Dev channel update to 79.0.301.2 is live
That_s_Me They work a little differently in 10 and there's no real reason to target them for 8.1 / 7 as 7 is now unsupported and I'm not sure how many people use 8.1 or why they'd want to, but it's a very very small number.

So, that's just your opinion, which you forgot to mention early?
And it not related in any way to developers intentions? New browser is targeted to 3 versions of Windows, so it's fair to have feedback from them.

No, it's not yet.

And then again - why you telling me your own opinion, while I was writing feedback to developers?![]()

That_s_Me I think the term the other folks are looking for is "Jump List". In Windows 10, the new window options in the right click menu are implemented as Jump List entries, and as the others mentioned, Jump Lists don't exist in earlier versions of Windows, which is why you don't have those options available there right now. The best way to make sure we know you want them, though, is to send feedback via the smiley so we can get an entry in our database for you and measure how many other people want it as well.

filetrekker1360 Oh, god
Why you're keep telling me things which I'm not even arguing to?

That_s_Me Well, it's factual that it won't work in the current build due to API differences and probably never work as for the reasons I mentioned (Windows 8.1 has 0.2% market share) - sorry you're not happy about these facts. if you are happy with Windows 8.1 that's great but you'll run into more and more niggles with it as it's effectively abandoned by developers.

I'm just letting you know why it won't work and probably never will.Nope, you're just telling me your opinion on reasons for that. At least you're finally added "probably", that's fair.

That_s_Me Support ends in January 2020 but the purposes of this project it's effectively unsupported as the final version of this product will be released after end of support.
I'm just letting you know why it won't work and probably never will.
