Star

• Program Execution

Description

• • The Windows 7 task bar (Jump List) is engineered to allow users to “jump” or access items they have frequently or recently used quickly and easily. This functionality cannot only include recent media files; it must also include recent tasks.
  • The data stored in the AutomaticDestinations folder will each have a unique file prepended with the AppID of the associated application.

  Location

  Win7/8/10:
  C:\%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\AutomaticDestinations
  

Interpretation

1) Program Exeuction

• First time of execution of application.
  • Creation Time = First time item added to the AppID file.
• Last time of execution of application w/file open.
  • Modification Time = Last time item added to the AppID file.
• List of Jump List IDs -> LINK

2) File/Folder Opening

• Using the Structured Storage Viewer, open up one of the AutomaticDestination jumplist files.
• Each one of these files is a separate LNK file. They are also stored numerically in order from the earliest one (usually 1) to the most recent (largest integer value).
