I just had my computer do a windows update to build number 22000.1335. This was a big update with many little things changing (can't hide volume and network icons, Open Shell broke, etc). I have fixed most or will live with the rest.
One last item - I had set the taskbar to NOT group icons of identical programs (i.s. - I like to see separate taskbar icons for the 5 excel spreadshhets that are open). My fix had been through the registry keys (HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer and KLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer) with a DWORD (NoTaskGrouping) set to 1.
Interestingly, the HKLM key was deleted with the windows update. I re-added the lost key and rebooted but my taskbar icons are still grouped.
Anybody have any ideas?
