Post Task Bar oddity 2.66

I just installed 2.66 and noticed I gained an extra taskbar Icon when running

The Icon on the left is a 'pinned' icon that I have used to launch Calibre since W10 became available.

As of this update, Using the Left icon to launch, results in the Right Icon (circled)

I did not see anything obvious in the release notes

That was simple (Just never needed to do that before)

It's probably because I added fixed identifiers for all the calibre programs rather than relying on the default identifier, which comes from the path to the executable. More robust in the long run. It did not cause me to have to re-pin on my win 10 machine, perhaps it does on win7.

Ah well, since it's a trivial fix, I am not going to worry about it

Thank you from my side, as I have had the same problem. Now I have to recover my start image, which has been overwritten with this release.

Thank you for the quick fix kovidgoyal. I had this problem with Windows 10 and your solution worked like a charm. I had tried something similar that didn't work but your instructions with the proper sequence worked great!

This workaround didn't work for me, the 2nd icon still appears. Windows 10 LTSB. Guess I'll stick with 2.65.1 then.

The alternative is to run it, ping the second one that appears and then unpin the old one.

You can't pin the 2nd one, if you already have it pinned before because the only option available will be to unpin it on the second instance.

Downgraded to 2.65.1 and will leave it here, thank you.

I had the same trouble to get it to work. The sequence is as follows:
- close calibre
- unpin the (old) icon
- run calibre from the start menu (or from an icon on the desktop)
- a single calibre icon appears on the taskbar
- now right-click on that single calibre icon on the taskbar
- pin it
- done!

From now on everytime you use the icon on the taskbar, no 2nd icon will appear.
Hope this helps.

That's what I also did and when I clicked on that pinned icon, the 2nd icon appeared.

Forget what you SEE.
DO

When the second icon appears, UNPIN the one you clicked
Now PIN the remaining (the NEW ONE)
That should do it, Close Calibre, the click the 'New" pinned icon

You should not see a second one again
