Windows 11: Removed shortcut appear again at the end of the icon list

please fix this

August 3, 2025 4:22:17 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

Hi,

My OS is Windows 11, my dock is at the top middle in "ghost mode". When I try to remove a shortcut from the shortcut list of my dock I get the message that the shortcut is removed - but it is not. It re-appears at the end of the list.

Please fix this.

Cheers
Michael

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. If you restart explorer.exe does the removed item still appear on the dock?

Thank you,

As I found out, this only happens when the software the dock relates to is still open.

It should be fairly easy for you to fix this.

I can not reproduce your issue, refer to my short video below. Please post a video showing your issue so we understand the issue and try to reproduce it.

Note: I tested under Ghost mode too, the result is the same for me.

Thank you,

Just remove the icon, hide the dock and show it again. It should be obvious then. Windows 11.

As you can see on my video above, it icon is gone from the Dock when I removed it. It reappear only because the video is playing in a loop.

Thank you,

And as I told you: After having removed the dock you have to autohide Obejctdock and open it again. Then you will see that the removed dock re-appears at the end of the list. This only applies to software which is still open.

Please fix it.

I am sorry, you mentioned "Ghost Mode" not "Autohide mode". I checked Ghost Mode and I can not reproduce your issue.

Thank you,
