Kind of stumped - I have an application I've built (it's an old Visual FoxPro app) that won't pin to the Windows 7 task bar. Before you jump and say - FOXPRO is at fault - I have several other FoxPro apps running the same exact environment and they pin to the taskbar just fine. VFP 9 apps are EXEs with a runtime dependency but otherwise act like any other Windows exe.

I duplicated the behavior on another machine as well with a full installation package, but the app just will not pin.

I'm stumped and have no idea what could be the problem.

A couple of things i've tried that didn't work:

  • Remove the icon from the EXE in case there's some Windows Icon convention problems
  • Remove manifest and config files use with app
  • Ran from shortcut - ran from EXE directly
