Not even Microsoft support knows it really.I AM NOT ASKING HOW TO HINDER WINDOWS 10 FROM COMBINING BUTTONS ON TASKBAR!But I am asking how to HINDER WINDOWS FROM GROUPING THE BUTTONS WHICH ARE NOT COMBINED. Please read carefully before you answer, because this site is full of this misunderstanding!!If there is a registry entry which needs to be changed, also good!

Problem with a combine taskbar icons.

Hello,

In Windows 10, you can personalize the settings of your taskbar. If there are multiple applications opened, same applications will be combined under one taskbar button. If you want to change this setting, we suggest that you follow the steps listed below:

• Press the Start button.
• Click on the Settings app.
• Select Personalization.
• At the left side of your window, click on Taskbar.
• Under Combine taskbar buttons, choose Never.

Kindly update us with the results and if you have further queries, feel free to post back.

For more understandable I've attached a figures below.

I'd like to have it in the right figure(showing the window of program not just a title)

Im sorry for my bad English, thanks in advance

 

Different Applications Combined in Taskbar

Sometimes I find that Internet Explorer, Notepad, and File Explorer are combined under one group of buttons on my Taskbar. Sometimes the Notepad (spiral notebook) icon is used, sometimes the File Explorer (folder) icon is used, and sometimes I see the Internet
Explorer e icon with the golden loop. This seems to occur after I connect to this workstation via Remote Desktop from my laptop. Is there a service or task I can restart to redraw the taskbar? I've tried killing and restarting explorer.exe, but it still
combines these three applications in one stack of buttons in the Taskbar.

I have not noticed this behavior with any other applications, including calculator, wordpad, various Office products, Chrome, Firefox, Adobe Reader, and many other third-party applications.

Anybody seen this behavior, or know how to fix it?
