    Can individual taskbar thumbnails be set to stay on top?


    Can the individual taskbar thumbnails (which appear when you mouse over taskbar apps) be set to stay on top while you're doing other things/working in other apps?

    Pictures do not ALWAYS display as thumbnail preview wIN 10

    For all the time I've had Win10, Pictures file folders and individual pictures have always displayed as thumbnails. In the past couple of weeks they began showing up as just a list of files. I can switch them back to thumbnails but they don't stay thumbnails.

    How do I make thumbnails the default?

    Windows 10 Auto-hide Taskbar and Thumbnails NOT Disappearing

    I see many posts, here and elsewhere, complaining that taskbar thumbnails are not visible, disappear too quickly, or how to disable the thumbnails altogether. My problem is on the other side of the fence: For some reason, my taskbar and thumbnails recently
    started staying visible, even when I am working on another task in another window.

    For instance, suppose I am in a browser, and mouse to the bottom of the display, which causes the taskbar to appear. When I hover the mouse over the Outlook taskbar icon, the Outlook taskbar thumbnail appears. However, when I return to the browser window,
    and operate there, the taskbar and Outlook thumbnail remain visible.

    Is there a setting somewhere that governs this behavior?
