Microsoft added a feature that is so useful for B4X development.

The timeline (from task view).

Calling up the task view(the icon next to Cortana) will present you with a screen of tiles that represent what you have done recently (up to 30 days if you enable sync).

Entering .b4J in the search bar will call up all things related to b4j, it shows the name of the projects you were working on/looked at in the IDE.

Clicking on a tile will open the B4x IDE and load the project if it was a b4X file.
If the tile relates to a webpage it will open that.

Finally a feature I will use. :)

I do not have windows 10 and maybe I did not get your post right.

I have Windows 7 and by right clicking on the icon of b4a or b4j or any other software icon on the taskbar, it is shown a list of the last files used with that software; if you select one of those files it will be opened - the sw starts and the file is opened in it.

I use this many times per day.

Is the new Windows 10 feature this?
