Chrizzly This is why I still use IE. I'm significantly less productive when I have to hunt for which browser window I need to go back to.

HotCakeXI work on multiple topics at the same time and open each topic in a separate browser window to keep them organized. I don't always want to return to the last tab I was viewing. With the current setup, if I have 4 browser windows open, each with 4 tabs, I may have to switch to 4 different windows, and look through all the tabs before I find the one I want. With the IE setup, I had up to about 16 tab previews when I hover over the IE icon on the taskbar and could go directly to the one I want. Having the preview made it easier to deal with more open tabs, not harder. And If it's a screen size/resolution thing, then make it an option. that way people with large screens can enable it. (I don't even work on a huge screen, it's just a 15" 1920x1080 in native resolution 100% scale).

I just remembered something,
you can actually do this, hold SHIFT and click on Edge icon on the taskbar, you will get this
