Why so, I changed the shortcut's name from "calibre 64bit - E-book management" to "64bit calibre", and that's what I see in the task bar when I right click. I have other pinned icons named "32bt calibre", and "portable calibre'.

Sorry, no free virtual beer for thee today, nor for that matter any augmented Merlot.

Tut, tut lazy boy yer not following the trail I laid to my beer .

In your Start choices from a right click on the Windows banner at left end of task bar right click on the Calibre main program choice and select More>Open File Location and you will likely see that it takes you to ProgramData/Microsoft/Windows/Start Menu/Programs.

Now if you do the same to an application that does not do the double icon thing on the task bar it will likely (can only say likely because I am not a complete genius yet ) find that it is the exe that is run.

I think you use PDF-Viewer. I think you will find its behavior is the same as Calibres and it follows the same start from shortcut pattern (Edit: if it is on the task bar).

I have a funny feeling that whether the double icon thing happens or not, or comes and goes in a session may be related to if a similar other application ex taskbar is also running. I have not ever checked that but just on reflection may be?????

Note I do not know the cure if there is one, otherwise it would be a rum that I was afta .
