Pinned Shortcuts Gone AWOL

 

I've been using Start8 for over a year and until recently had no complaints.

However, I now find that previously pinned shortcuts on the jump list for a Start menu item have disappeared. 

It gets worse - the ability to pin a shortcut to a menu item has also disappeared.

 

Example.

I have pinned Microsoft Excel shortcut to the Start8 menu so it appears at the top of the menu when I click on the Start button.

If I subsequently open an existing document or create/save a new document, the ability to pin that document under the Excel shortcut doesn't exist.

This feature, common on Windows 7, used to work on Start8 when I first installed the app over a year ago, but for some time now, it has ceased to work.

Uninstalling then reinstalling the app achieves nothing.

If you open Excel and right click on the taskbar button, does the jump list work ok for Excel?
