To actually turn it off, you have to go to the registry or edit the local security policy. User Account Control is a different beast in Windows 10 and you can’t even fully disable it via the traditional GUI interface you see above. Go ahead and create a new 32-bit Dword called LastActiveClick and give it a value of 1.
Navigate to the following key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced Of course, you could just press the ALT + TAB key combo, but this is useful if you always end up using the mouse rather than the keyboard. With this hack, when you click on the icon for a program with multiple instances open, it will take you straight to the last active window. However, when you click on the icon in the taskbar to get back to Word or Excel, instead of taking you straight to the window you were on previously, it just shows you a small thumbnail image of all the windows. Have you ever had several windows of the same application open, like Word or Excel, and then had to click over to a different application like Chrome? This is probably one of my favorite little hacks for Windows 10. Check out our previous post below.Ĭhange Desktop Icon Spacing in Windows 10 Click to Last Active Window Thanks Microsoft for getting rid of the options to customize our desktop! What used to be so easy is now a registry hack! In order to change the desktop icon spacing (horizontal and vertical), you have to edit two values in the registry. Now when you right-click on the desktop, you’ll see Notepad and clicking on that will open Notepad! Nice!
