    My 'Recent's' are all (and I mean all of them!) on the Desktop, just one right click away, via QTTabBar...

    @Edwin - all? I find Qttabbar's Recent list is updated if I double click a file in file explorer, but not if I open one from an open/save box. Whilst I can see the recent list via rt click on the toolbar in file explorer, I don't see an option from the desktop.

    If there's a way to improve either, I'd be interested.. thanks.

    You might be right on that!

    Sorry, I see nothing like that last screenshot; is there a starting point in Qttabar's options? I see nothing related to it rt clicking on the taskbar or desktop. Thanks!

    Oops!
    First enable the Toolbar...

    *Note*: I may have disabled Recent Files list somewhere, but I don't really need that feature. I just want to open that last opened window if it was closed.


    dalchina: I have the "Old-Skool" right clicking on the program in the task bar, because even though the new one looks nicer, there are times where I have encountered bugs with that when right clicking doesn't do anything. I dunno if it's software relates, or graphics card related, and I never wanted to deal with that. So I have this opion enabled, because it also has minimize, Maximize, etc...

    I don't see what I see in your screenshot.

    Callender:
    I 'may' check out "Quick Cliq", looks like a good app, but don't really want an additional Taskbar Icon in the right corner (or an extra open program) necessarily. But I may check it out.

    dalchina: No jump lists for me, because of the first image above in this same reply.


    Edwin:
    "My 'Recent's' are all (and I mean all of them!) on the Desktop, just one right click away, via QTTabBar..."
    Okay, I may check out QTTabBar, but it's an extra program in the background. Maybe a Registry tweak would be nice.


    Extra info:
    I want my TaskBar to look clean just like the way it looks in this image. I don't want a search bar or anything additional other than what you see in the TaskBar:




    *Final Note*: Maybe if in Classic Shell from the image above with "Recent items" if it can show the last 3 opened items or so (I'm all about simplicity) that would be great. It seems like Quick Cliq could change that amount, but lists it within its program in the bottom right of the screen.

    Great... some of the images didn't go through.

    *Edit*: I tried replacing all the images that went missing from my reply above.

    I Tried QTTab, but it looks like this and I don't see a history of recent files that were opened. And I don't want that additional thing in my Explorer windows.

    Hmh... My Recent Items seem to be FORCED not to show. I opened many different programs and text files.
