There are three options for customizing taskbar buttons in Windows 7:
- Always combine, hide labels
- Combine when taskbar is full
- Never combine
Existe-t-il un moyen de hide labels and not combine taskbar buttons? Or even better, to exclude only certain applications from combining?
My main problem is that I switch a lot between two instances of a single application, and having to hover over combined icon and then choosing the correct one. Alt-Tabbing is not a good alternative when I'm switching between more than three applications; clicking on taskbar only once is what Je cherche.

It's something of a hack job, but [this might do the trick](http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/21233-taskbar-change-icon-button-width-size.html)! It requires doing a bit of registry editing to shrink la barre des tâches icons so that the labels auto-hide.
**Set taskbar options**
- Open Taskbar properties.
- In the "Taskbar Appearance" group, change the "Taskbar Button" option to "Never combine" si vous ne want stacking.
**Adding/editing le registre entry**
- Appuyez sur Windows Key + R to ouvrez le run command
- Type int "regedit" (without quotes) and press OK
- Allez dans HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics
- Trouvez le "MinWidth" entry.
- If it is not there, clic droit on an empty space et sélectionnez New -> String Value. Name this entry "MinWidth" (without quotes)
- Double-cliquez sur on the MinWidth entry. Si vous voulez just the buttons to show, set this to 38 si vous êtes using small buttons, 52 si vous êtes using large buttons (or 54 in Windows 8). Otherwise any value above 38 will work. If you set a value below 38, the buttons will behave oddly. If your main display (on Windows 8.1 or later) has non-standard DPI (e.g. it's Retina or 4k display) you might need to multiply these numbers by the factor of 1.25, 1.5 or 2. Otherwise buttons will shrink / animate incorrectly.
- Log off and log back in or restart to see the changes.
**Deleting/Uninstalling**
- Appuyez sur Windows Key + R to ouvrez le run command
