    Close a group of open windows with one click?


    I have my task bar set to not group like items unless I have too many open windows and space becomes a problem.. What I am wondering, has anyone found a way in this format, to say close all open explorer windows, simply by clicking on one of them. Or close all of another programs open windows.. I like having my windows fan out across the bottom rather than grouped together, but I miss being able to close all of one program in a single right click...

Hi all: W7 Home Prem. on Dell XPS, quad core, 4GB. I'm pleased with W7 except that windows seem to open rather slowly, whether maximizing or minimizing, or just opening/closing programs. It's like two seconds; no big thing except I'd prefer they snap open and close as they did in Vista. ...
