Individual Icons for existing entries

[benep]

First, thank you for your hard work on this project. I have been following your updates and was very excited about the release.

Unfortunately, I am unable to change the icons of existing entries/programs from old version 0.2.1. I am able to select them using the file selector or add them through drag and drop, but they are not saved. Interestingly, when I create a new entry, it works without any problems using the same file. I have also tried running the Taskbar.Groups as admin, but that did not help.

I am running Windows 11.

Hmm- interestingly, I cannot reproduce this. I cleared out my LocalAppdata and Appdata folders for the applications, launched the alpha release (last release before this one), created a group, edited the icons with the new 0.2.2 application, and then the new ones stayed.

Can you clarify what was the old 0.2.1 application? Is it the one from the main repo?

I checked again and it was the 2.0.0 from tjackenpacken.

Maybe you have also a workaround for the problem. I have many times the same batch file with other arguments.

After revisiting the issue, I cannot seem to produce it anymore (perhaps a commit after fixed it?). Not sure, but feel free to test this latest build from the repo.

With 0.2.2.1 it works. Thank you so much!

I've noticed something really weird.

Using this particular build, which reports as 2.2.1, when I add shortcuts to group entries it includes the shortcut overlay.

If I go back to using the 2.2.0 (I think that was a repo pull from an earlier thread as well) it does not.

I have both in the same folder, side by side, and the MD5 for the 2.2.0 is: Taskbar.Groups.exe MD5 994DD63AE80BDEB9601850A6B08D2B4A

For the 2.2.1, it is: Taskbar Groups.exe MD5 6dc2e659ad28cd16ed87c45b9f50bc44

My group was originally created using the 2.2.0 version, and it does not overlay the shortcut icons (which is how I like it).

Was this intentional?

@JohnLGalt No, it shouldn't do that, actually. Very odd. The only thing that should have affected icon creation is https://github.com/PikeNote/taskbar-groups-pike-beta/commit/0fb81ee74e2862b88e5a71ec98f2f433a9371872, but the lines after are just duplicates. I can't seem to replicate it on my end. Does this happen for every shortcut?

I'll test some more. I also notice that if I run the one build after having run the other build, the initial run throws up an error stating that it cannot access the folder:

I think this is because of the running background task? But this happens after a successful launch of a different version, so using 2.2.1 after 2.2.0 and vice versa.

I'll test with more stuff, maybe even make a new group, and see what happens, and report back.

Also - do I need to make a new issue of it if I can fully replicate it? If so, if I can replicate it I'll make a new issue and link it.
