second taskbar icon in windows 7 with 3.3.2

#1 Post by jimpoison » 2010-02-23 23:52

if i start filezilla 3.3.2 by clicking on the filezilla icon which is docked to the windows 7 x64 taskbar, a second filezilla icon is shown in the taskbar.
that wasn't a problem before. version 3.3.1 and before were behaving correctly. if i downgrade to version 3.3.1, everything works normal again.
here's a screenshot of the bug:

before (<= 3.3.1) it looked like this:

Undock and re-dock.

Hi,

I have the same issue with Windows 7 64 and Filezilla 3.3.2. I have tried unpinning it from the taskbar and then repinning it, but this doesn't resolve it - each click of the Filezilla icon opens a new filezilla window.

un- and redocking doesn't solve the problem. it stays the same. only downgrading to 3.3.1 makes it work correctly again.
so something must have changed between 3.3.1 and 3.3.2 which makes the problem appear.

here (http://www.winboard.org/forum/win7-allg ... ppelt.html) are some people with the same problem. unfortunately it's in german....
somebody even uninstalled filezilla and cleaned every trace of it out of the registry, but after installing 3.3.2 again the problem stayed the same.
the only solution was downgrade to 3.3.1 (like it was for me)

How exactly do you pin? You have to pin from the taskbar, not out of the start menu.

FileZilla now sets a proper AppID, before it didn't. It is actually the installer now that cannot set AppIDs.
