I use my Win10 laptop with 2 different docking stations (each with 2 monitors). I have been setting up pinned shortcuts and noticed when I start my laptop on each dock the taskbar settings are managed independently (i.e a shortcut I create on one dock does not appear when I start my PC connected to the other dock).
However, I don't seem to see any profiles created in DF. Why is this? I would have thought my DF taskbar settings would be persistent across both. I've attached my settings file. Thanks.

Files attached. Interestingly I seemed to have lost the shortucts I created on Dock 2 originally and it seems the ones created on Dock 1 are persistent.

Thanks! It does look like the monitor IDs get swapped on the docks, so that would be causing the inconsistent behaviour. In the backup that you included in your original post, I'm not seeing any configured shortcuts at all. Could you export your settings again and attach them?

Thanks, I can see the shortcuts now! How often do you add/edit the shortcuts on the taskbar? I can write up some instructions on how to export the settings from the one monitor ID and restore them for the other monitor ID so that you can do that any time you updates some shortcuts if you like?

Thanks Keith. I am still making edits across both so if there is an easy way to keep them in sync that would be helpful. No rush though!
