After upgrading from EG 6.1 to 8.3, I am no longer able to use Windows Jump Lists with the new SAS icon that is pinned to my taskbar, as I was previously able to do with SAS EG 6.1. No matter how many programs I open through EG 8.3, a Jump List is never generated on the Windows taskbar icon. 

 

This post suggests that Jump Lists still worked in EG 7: https://blogs.sas.com/content/sasdummy/2017/07/26/sas-eg-file-recent-menu/

 

Has this functionality been disabled in EG 8? Can anyone help me restore its functionality?

By, "jump list," do you mean the below?  If so, it's working for me in SAS EG 8.2.

Make sure that in your Personalization Settings that Jump Lists is "on."  It may already be, but it's worth double-checking.

Thank you both for your replies. Yes, Jump Lists are enabled in Windows settings. Glad to hear it wasn't intentionally disabled for EG 8.

 

I'll attempt to work with my ITS shop to fix the issue. Thanks again!
