*oops* I am sorry I misread what you wrote... I read "setting" instead of
"sorting", so I was changing the option "Show only tasks of current activity".

Indeed changing the sorting to "Alphabetically" fixes the problem.  I have no
idea why the sorting option is what it was.  I now set it to "By Desktop" and
will see how that one behaves.  So far, it did not leave things in a bad state;
however, the animations when closing a window do look a bit odd -- instead of
the closed window being animated to disappear, some other window disappears and
then there is a smooth transition if taskbar entires changing their icon and
text. That doesn't look right.

I don't actually use activities, so this is probably something I changed years
ago...

However, after disabling this (and enabling the grouping again), I was able to
still reproduce the issue on the first try.

The "By Activity" sorting strikes me as the outlier there (it's rarely used).

Created attachment 102657

Screenshot of my task manager settings

These are the settings I use most of the time -- even when there are no groups,
I occasionally get screwed-up windows in the taskbar.

For the original report (closing a window from a group), the settings were the
same except that "Grouping" was set to "By Program Name".

Please attach a screenshot of your Task Manager config dialog.

Actually I now frequently get a slightly messed-up task manager even when no
windows are grouped.  For example, I just used right-click "Close" to close one
of two qgit windows I had open (grouping was disabled). Then *both* vanished
from the taskbar, and some icons of other windows got swapped. Switching the
active window repaired the taskbar, i.e., the missing qgit window came back and
the icons all got fixed.
