Windows 10: How to OPEN Programs in Taskbar Preview WITHOUT Clicking ??

@Triliuner I'm sorry to hear it's not as simple as that.

When you have multiple windows opened from a single application e.g. 2 separate windows from Chrome, do they show up as previews when you hover over Chrome's icon in the taskbar, or as a list? Just asking to clarify that, they are at least showing as previews. If not, this should help: Change Taskbar Thumbnail Threshold to Show List in Windows 10 Windows 10 Tutorials

As for the different windows not showing when you hover your mouse over a preview, maybe it has something to do with the delay, see here: Change Delay Time to Show Taskbar Thumbnails in Windows 10 Windows 10 Tutorials (restoring the default value)

I hope that helps, if not, maybe others can suggest some other things to try..

 

Hi All *Smile
yesterday I tried to use "game booster" program from asus, which disabled some visual effects from windows.
and after that I disable the "game booster" program. and restart my pc. but some visual effects in my windows do not come back to normal

one of the disappearing features is, where when I open the taskbar preview, and when I point my mouse(hover) into the preview, then the program will move / open automatically without having clicked.

for example just like in this video
How To Disable TaskBar Thumbnails Preview Peek In Windows 10 - 2018 - YouTube
see minute 2:10 - 2:20
and I want the feature turned ON.

I've tried several ways, but it did not work. some tips I've tried :

this is my pc setting :



Thank you for your attention *Wink

Restore all file explorer windows from taskbar

Thanks for your response but this is not what I wanted.

I want to be able to bring all file explorer windows to the front with a single click on the taskbar icon without having to open each window from the preview in taskbar. For example I have two side by side windows (split screen). Then I go to another program.
I want to bring the two windows up without having to select each one separately.

 

Clicking on taskbar previews of programs temporarily freezes Windows Explorer in Windows 10

When I hover over an icon on my taskbar, Windows 10 shows me a preview of the windows that are currently open in that program. However, if I click on one of those previews quickly, Windows Explorer freezes for 2-4 seconds, then comes back, but not on the
program that I selected. Clicking on the preview works properly if I hover over the preview for a couple seconds before clicking on it. What's going on? Why is Windows so slow?

 

This may be a silly suggestion, but have you tried unchecking "Enable Peek", clicking "Apply", and then checking it again and clicking "Okay"? I've had a similar issue with Folder Options, and managed to fix it this way

 

yes i've tried itbut still not working *Sad
