What's new

  • A quick bar at the bottom of the window. Switch between light, dark or the Windows theme, between Spanish, English or the Windows language, and turn hover-to-open on or off, without opening the settings. The panel and the tray menu follow the same theme and language.
  • See at a glance if you're up to date. The version sits at the right of that bar with a green tick when it is the latest; click it to check again. When there is a new one, an "Update now" button appears right there.
  • A right-click menu for every pinned group. Right-click a group on the taskbar for "Open all" and "Edit group".

Under the hood

  • No more 60 MB download on every update. Since 1.6.0 the installer downloaded the .NET 10 runtime each time, even when it was already installed; now it only does when it is missing.
  • Offline installer. TaskbarGroupsFluent-Setup-Offline.exe carries the .NET 10 Desktop Runtime inside, for PCs without internet or behind a proxy. Everyone else can keep using the normal one, which downloads the runtime only if it is missing.
  • Ready for the Microsoft Store: the same app now runs from a Store package, where the Store takes care of updates.

Install

Download TaskbarGroupsFluent-Setup.exe below and run it. If you already have it, the app offers the update when it opens.
