    Selecting multiple windows in taskbar


    Hello,

    I've recently migrated from Windows XP Pro to Win 7 Ent and now I see that it's not possible to Ctrl+Click on taskbar to select multiple windows and then e.g. close them all via context menu.

    I'm wondering if this is something that can be configured in Win 7 just like it worked in Win XP?

    I don't need to close all open windows, but say I have 20 windows and want to close some 10 of them - in XP I'd select each one by Ctrl+Left Click and then right click - "Close" in context menu.

- used to? I like the old style, where you can see all windows seperately on the taskbar. Now, with W7, all windows are in one "pane" (for lack of a better way of putting it), and it's kind of annoying when you have 6, and 7 winows oepn. Is there a way to revert back to the old behaviour?...
