MCL-878If pinning Minecraft.exe to the task bar, the launcher creates a second icon when started
I dont even know if this is fixable but when i pin the Mc launcher to the taskbar in windows 7 and i click on it i expect it to come up right there where i have it pinned, what actually happened was it makes a new minecraft launcher on the taskbar
To activate the bug u will need to
1. Pin minecraft to the taskbar in windows 7
2. Open it
Environment
Windows 7 64bit

Maybe this is a limitation of Minecraft launcher for windows.
Minecraft.exe is not an actual launcher, it only runs .minecraft/launcher.jar.
These are separate program, so 2 icons are shown on the taskbar.
[~ANBO Motohiko], you are right about the launcher and the executable being separate programs, but this issue still needs to be fixed. Will confirm for version 1.3.10 ASAP.
Warm regards, Liam Whitt.
Update: Confirmed for version 1.3.10.
I have windows 8 but have the same problem although the icon is different from the launcher.
Confirmed for version 1.4.7.
Confirmed for version 1.5 (it took 2 tries to update to the latest version).
Confirmed for version 1.6.5. (I am bugged by this because I normally have over 10 programs open and it fills up my taskbar.)
In 1.6.11 I can't even pin the launcher.
NekoJonez, just drag the Minecraft icon from your desktop to the taskbar. That should do the trick.
Confirmed for launcher v1.6.19
Confirmed for launcher v1.6.48.
