Volume control in notification area not working with touchpad scroll

konstantinub 3 years ago updated by Michael (Ramen Software) 3 years ago 1

Hi,

I am running 7TT v5.11.2 on Windows 10.0.19014. My laptop is a Lenovo Yoga C930, and I'm using Windows 10's built-in touchpad drivers with gestures enabled. Scrolling is assigned to two-finger drag (default).


Changing the volume when hovering over the taskbar / notification area and scrolling does not work when I try to do it with the touchpad. Specifically, when I place the cursor over the taskbar or notification area and perform a two-finger drag gesture to scroll, nothing happens.


Scrolling with a USB mouse or any other USB HID device that supports scrolling works fine, it's just the touchpad that it has trouble with.

Answer

Thank you for reporting the problem. I'm familiar with it, but unfortunately, I don't know how to fix it.

The problem was reported before:

I'm closing this topic as a duplicate.

I installed the current beta version 5.11.2.1 last Friday (6/18), and a couple of days ago Windows Security found Uwamson.A!ml and said it was a PUP associated with 7TT, so I quarantined it.


What does this mean?

Thanks!

Answer

It's a false positive detection. See the discussion here:

No longer combining Sticky Notes by app ID

vklrc 3 years ago updated by Michael (Ramen Software) 3 years ago 6

Until recently, 7+TT was combining my sticky notes, but for the past week or so (might have been with v5.11.1), it is no longer grouping them. I have my Windows taskbar settings set to Never combine and 7+TT set to always combine the sticky notes by app id. This is with v5.11.2, and I even tried fully uninstalling and reinstalling 7+TT.

Using it in Win10, of course.

Answer

Fixed in v5.11.3.

Maintain chocolatey package for command-line installation

Amyn 3 years ago updated by Michael (Ramen Software) 3 years ago 1

Chocolatey is a command-line package manager for Windows, similar to apt-get for linux or npm for nodejs.

Someone has provided a package for 7TT there Chocolatey Software | 7+ Taskbar Tweaker 5.8,

which means I can run `choco install 7-taskbar-tweaker` from a Powershell prompt for a quick and silent install.


Unfortunately it's still on 5.8 and hasn't seen an update since oct 2019, which fails to 

If the developer of this software saw the value in using a package manager and decided to maintain a chocolatey package himself, this would solve the time gap often seen between a new release and the availability of a choco package for it.

I suppose since you own the release process, you'd be able to make the update automatic.

GDATA AV reports http://rammichael.com/downloads/7tt_setup.exe?version&changelog=... as infected

Anonymous 3 years ago updated by Michael (Ramen Software) 3 years ago 1

Probably false positive, nevertheless, GDATA AV reports that a virus was found when loading web content from http://rammichael.com/downloads/7tt_setup.exe?version&changelog=5.11.2. It subsequently blocks the balloon/popup note that would notify you of an update and provide the update button/link - making it impossible to update the program from within. However, there is no alarm when manually downloading and installing the program.


The version number mentioned above is only an example; it's been doing that for the last 5 or so versions.

Answer

The mentioned link merely reports the latest version of the tweaker, along with the changelog. It isn't, and can't in any way be a virus, it's just text.

Unfortunately, I have no control over third party antivirus vendors. If you are a customer, please contact their support and report the problem.

Constant crashing + reloading Windows 10 task bar, every time I click anywhere on it - since new Windows update

Luke Flegg 3 years ago updated by Michael (Ramen Software) 3 years ago 2

Since Window 10 updated to include the bullsheet news toolbar thing, the whole task bar is unusable - crashing and reloading EVERY time I click it. If I close 7+ tweaker, everything is fine. This happens on both my laptops. 

I've tried disabling the news toolbar (I don't miss it) but it doesn't help.

new version is recognized as security threat by multiple sources v5.11.2

Anonymous 3 years ago updated 3 years ago 2

Norton Security (SONAR.ProcHijack g43, g45, g47)

Windows Smart Screen

Google Chrome

They all reported malware today

Answer

Unfortunately, false positives are common among newly released 7+ Taskbar Tweaker versions. It's not specific to v5.11.2, virtually every version has this issue. Usually, antivirus vendors remove the false detection a couple of days after it's being reported to them.

This problem is mentioned in the FAQ, and was discussed dozens of times in the blog comments, for example:

https://rammichael.com/7-taskbar-tweaker/comment-page-43#comment-11035

https://rammichael.com/about/comment-page-4#comment-10292

And many others. Searching for "False positive" yields more than 170 comments on my blog.

There's also the blog post of Nir Sofer, Antivirus companies cause a big headache to small developers, which has a great description of the problem.

Cycling doesn't work

ladeessedeleau 3 years ago updated 3 years ago 9

Hello,


I'm sorry to bother you. I used to work on Windows 7 until then and cycling between my taskbar items using mouse scroll worked perfectly.

I updated to Windows 10 yesterday and reinstalled taskbar tweaker and noticed that scrolling through the taskbar works pretty randomly :(

It always works if the taskbar is already selected (as the first plan application) but doesn't work if the focus is on another window, when I hoover the taskbar and scroll, the focus remains on the app window and the other items in the taskbar start flashing in orange..

Is there a way to fix it ?

Just for the record, I use Taskbar Tweaker to manage my Dofus windows, change the order by just drop&drag them through the taskbar, AND switch from one to another just by hoovering the taskbar and scrolling with my mouse without any extra click,. I'll be so sad if it cannot work the same way on Windows 10 :(

Thanks for any further help !

[PS] Sorry for my english, it's not my native language.
