Windows 10: taskbar / taskband combined app tabbed preview too thick

I'm struggling with the taskbar / task band combined app preview tabs being too thick.

Previously I was able to fit about 37-38-39 preview tabs on the stack in 4k.

Now I am unable to fit more than 29-30 and have to scroll through that list.

Does anyone know how to control this height? I am able to have many more stacked tabs on an old Windows 8.1 system with 4k even in "Scale and Layout 200%" mode to make stuff more readable.

"Use small buttons" taskbar / taskband setting really helped get the extra real estate I need on the taskband/taskbar, but I can't find anyway to shrink down the spaced between previewed stacked tabs.

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.

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

 

Sticky Notes Icon on taskbar is not combined

Hi Amit,

Thanks for your quick response. Technically, It does solve the problem of duplicate tabs but it's not exactly what I was hoping for. I'd still like to see the tab labels. Prior to the update, only the Sticky Notes tabs were combined but all other tabs were
not, and all tabs were labeled. I'm still looking for a solution that restores my earlier configuration. I would settle for combined tabs if they had labels. Something in Win 10, version 1903 has changed Sticky Notes.

I appreciate your help.
