Taskbar buttons can stay ungrouped, and a middle-click can close a window. 7 Taskbar Tweaker changes these and other taskbar behaviors through individual settings.
Set how taskbar buttons are grouped
Choose whether open windows appear in separate taskbar buttons or are grouped together. These controls let you adjust how the taskbar presents open applications without changing their windows.
Assign actions to taskbar clicks
Configure mouse actions for taskbar buttons to match the way you work with open windows. One available behavior is closing a window with a middle-click.
Switch between windows with the mouse wheel
Scrolling over the taskbar can cycle through open windows. This gives you another way to move between applications directly from the taskbar.
