Sorry if this is in the wrong area...I just can never figure out where to put a question. Seems like this should be under a User Interface heading.

You know the "Group similar taskbar buttons" setting you get to by right-clicking on your Taskbar and selecting Properties? Is there another place that this setting can be applied or (un-applied? :eek: ).

I can't get them to stop grouping.

Thanks.
 
With Tweak Ui you can modify this setting. Or directly in the registry: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced - TaskbarGroupSize
 
Thanks, yoyo. I didn't fully understand my problem when I posted that question.

I think I'm more in need of finding out where I can make a setting change. The problem is more like this:

Right now my Taskbar is displaying the opened windows to the right of it, with up and down arrows to select the window I want to maximize or minimize. It's not the "Group Similar taskbar Buttons" option in the Taskbar Options. That displays itself totally different.
 
I have never seen such a behaviour. Are you running any third party applications? Perhaps you could post a little screenshot of it.
 
Don't know if my attaching the screen shot will work or not.

This and a couple of other goofy things started happening when I downloaded, and then uninstalled Windows Media Player beta.
 
I figured it out. I unlocked my Taskbar, and then slid the dotted line to the left-side of it. I guess when it's to the right it looks like this.

Thanks, yoyo.:)

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
