Is the Nightly 12.0a1 64 bit icon in the start menu for Windows 7 supposed to have a jump list for frequent pages visited and tasks (open new tab, open new window, enter private browsing)?
Both my standard Firefox icon and Waterfox icon have jump lists in the start menu and taskbar. Even the pinned Nightly icon in the taskbar shows this, but it doesn't show in the start menu. Just odd to see that the icon in the start menu doesn't offer this feature considering it does in the taskbar. I've reinstalled several times but it doesn't seem to change anything.

There are hidden settings that control the display of jump lists, check these to make sure that they have been enabled.
Type about:config into the location bar and press enter, accept the warning message, and a list of preferences will be displayed.
In the search box at the top type taskbar.lists, it will then display a small number of preferences. Check the values of the following preferences (you can double-click on them to change the value)
- browser.taskbar.lists.enabled - should be set to true to enable jump lists
- browser.taskbar.lists.frequent.enabled - set to true to have the frequent sites displayed
- browser.taskbar.lists.tasks.enabled - set to true to have the tasks displayed
- browser.taskbar.lists.recent.enabled - set to true to have the recent sites displayed
By default the first 3 settings are true, the last is false.
