    Vanishing taskbar thumbnails in Win 10


    Hello.
    I have this new PC. I am new user on Windows 10.
    The problem is that thumbnails/previews on taskbar of opened windows (folders, programs, pictures,.....) - the thumbnail/preview vanishes after 1-2 hours.
    The thumbnail and preview of real open window is replaced with just an icon.
    I have to open particular window to get the thumbnail and preview back.

    I made two screenshots of a problem/bug: (I AM NOT SURE IF IT IS CALLED THUMBNAIL)

    Disable Taskbar Thumbnail Preview?

    I do not understand how unpinning helps to solve the thumbnail problem?! Once you start an application it is there in the taskbar and I do not want to see the thumbnails flooding the space. Also, I do not want to do a long mouse run along the taskbar to
    select a thumbnail, I used to run the vertical list of app instances and that was more convenient in Win 7. Please give me back this option.
