  1. Taskbar arranging open windows not default


    I really need to be able to arrange my open all my file icons by project and not by programs. I need to have for Project A - Excel Word Putty side by side and then Project B - Explorer Word Putty UltraCompare side by side and so on NOT by program all excel side by side, all putty side by side. Windows 10's default is VERY inefficient for what I need. HELP me please!!!!

  2. Is there is any setting to re-arrange taskbar?

    Hi Jaikishan,

    Please be informed, there is no such setting in Windows 10 to "re-arrange taskbar". This is how it is designed by default.

    I suggest you to post your feedback in Windows 10 feedback app.

    In future, if you have any issues related to Windows 10, do get back to us. We will be happy to assist you.

    Regards,

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Taskbar arranging open windows not default

    Lost default photo viewer after profile rebuild

    Thanks Brink. I've tried those steps before i started searching Google. After the profile rebuild i don't have the Photo app listed to choose to make it default in either the system settings for default apps or the Open With option.

    I can't even find it doing a search. Seems to have been removed somehow with the profile rebuild, which doesn't make sense.

    Might be helpful to list what i've done Taskbar arranging open windows not default :) I've done the open with check, the choose default program in the system menu, tried that in device manager default programs also. I've checked the programs and features Turn windows features on/off and it's not listed there (never thought it was but that was a suggestion), searched the MS Store, it's not listed there either.

    I don't like playing in the registry unless i have defined steps and haven't found anything for this yet, just the Win7 version like in my OP.
