Not sure if anyone else has experienced this:

When playing any playlist by double clicking the .m3u in Windows Explorer, the files will play fine, but when playing from file 1 to file 2, the taskbar will not update. It still displays file 1 but is playing file 2.

Going from file 2 to file 3 will update the taskbar correctly.
The correct name shows in the player window.
If I manually select next track (file 1 to file 2), the taskbar does update correctly.

Checking the playlist, all looks ok - tracks listed 1 through x. Files are also named correctly in Explorer.

Preview v1.99.34.22022 32bit on Windows 10 21H2

It was reported via email last week & is fixed internally with it being an unintended side-effect of a change to deal with taskbar updates causing things to hang / crash in the prior builds.
