Speed Up Windows 7 Taskbar Navigation

1. Launch regedit.exe (Win+R, then paste regedit.exe)

2. Navigate in the left tree control to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced

3. Go to Edit -New - DWORD (32-bit) Value

4. Name the value LastActiveClick

5. Hit enter to assign the value and change it to 1

6. Restart Explorer and you're good to go.

To restart Explorer without rebooting, open the Task Manager Ctrl+Shift+Esc and end the Explorer.exe process. Then create a new task under File and paste explorer.exe.

Hope you find this useful
