The utility below (not one of our products) is able to disable the previews on the Windows taskbar, but I haven't tested it out, so try it at your own risk

Turning off windows preview in the taskbar tab of Displayfusion doesn't seem to have any effect, even when I restart the computer. I've also tried editing the registry directly, but that had no effect either. ]]>
