doesn't work on windows 11 pro 23H2 > several issues #316

Hi all, really great idea to clean up the taskbar 🥇 However, under win 11 pro 23H2, "taskbar groups" shows unexpected behaviours:

  1. when launching "taskbar groups" app, I always have to accept that a tool by an unknown developer shall be launched
  2. after confirming this, the "taskbar groups" app always opens two instances of the app
  3. after creating a new group and clicking on the group in the "taskbar groups" app, the folder "Desktop" is opened (instead of x:...\TaskbarGroups\Shortcuts)
  4. after adding a shortcut to the taskbar, and clicking on the new taskbar icon, I again have to accept to open a tool by an unknown developer
  5. after confirming, I get the following error message: "A part of the path x:...\TaskbarGroups\Shortcuts\config_groupname_\config...\Groupimage.png could not be loaded" (translated from German)
  6. after hitting , this message reappears once
  7. the icons of the apps in the group fixed to the taskbar appear in different sizes: sometimes in "normal" size, sometimes in larger (uglier) size
  8. It's partially not possible to open apps from the new group

Does anyone of you already had such strange behaviour? Happy to get any feedback for issue solving

This software hasn't been updated in nearly 4 years, I wouldn't hold my breath on fixes for Windows 11

I'm also having issues with windows 11.

I can create a group pretty easily, but then clicking on that group on the taskbar doesn't seem to do anything.
