Rune Boutroue Bekkhus 0 Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 In Windows 7, I have EN fixed to the task line. When opening the program, another EN icon appears beside the fixed program icons. That is esthetically disturbing, and does not follow the Wondows 7 conventions. Most programs in Windows 7 only have one icon in the task line, and that icon is being highlighted when one opens the program. Rune.
Wordsgood 526 Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 I noticed that when I started using it too, but it seems to similar to the way Window tabs work. The one on the left representing a short-cut to open the program, and the one on the right indicating you have at least one open Evernote instance running. Does that make sense?
Level 5* gazumped 12,227 Posted April 11, 2014 Level 5* Posted April 11, 2014 I don't get two icons.. do you exit Evernote via File > Exit, or just by clicking the 'x' in the window? The 'x' will leave one instance of Evernote running, which may be why you get two icons?

Either that or I'm the least observant user ever.
evb 30 Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 Solution: Do not pin the desktop symbol of EN to the taskbar but start EN. Only then pin the running program to the taskbar, and you will only have one symbol. Worked with my Win7-prof. 32-bit.
Level 5* jefito 5,598 Posted April 11, 2014 Level 5* Posted April 11, 2014 I do see what the original poster reported. Not a problem for me, though, as I have Evernote set to start up on Windows login, so I don't need to pin it.
Level 5* tavor 668 Posted April 11, 2014 Level 5* Posted April 11, 2014 I get this too, but I get around it by keeping EN in the Quick Launch menu.
Rune Boutroue Bekkhus 0 Posted April 11, 2014 Author Posted April 11, 2014 You are all quite right, and it's not a big deal. It's just that with all other pinned programs (Word, Thunderbird, you name it), it doesn't happen, and I prefere it that way, and to be able to handle all programs in the same way…
mruseless 15 Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 I noticed this same thing, and stopped keeping Evernote on the Taskbar because of it. Now I just keep it pinned to the Start menu.
