Taskbar tasks list is missing
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.
For your information,
Well I had no idea what kind of bug is this, some had it some didn't

No Win10 Update is the cause. All I mentioned that is normal is on that Build. I didn't only check on the Insider Build; A-ok on both.
Cheers,
Drew- Would you mind mentioning which Windows update (KB number) is the culprit?
- Mind to take a full screen screenshot? this white area doesn't say where it is taken from exactly.
The Firefox issue, I am able to get the tasks in jump list back by going to about:config then setting browser.taskbar.lists.enabled to false then true. I am not aware of a similar flag in Chrome or Edge Insider.
No flag needs to be enabled. But, jumplist item in the OS Settings needs to be On.
Cheers,
DrewThe exact text of that option:
"Show recently opened items in the jump lists on Start or the taskbar and in the fire explorer Quick Access".
recently opened items for browser means recently visited websites.
for other programs like Photo viewer means recently opened photos and so on.
