Windows 10: Sort taskbar folder thumbnails?

I've a vague feeling I may have asked this before, and if so my apologies, although I cannot find it after a brief search.

This is what I see during a busy session when I hover over the FE folder icon in my taskbar.





(Or a vertical list, if there are more than 16 folders open, I think.)

In either case, is there a way to get these sorted alphabetically please?

:)

 

Taskbar Thumbnails


Hello Joe, *Smile

It looks like you may have set your taskbar thumbnails threshold too low by mistake.

Check to see what you have for the NumThumbnails DWORD value, and adjust as/if needed.

Sort File Explorer Folders on Taskbar


Is it possible to sort the file explorer folders on the taskbar ? On my PC, when I have 5 or more folders, they appear in a vertical list (see attached). Every time I restart windows I run a batch file that opens my "standard file explorer folders" minimized to the Taskbar. So I can easily switch to the desired folder. As I use the PC, sometimes the folders become unsorted. Thanks

 

Folder thumbnails on taskbar?

I think so!

Increase thumbnail size and/or speed up Mouse Hover Delay to show tooltip immediately.
