Q: I had Winamp pinned to the taskbar, and this plug-in creates another icon when starting Winamp.

Q: How can I have a custom Winamp icon pinned to the taskbar?

A: Open C:\Users\(USER NAME)\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned and change the Winamp icon. If it doesn't update after this, try unpinning and re-pinning.

Q: I minimize Winamp to the system tray (clock area), and after restoring it, the taskbar icon's features won't work anymore.

A: Select a "new" font. It can be the same as the old one, just re-save it

A: You can use any metaword in the text, if that text-formatted tag exists, it will be read and used. E.g.: %comment% reads the comment field, %genre% reads the genre field, etc.
