Some suggestions/feature requests:

Instead of the menu that comes up upon Shift+Right click, how about doing away entirely with that menu and integrating Minimize and Maximize above the Close "jumplist"? Many users used to right click and choose Minimize or Maximize, now it requires pressing Shift additionally. Also, the Jump List should appear where the menu appears right now, not above the taskbar button so it's more accessible and clickable in place (there's no need to move the mouse an inch above).

Hi, I am looking for the source code download and cannot find it. Could you point me into the right place, please. Thank you.

I too am looking for the source code sample. My own attempts to customize the jump list have failed--all the necessary API calls are returning success, but only the default taskbar tasks are showing up. A working sample would help :).

Thanks,

Mike

I am coming along, but a few things are still not working. Do you have a code sample for the Tasks ("verbs"). I have added IShellLink-objects into an IObjectArray, but get the error "Wrong Parameter" for the objects in the array :-(

Thanks again,

Daniel

The SDK of Windows 7 have a lot of samples, but the problem (to me) is that there are for VC++ and i just work with VB. MSFT people wants that people use this technology but i think must be samples for C# and VB too. Hope some day...
