option to not hide other windows on hover over thumbnail preview
Would it be possible to get an option to option to not hide other windows on hover over thumbnail preview?
At church we use (powerpoint) presentations a lot (songs) and if I try to do stuff in the background the thumbnail preview hides everything including the presentation (on extended 2nd screen). I use 7tt to ungroup so I can avoid the thumbnails, and more recently the tooltip option so there is no chance of accidental mouse-over.
It would be good if I could use thumbnails but without the hiding as just having tooltips is a bit harder to use

I remember that it was possible to disable the hover preview in Windows 7 from the system settings. Now I found these threads: one, two. One of the comments mentions about one of the solutions that it doesn't work on Windows 10 anymore, so it might not work for you. Try it out, and hopefully one of the linked answers will help you.
Looks like I got something to work.
Control Panel -->System --> Advanced System Settings --> Advanced tab --> Settings --> Visual Effects --> Enable Peek
wasn't doing anything for me (I just checked now on my brothers system and it works right away?)
*** on a multi user system (limited account) it seems: "Start --> Adjust the appearance and performance of Windows" is the proper place to apply the setting. the 2 paths remember different sets of checked options (the 1st requires admin permission, while the 2nd doesn't, so maybe the 1st path is changing the setting for the admin account not the actual logged in one?) ***
but after I applied "adjust for best performance" and then went back to "let windows choose ..." and disabled "enable peek"
now the setting works, the thumbnails show but hovering doesn't do anything. (in light of the above edit *** I'm not sure if this actually does anything)
It might be nice if it still previewed the window but without hiding anything else but this is more than good enough.
Anyway I really love 7tt on both my home and church systems,
Thanks
