Taskbar Thumbnail Previews
Has anybody found a way to eliminate the thumbnail previews on
the taskbar? The only workaround I have found is to increase the value of MouseHoverTime in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Mouse to some large number. Setting it to 10000 delays the appearance of those thumbnails for 10 seconds, but it affects other things, like jump lists. -- Dave |

Untick the 'Use Aero to preview the desktop'. Jetta |

I've tried it on my box and it says 'Vista only' by the setting. Sorry about that. As it is available in Vista there might be a registry hack that would work on Win7. If I find anything I'll post back. |
