7+ Taskbar Tweaker
7+ Taskbar Tweaker allows you to configure various aspects of the Windows taskbar.
Most of the configuration options it provides can’t be tweaked using the taskbar properties or the registry.
The tweaker is designed for Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10.

Windows 11 Support Status
- 7+ Taskbar Tweaker doesn’t support the Windows 11 taskbar, and probably never will. See this blog post for more details.
- Some of the tweaks are available in Windows 11 as Windhawk mods. See here for the list of mods, and vote for missing mods that you’d like to see implemented. Read more about Windhawk here.
- 7+ Taskbar Tweaker works on Windows 11 version 23H2 and older with the old taskbar which can be restored with third party tools. See this blog post for more details.

FAQ
Q: Which registry keys does 7+ Taskbar Tweaker modify? I don't need extra processes in my system.
A: The only registry keys the tweaker modifies are its own settings. There are no registry keys for the options it provides. The tweaker does that by injecting a DLL to explorer, hooking/subclassing/some other methods of the dark side.
As for extra processes, the tweaker is a native program, and is very lightweight. It shouldn’t slow down your system, and uses an extremely small amount of memory. Also, you can hide the tray icon if you want.
In case you want to remove the tweaker's settings from the registry, look for them here:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\7 Taskbar Tweaker
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
(7 Taskbar Tweaker
value)
P.S. if you're a programmer, you might want to take a look at the 7+ Taskbar Tweaking Library.
Q: My antivirus complains about 7+ Taskbar Tweaker.
A: It's a false positive. I guarantee that the tweaker binaries (and any other files on this site, unless specifically noted) are 100% clean.
Also remember that the tweaker injects into explorer and modifies its memory, which is indeed suspicious.
Q: Can I Group/Combine/Label only some of the items on the taskbar?
A: Yes, use Taskbar Inspector.
Q: May I use 7+ Taskbar Tweaker in a commercial environment?
A: Yes, feel free to use it wherever you want.
Q: Where is the portable version?
A: When installing the tweaker, choose the Portable type of install, as shown on the image below.
The portable version will be extracted to the selected folder.
Note: If the tweaker is already installed on your computer, the option won't be visible. You can launch the setup with the /portable
command line switch to force a portable installation.
Q: I want to report a bug/suggest a feature! What is the best way to do it?
A: Post it on the UserEcho page.
Q: I want to translate 7+ Taskbar Tweaker to my language.
A: The archive below contains the files needed to be translated.

Thank you very much for your wonderful app.
It gave me the ability to shuffle and reorganize my taskbar, which I can’t thank you enough for. I’d pay for this app if you charged $$.
Second problem was only partially solved. I have two monitors. I managed to get rid of preview window by clicking “nothing” under Hovering, and it works for one monitor but not the other. Any idea on how I can get this functionality to work for both monitors?
Thx,
JT
AFAIK, Windows 7 doesn’t extend the taskbar to multiple monitors. Do you use a program for that?
Yes, it’s called Actual Multiple Monitors, so I am unable to get your app to work on the second monitor. Please help :).
Request: Can you another option to the “Combining” section of 7 Taskbar Taskbar. Combine after x windows. For example, after 5 or 10 windows of the same App/AppID are started, then only combine them.

‘Right click’ == Standard window menu
Last night while preparing to shut down I was right-clicking and “Close”ing many windows in a hurry. My system got into a state where right-clicking no longer brought up the context menu.
7TT was otherwise still running ok though. I used Task Manager to kill 7TT, verified that Win7 was running the task bar, then restarted 7TT. The problem persisted. A warm reboot fixed the issue.
That’s all I have. I will run debug builds and perform tests.
I’ve never encountered such an issue.
The ‘Right click’ == Standard window menu option basically makes right click work as Shift+right click. So if you enable it and Shift+right click, it shows the jump list.
Maybe the system had the Shift key stuck in down state (It happened for me a couple of times, clicking Shift fixed it).
Yeah, I’ve had the shift/alt/ctrl keys “stick” on occasion. That didn’t occur to me at the time because I wasn’t using the keyboard. If it happens again, I’ll check the shift key.
Thank you for this app! Makes Windows 7 more tolerable 🙂
I have one request – and I would bow down and kiss your toes if you did this – could you please add the ability to left-click a group and open ALL of the windows of that group? For example, if you have 5 Skype windows grouped together but behind some other application, you’d click the group and they would all come forward.
That would be incredible. Absolutely universe-shattering.
It dosen’t open the ideas properly.

WordPress isn’t too good in providing links for multipage comments.
Many people request features for right-click or for double click or for hovering etc…
I think you should create:
a list of all clicks possible (right click on button, right click on empty space, middle click on button, middle click on empty space, hovering etc…)
and
a list of all commands possible (Max Windows, Close windows, Ctrl+Alt+Tab, Ctrl+Win+Tab, etc…)
What do you think?
First, you cannot mix a button click and an empty space click.
You cannot do “Middle click on empty space -> Close window” or “Button middle click -> Open task manager” (well, you can do the second, but it doesn’t make sense).
As for allowing, e.g., “Button middle click -> Context menu”, why would anyone want this? It complicates both the interface and the implementation for no good reason.
I agree that it will be very complicated to do it in the usual way.
But let’s think.
What might happen if we do the two lists mentioned, under Advanced tab, intended for advanced users.
As a safety, it will be a Reset button (if somrthing goes wrong), and a warning message (Notify no responsibility for everything to work properly, and not everything fits, etc.)
You can call it: Experimental Zone, Trial and error, etc.
In this way, the Programmer does not need to work a lot, to make it perfect. And users get the maximum customization they can ask for.
I do plan to do some “Experimental Zone” in the future. It probably would be just .ini/registry keys, not a GUI, though.
So how the regular User gets what he wants?
The kind of the “Experimental Zone” I’m talking about, intended for letting users get the maximum customization they can ask for…
I don’t want the regular user to get to the “Experimental Zone”.
If the option fits the tweaker, I’ll move it to the main GUI, otherwise it would be tweak-able via .ini/registry.
Thanx for 7tt again!
Still waiting for minimize on rightclick 😉
Thanks. There are some pretty annoying things about Windows 7. You made it a little less annoying.
Greatly appreciated!
OMG! You even brought back the “standard window menu” on right-click!
When we can expect for Windows 8 compatibility?
Probably after the Release Preview.
That tweek is awesome!
I looking for such thing!
Can you also add posybility to change visual settings for taskbar. I really gate this “glass” like – gradient on taskbar buttons.
I do not plan such an option. You might want to check whether it’s possible with theming.
this is the exactly tweak I always wanted. Thank you so much RaMMicHaeL!!!
There appears to be a bug where the roll over state does not disengage.
What do you mean?
Can you provide more details or reproduction steps?
Dude…u rock! Just upgraded (unwillingly) to Win7 from WinXP; had another taskbar tweak (Taskix) i used before. Was initially glad Win7 natively allowed moving taskbar items, until i found out similar items were stuck together. Thanx for saving my sanity.
When (approx.) will be the next release?
Probably after Windows 8 RTM is out.
I want to send you Private Message. Is your Email active? (Last time I didn’t get answer)
Yes.
I hope someone can help me with this, because I searched on the web and I found nothing about this.:( I want to pin to a program in the taskbar many files (I got 16 pined, but I want more). Is there a way to make windows let me pin more files?
As for that matter… Looking for an option to replace “Frequent” in the jumping list to “Recent” (“Frequent” is appearing in some programs like Internet Explorer)
Thank you. Really helpful. Windows 7 taskbar is now bearable.
Is there any way of removing the *left-click* version of the jumplist?–it always shows when I’m using remote control probably because of the mouse delay. It’s the biggest annoyance I have with the windows 7 ui.
Thanks.

Bug:
While moving taskbar button (Right click dragging), the appropriate preview stays in place rather than going with him.
Another thing, reorder the preview…
1. the Reordering doesn’t remains after, to the next time. why?
2. Enable Right click dragging like in Reordering Taskbar buttons.
I can’t reproduce this.
Mmm… This could be your version already solved the problem.
What I’m trying to say is, in my opinion, taskbar button and preview belongs to him, should move respectively:
While moving taskbar button (Right click dragging), the appropriate preview should go with him.
And…
While moving preview (also need to be by Right click dragging), the appropriate taskbar button should go with him.
One last thing.
Note that when the cursor hovers over the preview, we can see the actual window that belongs to him.
I would very much want the same thing will happen if I will move the cursor over the buttons on the taskbar, I can see the real window belonging to the button, without moving the cursor to its preview.
It’s the ideal situation for me.
I came here looking for a way to fix the shift+right-click menu, but found so much more! Thanks for this amazing app!
This tweaker is amazing! Thank you!
Есть идея насчёт регулятора громкости. Сейчас при скролле создаётся процесс SndVol.exe. На моей машине это после длительного простоя занимает около двух секунд!
Предлагаю сделать опциональный «минималистичный» регулятор громкости. При наведении курсора на значок громкости отображается стандартная подсказка «Speakers: 15%» или «Speakers: Muted». Можно сделать так, чтобы при изменении громкости (или выключении звука) принудительно отображалась эта же подсказка с текущим значением громкости. Чтобы это не вызывало непонимания, стоит обрабатывать скролл только над значком громкости, как сейчас обрабатывается нажатие средней кнопки для отключения звука.
Идея с подсказкой мне нравится. Попробую сделать на досуге.
В плагине Taskbar Gestures (для foobar2000, https://sites.google.com/site/foobar2000components/home/taskbargestures ) реализована похожая возможность для регулировки громкости плеера. Там при скролле подсказка появляется сразу же ровно посередине над иконкой и текст обновляется без задержек. Просто как пример (если не будет получаться сделать, можно посмотреть как сделано).
Судя по всему вы немного ускорили работу регулятора громкости. По ощущениям стало быстрее работать 🙂
Но если навести на иконку громкости, появляется подсказка «Speakers: 20%» и при изменении громкости скроллом подсказка не исчезает, а поверх её всплывает большое окошко громкости. Но это правда мелочь, конечно.
Не знаю что вы там сделали, но сейчас уже задержка появленя окна регулятора мало ощутима. Спасибо.
Awesome plugin!
Though I have 1 little question someone up on the top of the comments said that your program isn’t working with an other program which adds a 2nd taskbar. Do you ever plan to add support for lets stay Ultramon (the most popular multiple task bar program)?
Greetings!
See my last comment here:
https://tweaker.uservoice.com/forums/73857-general/suggestions/1774533-ultramon
The issue with Ultramon is simply that 7TaskerbarTweaker does not allow the *reordering* of tabs on the second monitor. Is there a solution for this detail? This is what I’d really like . . .
What do you mean by “reordering of tabs”? What tabs?
Sorry, not “tabs,” I guess, but “taskbar items” (i.e. program icons, etc.). I recently switched to Win7 from XP, where I used a combination of Ultramon (for the extended taskbar) and Taskit (for doing drag ‘n’ drop relocation taskbar items). However, Win7 does not support Taskit, so I’ve been searching for a solution. 7tt seemed to be it, but it doesn’t allow reordering on the second monitoring toolbar AND the Win7 mini-pop window (for multiple open instances of an application) does not pop up on the second window. Any ideas? Thanks.
Last time I’ve checked, Ultramon used it’s own implementation of the second taskbar, so there’s not much I can do.
As I understand, it works as expected on the primary taskbar, right?
Have you tried using Dual Monitor Taskbar? It’s a fair bit more basic (pretty much just a second taskbar), but it does a really good job, you can reorder taskbar items…and it’s free =)
Thank you for this amazing software. I installed in windows 7 64bits. I updated from Vista recently. In fact I was looking for a way to show two columns of icons in my taskbar. I use several programs and now instead of having their icons easily grouped in one taskbar, I need to constantly switch between two columns in the taskbar of W7 64 bits. Is there any way your program can solve this or do you know another software that groups the icons into one taskbar?
Yes, 7tt works great on the primary taskbar. Thanks!
I cannot start this programm 🙁 No error-message.
after doubleklick on your programm the icon appears in the right bottom corner, but when I move my mouse to the icon it disappear 🙁
I use Win7 64bit
I’ve never experienced such an issue…
Do you have a clue about how can it be reproduced?
Багрепорт. Если открыть пуск и при открытом пуске попробовать изменить громкость скроллом, регулятор появляется, но громкость не изменяется, и он как-то странно мерцает. Не критично, но решил запостить на всякий случай.
Исправил в v4.0
please have an option to save the settings in the registry without the need to run “7 taskbar tweaks” always, please , it would be really helpfull.
Read the first Q/A of the FAQ above.
1. Can you please improve the Taskbar Inspector? (Example: to close a lot of windows of 1 group by 1-2 steps, to choose multuple items by the arrow, to add some commands to the context menu)?
2. I’m looking for switch Combine/Decombine by “click”, so I can choose which 1 group to Combine/Decombine and leave all the rest.
Double click on the Application Id, right click -> close.
Like what?
There’s a “decombine active group” option.
1. I didn’t know about the “Double click on the Application Id”.
2. The context menu before “Double click on the Application Id” and after is not the same… I looked for those options when I simply R-clicked on the Application Id. Why not to add these commands even before “Double click on the Application Id”?
3. If I want 2 groups decombined and 2 groups combined?
Where would I put the per-Application-Id options then?
You can use the per-Application-Id combining options.
1. I didn’t understand you. What is the problem to put in the context menu: Show Label / Group / Combine // Sort // Change // Cascade / Tile / Tile // Restore / Minimize / Maximize / Close ?
2. What you’re suggesting, it’s good if I use the same programs and the same configuration all the time.
I really think that what I propose (to add “Combine/Decombine” to “Middle click on a group” or any other operation) it is more user-friendly.
Though determined to hang on to XP as long as possible, I recently had to buy a new PC. I hate Windows 7 even more than I thought I would. Thank you SO much for 7 Taskbar Tweaker! Between it and Xyplorer I’ve regained my sanity.
why cant i install within “C:\Program Files\” or “C:\Program Files (x86)\” ?
You can, but you have to run the setup as Administrator.
Taskbar Inspector:
Please improve the selection by arrow:
If I press L-click and moving the arrow – sometimes it is selecting sometimes it is changing the order (BTW, Why can’t I reorder to other ID apllication automatically)?
Consider adding V BOXes next each Item.
Bug.
Testing this in a clean Win7 Pro 64bit VMware.
I only checked: Control volume when mouse is over: The notification area.
Then I closed the settings, tested volume. Then opened settings. Clicked About “3.43”
Then when I happened to roll the mousewheel over the 7TT settings window, the titles at the top move around in a weird way. For example, if the mouse is on the upper right area where “Jump list (default)” and “Standard windows menu” and I roll the mouse wheel, the words “Taskbar items” above moves to the left and right along the title line. When I rolled the mousewheel somewhere else, “Grouping and combining” started sliding left and right – it would even move off the edge of the window. Also, after the About box is clicked, the mouse roll wheel make all the settings blink a lot in general. It’s a very odd bug.
Hopefully I’ve told enough information for you to reproduce the erratic behavior.
I couldn’t reproduce it on my Windows 7 32-bit.
Hi there,
I am running on windows 7 64-bit and am experiencing a similar problem. I am not able to control my volume when i scroll the mouse wheel when the cursor is over the clock.
Is there any advise you could share to get back this function?
Hi,
Is that the same bug that Orbidia described, with scrolling text and flickering?
Please try to come up with exact reproduction steps. Otherwise, I’m afraid I cannot do much about it.
After I rebooted the VM, I couldn’t make it happen again. Really strange kind of bug… Must have been something I installed earlier which conflicted with 7TT.
Everything seems solid now.
Ещё одна неприятность, но это наверное баг стандартного таскбара. Если какое-то приложение «подвисло» на секунды 3-4, то в момент «отвисания» его кнопка (если отключена группировка с запускающими иконками) почему-то перескакивает на самое последнее место. В частности, регулярно проявляется на последнем Firefox, который стал немного подвисать во время сборки мусора при большом количестве вкладок. Может быть там не сложно пофиксить… 🙂
Да, это баг винды/таскбара. Насколько я знаю, когда окно не отвечает, винда его заменяет на другое окно класса “Ghost”. Когда окно опять начинает отвечать, винда убирает свое “Ghost” окно и возвращает оригинальное, а кнопка на панели задач создается заново.
Исправил, не прошло и года 🙂

Hello, I’m quite interested in using your program. However, I seem to be getting an error: “The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you’re running.” I am using Windows 7 64 bit. If there are other aspects that could be causing the issue, please let me know.
Thanks.
Hi,
Can you upload a screenshot of the error you’re getting?
I can work on getting an image, though it could be difficult to upload while at work today.
Full error text:
The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you’re running. Check your computer’s system information to see whether you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher.
That message indicates that you are trying to run a 16-bit application on a 64-bit machine, which is odd as the installer is 32-bit.
Possibly the installer is corrupt, try to redownload it.
Hmm….I’d like to thank you for your time, I seem to have discovered the problem. I right-clicked on the downloaded .exe and noticed an option for “open with Notepad”, and upon doing so got the text stating my computer’s antivirus had blocked the download. Normally it would give this error when trying to download the file, so hadn’t seen that before.
I was able to download from an alternate source, transfer it over, and the file works just fine now, ready to start customizing my interface =). Thanks again.
Could make 7tt do something about the systray icon spacing? I’m probably not the only one wishing to remove the extra margins around the icons introduced in windows 7.
See:
http://www.windows7taskforce.com/view/2774
http://windows7forums.com/windows-7-support/66115-how-condense-icons-system-tray.html
Very nice work with the program anyway, it does well what it does. Though it’s pretty sad a third party program is required to e.g. remove the “show desktop icon”.
Hello RaMMicHaeL,
I liked how it worked in XP…
But you also can do: Show automatically all hiden Icons by hovering.
You can go on to “system tray manager”, but leave something to the next release… 🙂
Awesome app! But I am having a problem with 7TT remembering App IDs. My situation is that I have three Firefox icons pinned to the taskbar, each starts a different user profile for Firefox. My aggravation with Windows/Firefox is that no matter which Firefox profile is loaded, the first (default) Firefox icon is always highlighted even if I had clicked the third icon (a defined profile).
I use 7TT to set the App ID for each Firefox window after it is loaded and the appropriate taskbar item is highlighted, for that session. The problem is that these App IDs are not remembered after closing Firefox. After closing Firefox and restarting a defined profile from the second or third icon, the first (default) icon is always highlighted unless I assign the App ID again within 7TT.
Is there any way to have 7TT remember the App IDs or could this functionality be added? Or maybe I’m missing a setting?
Thanks for a GREAT tool!
The tweaker changes the App ID of a window only until it closes.
There’s no way for it to “remember” the change, as there’s no way to distinguish between Firefox windows with different profiles.
Firefox’s App IDs is something Firefox needs to handle.
Actually, the only way that I could create three different pinned icons on the Windows taskbar was to create copies of the Firefox.exe file. So I have Firefox.exe (default), Firefox_profile1.exe, and Firefox_profile2.exe. This is how I have 7TT linking to a specific icon in the taskbar.
Is there not a way for 7TT to “remember” the executable that a window is assigned to?
Well, I didn’t know you made copies of your Firefox executable. Still, different executables that use the same AppID is a private case, and I don’t plan to make 7TT handle it.
BTW, I found this on Google:
http://code.google.com/p/win7appid/issues/detail?id=3
That did it! Thank you! I’ve been struggling with this issue since FF4.
I must say I’m impressed: helping somebody out and it’s not even your own product. Thanks again!
Taskbar items > Hovering :
Show thumbnail preview / List :
Now it shows thumbnail preview / List per a group.
I’m looking for showing thumbnail preview / List for all items at once (not only for one group).
Is it possible?
What do you mean?
Suppose I opened some windows in Windows Explorer and some in WORD and some windows in IE. When I move the cursor to the taskbar:
If I move the cursor over the EXPLORER I get a preview only for EXPLORER.
If I move the cursor over the WORD I get a preview only for WORD.
If I move the cursor over IE I get a preview only for IE.
I’m looking for showing the preview for all at once.
Is it possible?
One way to do that is to combine all of them by dragging with right click (you need this option to be enabled). I don’t know if there is another way.
Well done. At least a temporary solution. But need a permanent solution, without dragging all the time to get this effect…
A faster way is to open Taskbar Inspector, select all (Ctrl+A), right click -> Change Application ID -> random_group_[number]
Or just use Alt+Tab to view all windows.
My compliments for the app, really. It provides a number of new useful options that can actually make a difference in the day after day work flow.
Just a thing, in my opinion, _damn_ desirable:
it would be possible to create a list or something for applications that I don’t want group?
(like Windows Explorer, the folders I mean… I NEVER would those grouped!) So I know all others application would work fine, and certain ones won’t go grouped, remaining plainly visible.)
Thanks!
My fault, I’ve just understood now the power of Taskbar Inspector.
I make a bow, excuse myself and go to enjoy my newly organized taskbar.
Hello RaMMicHaeL.
I tried your suggetions.
The 1st is working, but for some reason there is a problem with IE application. Although it is included to 1 group with the rest, IE previews are not shown.
The 2nd is also working… but there is no red X for closing etc.
Anyway, The main Idea was to ease the use with the mouse only rather than always switch our hands from mouse and keyboard.
Thank you for your suggestions.
Hi,
what is the changelog of version 4.0?
http://rammichael.com/7-taskbar-tweaker-for-windows-7-and-windows-8
do not install version 4.0 BUGGGGGGGGGGG
every time I click on a minimize program if start a new instance at the place of maximizing it
I didn’t understand what the bug is about.
Can you provide exact steps to reproduce it?
Great utility – I can now order my taskbar as I see fit.
The inevitable feature request: in previous versions of Windows it was possible to CONTROL+CLICK on multiple programs running in the taskbar then you could RIGHT-CLICK and select ‘close’ to close them all. It would be wonderful if your utility could emulate this feature.
For now, you can use Taskbar Inspector for the task.
Brilliant! I hadn’t spotted that option, thanks very much for the tip.
A slightly different request then – would it be possible to make the Taskbar Inspector sortable by program EXE in some way e.g. by adding clickable column headings? That way I could easily find all related programs then use SHIFT-click to select them all before closing.
Many thanks again for this excellent utility.
Such option is not planned.
Hello!
Thank you for the beautiful tool!
Is there a way to start it without opening parameters window? I have a CMD file that starts my usual tray applications after a logon, they all start silently but 7tt always displays its parameter window on startup.
Regards,
Eugene
Hi,
Use the “-hidewnd” command line parameter.
RaMMicHaeL.
Thank you!
With version 4.0, volume control when mouse is over the taskbar doesn’t seem to work.
🙂 . I’ve reported this Bug in past. You need to do Double RightClick on Taskbar Before…
I claimed it should be by hovering But RaMMicHaeL said that this is new Feature Request… and I didn’t realize why…
What OS do you use?
Windows 7 Home.
32 or 64-bit?
Also, do the other mouse wheel options work? (e.g. Cycle between taskbar items)
More specific: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.
However, after enabling and disabling the other mouse wheel options, volume control started working again.
Before playing with other mouse wheel options, which options of that group were enabled?
“Control volume when mouse is over” what? Any other options?
Only item checked was (and is again) “Control volume when mouse is over: The taskbar”
BTW, There is another downside to upgrade to V4.0:
If you have shortcuts to 7TT (e.g. on RocetDock), they no longer work, since the executable file name is replaced from 7 Taskbar Tweaker.exe to 7+ Taskbar Tweaker.exe
This creates a little mess…
Hello RaMMicHaeL, great job on the taskbar tweaker!
Just having an issue with the latest version (v4), whenever I open any explorer window it works fine, but when I open the second one it crashes “explorer.exe”. If I close TT after that, explorer doesn’t work at all and I have to restart. For now my only solution was to remove TT from startup and everything works fine (but I’m missing the TT functionality of course).
I’m using Windows 7 64-bit. Please let me know if I can provide more info.
Thanks!
The buggy option is “When not grouping, place new items next to the existing ones”.
I’ll fix it in next version, meanwhile you’d better turn this option off.
Fixed in v4.0.1
v4.0.1:
* Made the “Double/Middle click on empty space” -> “Ctrl+Alt+Tab” work as expected on Windows 7.
* Added the option “Double/Middle click on empty space” -> “Ctrl+Win+Tab” for Windows 7. If aero is off or the tweaker runs on Windows 8, the option works like “Ctrl+Alt+Tab”.
* Fixed a crash when using the “When not grouping, place new items next to the existing ones” option.
Hello RaMMicHaeL,
Thank you for the new release.
Please, in next release put the lines above (the changelog) in the updating Dialog Window of 7TT, so we can see easily waht is new and what we can get by updating.
Thank You. GoodLuck.
Hi, I received a message about new version: V4.0.2
but I couldn’t find the changelog (not in the message and not in Website).
