    Tooltips showing too long on Windows 10 taskbar


    On my laptop, which I just reinstalled with 1909, when I hover over an icon, and move it away about .3 seconds later, the tooltip shows up after I move the mouse away, and stays there for a few seconds. It's pretty annoying. Anyone know how to disable that? On my other PC, it always just shows the window that is open, but on my laptop it shows the tooltip. I think it's maybe when the system returns from hibernation? But I'm not sure

    Windows 10 Pro Taskbar tooltips and font color


    This is the actual functionality I was asking about. It can be accomplished with W7+ Taskbar tweaker, but I was wondering if somebody knows a registry tweak.

    When folders are combined on the taskbar, I want to see a list, like in Windows 7, not the stupid preview.

    How To Increase TaskBar ToolTip Character Amount

    Hello, I've heard from before that you can increase the amount of characters shown in a ToolTip from a System Tray Icon. As you can see in the attached picture that this information shown is not complete (it cuts out halfway in the third email listed, yet there are currently 5 emails total). I want it to show all the text information that the ToolTip is intending to show. Does anyone know the Registry modification that I need to do to fix this? Thanks
