That's really strange, glad to hear you found a solution though! I'm going to throw that one in my back pocket in case anyone else comes across something similar

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/excel-pinned-on-displayfusion-taskbar-pinned-and-recent-files-do-not-show/?ID=b9d41b0f-5474-491e-bd3d-2c817da67f7a#17 Fri, 16 Apr 2021 10:31:13 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/excel-pinned-on-displayfusion-taskbar-pinned-and-recent-files-do-not-show/?ID=b9d41b0f-5474-491e-bd3d-2c817da67f7a#17 DisplayFusion I think I fixed it. Somehow the Excel jump-list was messed up. Strange was that the problem was only on Displayfusion taskbar. If I de-activated jump-lists in the settings then right click on the pinned Excel was instantaneous.So I went here
%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\AutomaticDestinations

and deleted everything in the folder. Then I pinned again Excel on the displayfusion taskbar, opened Excel and pinned the recent files.
Everything works now. Thank you for looking a bit at it, hope my answer helps if anybody faces the issue again. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/excel-pinned-on-displayfusion-taskbar-pinned-and-recent-files-do-not-show/?ID=b9d41b0f-5474-491e-bd3d-2c817da67f7a#16 Wed, 14 Apr 2021 16:13:30 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/excel-pinned-on-displayfusion-taskbar-pinned-and-recent-files-do-not-show/?ID=b9d41b0f-5474-491e-bd3d-2c817da67f7a#16 DisplayFusion Hello,

Sorry for the delayed response, I wasn't able to find anything in those debug logs. This is really strange, as I'm not too sure what would be causing this to happen specifically with Excel.

I'm going to send this over to our developers to have a look at, and see if they can see anything I missed. I'll keep you updated with any further information.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/excel-pinned-on-displayfusion-taskbar-pinned-and-recent-files-do-not-show/?ID=b9d41b0f-5474-491e-bd3d-2c817da67f7a#15 Mon, 12 Apr 2021 19:39:15 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/excel-pinned-on-displayfusion-taskbar-pinned-and-recent-files-do-not-show/?ID=b9d41b0f-5474-491e-bd3d-2c817da67f7a#15 DisplayFusion Hi Owen, did you manage to look at the debug files. Now it is doing intermittently, it is really strange, only with Excel. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/excel-pinned-on-displayfusion-taskbar-pinned-and-recent-files-do-not-show/?ID=b9d41b0f-5474-491e-bd3d-2c817da67f7a#14 Fri, 09 Apr 2021 12:22:55 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/excel-pinned-on-displayfusion-taskbar-pinned-and-recent-files-do-not-show/?ID=b9d41b0f-5474-491e-bd3d-2c817da67f7a#14 DisplayFusion I tried to reinstall Office, nothing improved. If I unpin the Excel from the Displayfusion taskbar and I move a new Excel window to the the monitor and click right then it works fine sometimes, I see the recent files and all the menu items. But after I pin it it stops working and there is always a slight delay in loading the menu. Did you manage to check the debug file? I also reinstalled DisplayFusion the standard versios and then again the beta. No change. Somewhere something is wrong with Excel and displayfusion in my laptop ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/excel-pinned-on-displayfusion-taskbar-pinned-and-recent-files-do-not-show/?ID=b9d41b0f-5474-491e-bd3d-2c817da67f7a#13 Thu, 08 Apr 2021 18:48:10 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/excel-pinned-on-displayfusion-taskbar-pinned-and-recent-files-do-not-show/?ID=b9d41b0f-5474-491e-bd3d-2c817da67f7a#13 DisplayFusion Time 20:43-20:44 Version 9.7.2 Beta 8 ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/excel-pinned-on-displayfusion-taskbar-pinned-and-recent-files-do-not-show/?ID=b9d41b0f-5474-491e-bd3d-2c817da67f7a#12 Thu, 08 Apr 2021 18:10:23 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/excel-pinned-on-displayfusion-taskbar-pinned-and-recent-files-do-not-show/?ID=b9d41b0f-5474-491e-bd3d-2c817da67f7a#12 DisplayFusion Hello,

It looks like that debug log didn't fully build. Could you try to send it over again?

Also, what version of DisplayFusion are you currently running?

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/excel-pinned-on-displayfusion-taskbar-pinned-and-recent-files-do-not-show/?ID=b9d41b0f-5474-491e-bd3d-2c817da67f7a#11 Thu, 08 Apr 2021 16:35:37 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/excel-pinned-on-displayfusion-taskbar-pinned-and-recent-files-do-not-show/?ID=b9d41b0f-5474-491e-bd3d-2c817da67f7a#11 DisplayFusion Time I right clicked 18:31 (my local time, Central European).

I did load the backup of your settings, but unfortunately I still can't seem to reproduce the issue. Could you send me over a debug log? Here are the steps:

• On the DisplayFusion Settings > Troubleshooting tab, change the Logging drop-down to "L1: Log Minimal" and click Apply
• Reproduce the issue (You can just right click excel on that taskbar) and note the time so we'll know where to check in the log file
• Click the "Export Info to File" button on the Settings > Troubleshooting tab
• Reply with the file attached
• Disable debug logging after sending the log

Could you also send me over a screenshot of the menu shown when you right click excel?

Does the issue persist if you pin excel to a Window taskbar as well, or does it only happen on the DisplayFusion taskbar?

Had to delete the old links and pin again the programs I use on each taskbar. It is ok with word but not with Excel. I get only the Displayfusion commands with right click but not the Files list. Very irritating for my workflow.
Any ideas? ]]>
