XP will manage the grouping by itself, and usually only groups when there isn't enough space on the bottom taskbar.<br />
<br />
However, the option could be disabled: Right-click the taskbar in a blank area, select Properties. In the Properties box, ensure 'Group similar taskbar buttons' is checled and press OK.<br />

Hello,<br />
<br />
I had WindowsXP reinstalled, and now all my settings are gone.<br />
<br />
I used to have all similar programs be grouped into tabs (if multiple windows are opened), now... it's just multiple tabs and not grouped anymore.<br />
<br />
By grouping i mean &nbsp;- if i had multiple InternetExplorer windows opened (typically more than 5), they were all grouped into ONE tab on the bottom, and i could open those windows from there. Similar with the 'File Explorer&quot; - they were all grouped into one tab...<br />
<br />
Any help would be appreciated.<br />
<br />
Thank You!

How to group multiple open windows into tabs?

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
