Taskbar tasks list is missing
When right click on the program on taskbar, the tasks list is not shown. I reinstalled Microsoft Edge Dev but the browsing data is not clear, the issue still persist.
Before a certain update that I forgot, it used to be there but after the update I accidentally unpin and repin the tasks is gone.
EDIT: I checked others post seem some of them had same issue as me.
Taskbar Tasks is missing
It is shown in start menu
I think they really fix the taskbar issue because I found a solution to it.
It's back.
How I get it back (Work on Chrome as well):
1. Unpin the program if you pin it on the taskbar
2. Pin the shortcut from start menu
I believe that the start menu icon that pin on taskbar isn't the program
3. Open Setting, go to Personalisation and Start section
4. Toggle Show recently opened items in Jump Lists on Start or the taskbar and in File Explorer Quick Access repeatedly, it may lag when turning off
5. Check whether the Tasks came back or not, if not try again? or submit another bug report
6. If it works unpin the start menu shortcut from the taskbar and pin the program on the taskbar if you want
I used this method before in previous version but it didn't work. Now that it works I believe the Devs had fix some weird bug between the start menu shortcut and the program itself.

Now chrome is broke as well, this let me think that is it the chromium base is faulty.

- I am unable to find a .customDestinations-ms file for Edge Dev in C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\CustomDestinations, but I find its app id in C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\ImplicitAppShortcuts, which is af8446203517116f
Limyx826 My Chrome lost all tasks on jump list after updating to Version 77.0.3865.90 (Official Build) (64-bit) too!
It does seem to be Chromium related.
- Also quick note: Firefox is fine.

It is, certainly, not a universal issue. I don't have it nor did I (ever). Dev or Canary. Seems not everyone has the issue.
Cheers,
Drew- It might not be universal but there are quite a few people that are experiencing the issue. it's worth to be looked into.
For your information,
Well I had no idea what kind of bug is this, some had it some didn't

Hi,
I will, call it a Jumplist, if that's ok. I am showing my own, also, w/ Dev. Will be different, of course, w/ different items. The difference between yours & mine is clear. But, please, note, do have to have it Turned On for (more) items to show on the Jumplist. I trust this may help.
Cheers,
Drew
