It worked. It’s just that I set it to 10,000 and now it takes ~1 and 5 secs to show up, not 10 seconds.

For me it’s find, I don’t want that feature

“3. Create a new DWORD (32-bit) value named ExtendedUIHoverTime”

Um, not to be completely ludite, but… how?
I know that I can really foul up regedit if i do this wrong, so a bit more hand-holding would be appreciated, please.

right click on computer > advanced system settings > advanced tab > performance settings > uncheck/check ‘enable desktop composition’

This will disable/enable preview of windows on the taskbar.
