Windows 7 has provided a cool feature with ability to preview taskbar
thumbnails whenever the mouse is hovered on the program icon. However, you may
notice that it does have some latency to display the preview after mouse over
the icon. To speed up the thumbnails preview, you can change the delay time
with simple steps.
The delay time can be change via registry key. Please follow below steps to change it:
1. Go to Start -> Run, then type regedit.
2. Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Mouse.
3. On the right panel, look for MouseHoverTime
and double click on it. Change the value to 0 (in millisecond) then click OK
button to save the changes.
4. Close the registry editor and restart your computer in order to take the effect of the changes.
Once you have completed above steps, you can verify the delay time taken to display the thumbnail preview if it is faster than the previous.
