Have you ever thought that your most used projects should be displayed on the Windows 7 Jump List?

If your answer is No, then this isn't the right place for you...

Windows 7 Jump List Support adds a custom category to the Windows 7 Jump List and displays the recent solutions on it.

Allows you to pin, unpin, or delete the items from the Jump List.

It also adds two tasks: 'Create Project' and 'Open Project'. Not  a so powerful feature, but it's there.

I hope you enjoy it, as I do now.

 

Update: The source code has been released to the public under the MIT licence:
