How to order windows of the same program on taskbar



Windows 10 Taskbar Arrangement

One of the great features of Windows 10 is the ability to arrange the taskbar so that it is organized in the way that best suits your needs. This article will provide a step-by-step guide to help you arrange the taskbar to make it easier to work with multiple windows of the same program.

Step 1: Right-click the taskbar and select “Taskbar Settings.”

Step 2: Scroll down to the section labeled “Combine taskbar buttons.” This section allows you to select the behavior for multiple windows from the same program. Select “Never” if you want each window to appear separately on the taskbar.

Step 3: Scroll down to the section labeled “Taskbar button ordering.” This section allows you to specify how windows of the same program should be ordered on the taskbar. Select “Most recently used” if you want the most recently used window to appear first on the taskbar.

Step 4: Scroll down to the section labeled “Taskbar button sorting.” This section allows you to specify how windows within the same program should be sorted on the taskbar. Select “Alphabetically” if you want windows with the same title to be sorted alphabetically on the taskbar.

Step 5: Scroll down to the section labeled “Taskbar button grouping.” This section allows you to specify how windows within the same program should be grouped on the taskbar. Select “Always combine, hide labels” if you want windows with the same title to be grouped together and the labels hidden.

Step 6: Scroll down to the section labeled “Taskbar button size.” This section allows you to specify the size of the buttons on the taskbar. Select “Large icons” if you want the buttons to be larger and easier to find.

Step 7: Scroll down to the section labeled “Taskbar button appearance.” This section allows you to specify the color of the buttons on the taskbar. Select “Light” if you want the buttons to have a lighter color scheme.

These steps should allow you to arrange your taskbar so that it is easier to work with multiple windows of the same program. With a few simple settings changes, you can make it much easier to keep track of multiple windows and quickly switch between them.
