  1. Taskbar Thumbnail Preview Acting Weird


    Hi, I'm a minor that just wanted to know what was going on. My operating system is Windows 10 Home.


    Usually, when you scroll your cursor over a taskbar icon, it shows a little picture, or thumbnail, of what it is if it's open. My problem is that sometimes, when I do this, it just shows the name of the icon or the file location, not the thumbnail. The text also won't immediately go away when I move my cursor, and the icon stays lit it's doing it as I type this.


    It's kind of annoying. I didn't want to have to come here but I couldn't find the exact problem without being led to an outdated Windows 7 solution.

    :)

  2. Disable Taskbar Thumbnail Preview?

    Hey there,

    I was just searching the internet for ways to disable the Taskbar Thumbnail Preview in Windows 10, and I found one that half-worked (only some apps use list view instead of thumbnails). I was wondering if there was a way to completely disable the preview?
    I am alright editing the registry.

    Thanks,

    Pointy

    I want to remove the preview also then I used Taskbar Thumbnails Tuner to achieved it. Although it said it is working on Windows 7 and 8 only, I have tested it is also working on Windows 10. The step is simple:

    1. Click "Disable Thumbnails"
    2. Click "Apply"

    No need to restart or logout to take effect
