I have notepad++ v5.8.7 on Windows 7 SP1. Jump list for application is not working from start menu?? It worked few months ago, i don't know when it stopped. How to fix this? Unpin and repin didn't help.

4Default (Windows 7 provided) jump lists show only file types associated with the application. Changed associations are the most likely reason for why would the standard jump list stop working. Since I can't add comments here, here's something to address the NppJumpList problem in the Start menu. I developed NppJumpList. It supplies a custom recent list, that shows the same recent file list, that you can see in NPP's File menu. But... I forgot about the Start menu completely. Now I can see, that it does indeed show the standard recent list, not the custom one. Whoops.– thisAug 28, 2013 at 15:09

It seems like the solution is to install NppJumpList :
Plugin for Notepad++. Adds windows 7 jump list support. Unicode version of Notepad++ only.

Did you do this optimization : Remove Shortcut Arrow From Desktop Icons ?– harrymcMar 10, 2011 at 11:40

No, but this is for XP, and I see no connection with my problem? Do you have some explanation why should I do this? Mar 10, 2011 at 12:18

Don't do this, because expressly it can cause problems with jumplists. The only explanation I can come up with is that NppJumpList does something wrong for Windows 7. You should maybe raise this question in the Notepad++ Forums or from Support for NppJumpList.– harrymcMar 10, 2011 at 13:29

2Hey, seeing by the comment on the post, the developer of NppJumpList is now on SU! So things might improve.– harrymcJan 31, 2014 at 8:28
Most applications with fly-out menus in Windows 7 that I've used just have a listing of recently used files. Is it possible that Notepad++ currently doesn't have a listing of recently used files, or that the list is corrupted?
