I was having this issue.

Windows Taskbar Thinks V7 is V6

I reported this during the WIP (RH-56379). Windows still thinks V7 is V6 in the taskbar. I keep miss-clicking V7 which launches a new instance. By the end of the day, I have half a dozen instances of V7 running in the background. [image] It also interferes with your ability to right-click the icon to access recent documents.

I figured out that apps are stacked in the taskbar by their AppUserModelID. Looks like very few programs specifically set a value for the process, window, and shortcut. Windows automagically gens an ID for programs that don’t specify a value.

I was able to find and get rid of the V6 one. Run “shell:appsfolder” to get a list of apps on your PC. Alt+V to show Details and then Choose Details. Add the AppUserModelId column.

Right click the Rhino 6 instance and Uninstall.

F5 to refresh the view and it should be gone.

Now I can pin Rhino and have the V7 one. Right-click now works for recent files as well.
