Multiple Opus instances in the taskbar since 13.21.1

Help & Support

Hi. Sometimes I constantly switch between languages, which causes Opus to restart. And there's something I've noticed since 13.21.1. It does not happen every time, only sometimes, and it happens when Opus restarts (even via dopusrt.exe).

After comes back, I now end up with two Opus entries in the taskbar: the usual pinned one, and another one from a open Lister. If I click the pinned one, it opens a new Lister in a new taskbar entry, and so on. Only way to fix this is shutdown Opus.

The easiest way I have found to reproduce it's by switching between languages (but it only happens sometimes, I'm not sure what else might affect it).

Try unpinning it and re-pinning it. The Windows Taskbar gets confused sometimes.

I already tried that. It has no effect.
To clarify: when Opus is in that state, each Lister shows up as its own separate entry in the taskbar, without the usual Opus jump list.
Clicking the "original taskbar entry" (so to speak), opens new Listers, each in its own separate taskbar entry. Very similar to when you do not have any Listers open.

Combining taskbar buttons is a function of the taskbar, we have no control over whether it does that or not.

Scripts can put windows in their own taskbar group, but you'd have to have written/installed a script that does that as it's not done by default.

Other than that, it's all up to the Taskbar.
