Ya - nice catch more (videos) are coming today...

Thank you Kiarash for your kind words... Between not having this video to having it as it is righ now, what do you choose?

You have to have some kind of a limit. The 2G is the isolated storage limit, that is the size of content in your application work folder. In theroy your app can be tht size, but then the question how practicl can it be since all apps have to be downloaded from the market place via network...

The Short story: The answer is yes. Taskbar is part of your explorer.exe process, which run as standard user. If you run as admin, the tasbkar manager can't cross the mitigation boundry and therefore the messages are not sent (or recieved) by the elevated running application.

The Long story:

Hi big Al,
To answer you last question, yes. You can control the way you group different windows in to one glom or several gloms. Watch the    Jump in to Windows 7 Taskbar Jump Lists for more information and examples.

And thanks for the feedback.
