The taskbar button will always show the window icon in this case. @DanielRemains That isn’t a bug, it’s desired behavior that occurs whenever Explorer (or any app that doesn’t do anything special with the taskbar icon) is NOT pinned to the taskbar and has only one window open.

This sounds like propaganda, pushing Microsoft proprietary software! With open source free software, it's already free! So does 50% more really sound like the better deal? LOL ...

In fact it's a bug that I would like to have all the time. Do this: - Open explorer - Go to My Music (don't close it after) - Right-click the explorer icon on the taskbar and pin it - Browse back to desktop from the same explorer Window - Go back to My Music - Unpin it from taskbar Now go back to Desktop from the same Window. Now everywhere you will go after doing this, the explorer icon on the taskbar will change everytime you go to another folder with a different icon. Like go back to My Music, the explorer icon on the taskbar will change to a music icon. This trick will no longer if you close the Explorer Window and open a new one, weird eh? DR Hey Rafael, I just found a ‘bug?’ in Windows 7. In fact it’s a bug that I would like to have all the time.

Do this:

– Open explorer
– Go to My Music (don’t close it after)
– Right-click the explorer icon on the taskbar and pin it
– Browse back to desktop from the same explorer Window
– Go back to My Music
– Unpin it from taskbar

Now go back to Desktop from the same Window. Now everywhere you will go after doing this, the explorer icon on the taskbar will change everytime you go to another folder with a different icon. Like go back to My Music, the explorer icon on the taskbar will change to a music icon.

This trick will no longer if you close the Explorer Window and open a new one, weird eh?
