Hi Porter, Thank you for the feedback! Regarding the taskbar issue you mention, I think it could be related with *menuinst *(the package used to interact with menus/shortcuts for conda packages). Also, we currently have an issue for a double icon in the taskbar that could be related with the described behavior (Two Spyder icons on Windows taskbar (regression?) · Issue #24292 · spyder-ide/spyder <https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/issues/24292>).
Let us know if this info helps!
