Creating JumpLists via XAML
Small warning: If you try this on Windows Vista, your app will just crash…
JumpLists are registred per application and the easiest way to create a (static) JumpList is via XAML in the App.xaml:

Creating JumpLists via Code
The “coding” JumpList API is a bit odd to use, but still easy to understand:
var jt = new JumpTask
{
ApplicationPath = "C:\\Windows\\notepad.exe",
Arguments = "readme.txt",
Title = "Recent Entry for Notepad",
CustomCategory = "Dummy"
};
JumpList.AddToRecentCategory(jt);
var jt2 = new JumpTask
{
ApplicationPath = "C:\\Windows\\notepad.exe",
Arguments = "readme.txt",
Title = "Code Entry for Notepad",
CustomCategory = "Dummy"
};
var currentJumplist = JumpList.GetJumpList(App.Current);
currentJumplist.JumpItems.Add(jt2);
currentJumplist.Apply();
The “Apply()” call is needed, otherwise the new JumpItem will not be added. As you can see, you can create new JumpList entries, add (and I think you could also remove items) from the default recent category. Besides
JumpTasks there is
JumpPath, which just contains a link.
In the XAML Part I also hooked up some events, so your application can get notified when a user pins something or removes something which you might want to handle.
