taskbar tweaker for boxing

If you multi-box and you want to click instead of alt-tab to switch instances of EQ, try this:

I use the options "Don't group" and "When not grouping, place new items next to existing ones" to separate the stacked application tiles on the taskbar. SOE broke this a few years ago and it has never been fixed.

You can actually break this with a registry change rather than using a program that injects into explore.exe

Code:

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\eqgame.exe]
 "IsHostApp"=""

Just add that to a file named eq.reg and double click it. Will make explorer not group them with no 3rd party software.

Thanks, that works also.

I've used the taskbar tweaker linked for years, very powerful tool, can do many nice things.

Holy craptacos, i've been looking for a way to fix this for so long! thank you!

The only thing is you forgot the all-important first line of code which makes or breaks the whole thing. Here's what it needs to look like in order to merge into the registry.



Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\eqgame.exe]
"IsHostApp"=""

I use it with my [Unmentioned 3rd Party Software]. I have to have all my accounts in order. Before Taskbar Tweaker, I'd have to reload them all if one crashed.

Sorry about that, Windows isn't my main OS, I just did it in regedit personally and knew it worked. Guess I didn't copy and paste enough

Heh. It's cool. Windows is my main OS. I do desktop support for a living. Nice find with the registry hack.
