Preview taskbar window.

Hi there,

When I used to minize Firefox, I could maximize it again by simply clicking the Firefox icon down on my windows taskbar. The tab I was on before just popped up.

Now I am forced to choose between all my open Firefox tabs represented as preview windows.

Not sure if this is related to Firefox representing each tab as a new CPU thread.

But I just want to go back to how it used to work, click firefox = maximize firefox, without having to pick and choose the correct tab every time.

Thanks.

Nm, I figured it out myself. It is a Firefox preview setting in options that got checked with an update. Sorry to bother.
