Change Taskbar Preview Thumbnail Size in Windows 10

In Windows 10, when you hover over a taskbar button of a running app or group of apps, a thumbnail preview appears on the screen. For a single window it shows a single thumbnail, and for multiple windows it shows a number of thumbnail previews in a row. If you wish to enlarge or decrease these thumbnails in Windows 10, I will explain how it can be done with a simple Registry tweak.


As you may be aware, Windows 7 introduced a redesigned taskbar which abandoned much loved classic features but introduced some nice improvements like large icons, jump lists, draggable buttons etc. Windows 10 comes with the same taskbar. It does not have many configurable settings exposed in the GUI to tweak its behavior but there are some hidden secret Registry settings which you can fine-tune. In this article, we will see how to change the taskbar thumbnail hover delay in Windows 10.

When you hover over the taskbar button of an open app, it will show you a small thumbnail preview of its window. See the following screenshot:

Taskbar Thumbnails Windows 10

It is possible to adjust the size of these thumbnails. Here is how.

To change the taskbar preview thumbnail size in Windows 10, do the following:

  1. Open Registry Editor.
  2. Go to the following Registry key:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Taskband

    Tip: You can access any desired Registry key with one click.

  3. Here, modify or create a new 32-bit DWORD value namedMinThumbSizePx. Note: If you are running 64-bit Windows 10, you still need to create a 32-bit DWORD.
  4. Set its value data in decimals to the number of pixels you want for the size of taskbar thumbnail previews. For example, you can set it to 400 pixels as shown below.Windows 10 Taskbar Thumbnail Size
  5. Modify or create the MaxThumbSizePx 32-bit DWORD value and set it to the same value.
  6. Restart the Explorer shell or sign out and sign in back to Windows 10.

This will change the taskbar preview thumbnail size in Windows 10. See screenshots below.
Before:

After:

You are done.

To restore the defaults, just delete the above mentioned MinThumbSizePx and ManThumbSizePx values. Don't forget to restart the Explorer shell.

Take Ownership a folder

Change ownership recursively:

To change the ownership of a folder, its subfolders, and files in each subfolder, use this syntax:

takeown /f <foldername> /r /d y

The currently logged on user is now the owner of the folder.

To set Administrators group the owner of the folder, its subfolders, and files recursively, use the /A switch in addition:

TAKEOWN /F <foldername> /a /r /d y
  • /R Recurse: instructs the tool to operate on files in the specified directory and all subdirectories.
  • /D prompt Default answer used when the current user does not have the “list folder” permission on a directory. This occurs while operating recursively (/R) on sub-directories. Valid values “Y” to take ownership or “N” to skip.

Assign Folder Permissions

Then to assign the Administrators group Full Control Permissions for the folder, use this syntax:

icacls <foldername> /grant administrators:F /T

The /T parameter is added so that the operation is carried out through all the sub-directories and files within that folder.

Error 0xc0000005

 

Error 0xc0000005: the application was unable to start

This situation is no less common than the first one.

So, where should you start?

  1. 1. As in case 1, you should check for viruses at the beginning. Perhaps that is the root of your problem!
  1. 2. Fix registry.

You can resolve the 0xc0000005 in Windows error by fixing the registry errors.

Pay attention! Fixing the registry is not a simple action on your computer. Doing in wrong may lead to severe damage of your files! So, if you can, use the backed up version of your registry files to solve the problem. If you don’t have backups of your registry files, you need to create them before you do anything to them!

Corrupt registry files can lead to a ton of errors in Windows, and the 0xc0000005 error is one of them. To fix error code 0xc0000005, you need to perform these steps:

  •  Press Win + R to open Run window and type ‘regedit’. Hit Enter.
  •  In the registry, you need to follow this path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows\LoadAppInit_DLLs
  •  Double-click on LoadAppInit_DLLS (REG_DWORD file type) and change values from 0 to 1.
  •  Click on OK and confirm the changes. Reboot the system.

Print Spooler not start


 Print Spooler will not just stop for any reason.

The print spooler is set up to restart 5 times after a failure. If the spooler continues to fail, there is an underlying issue causing it to fail.

Go to: c:\windows\system32\spool\printers

Delete all files inside this folder.

Try and restart the spooler and monitor the event log to see if it is still failing.

If it is still failing, the issue is a corrupt printer driver.

Go to: c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers

If your OS is 32 Bit go to : W32X86

If your OS is 64 bit go to : x64

*WARNING - THIS WILL DELETE ALL INSTALLED PRINTERS*

Delete all files in this folder and reinstall your printer.
