Taskbar

For Windows 10 and more recent Windows Server systems, the icons that appear on the taskbar show which applications are currently running. When an application starts additional programs, these additional programs are shown as combined into one icon. You can improve the way you navigate with Laguna by modifying the Windows Taskbar settings. Click on Start button and type Taskbar and select Taskbar Settings. Modify the Combine taskbar buttons value to When taskbar is full.
