Add option to disable "minimize window" when clicking already active window
Because of the bad design of Windows7/8 UI the active window is hard to see on the taskbar. There is just not enough difference between the active window and all the other windows currently visible. (I usually have 10-12 windows opened at the same time.)
It would be great if you could add an option to disable the minimization of any window when being clicked on the taskbar. This still leaves the option to minimize the window by clicking the minimize button on the top right window border.

That's already possible by using advanced options.
Open the Advanced Options Editor (more details), and add the following value to Mouse Button Control:
Name: taskbaritem|lclick
Value: 1
See the help file for more details.

I had no luck finding the Advanced Options Editor on Win 10. But I managed to add the necessary registry entry manually. Worked great. My donation is on the way.
Add this. . . Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\7 Taskbar Tweaker\Mouse Button Control\taskbaritem|lclick
and give it the value 1
