If you have ‘Aero’ enabled in your Windows 7 then you should be familiar with the Taskbar Thumbnails of opened programs when you hover your mouse over minimized program on the taskbar. But if you carefully notice you’ll find that there’s a slight delay in the appearance of the thumbnail preview of the minimized program, no matter how fast your computer is. Here is the trick or registry hack to make the preview pane appear a little faster.

1. Click start menu and type ‘regedit‘ and press enter.

2. Browse to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced

3. Right-click to create a new DWORD and name it “ExtendedUIHoverTime”

4. Double-click on the newly created DWORD value, choose ‘Decimal‘ from the options and put “1” in the value field.

6. Logoff your user account and logon again to see the changed effect. You’ll notice a quicker response of thumbnail previews.
