How do I change, seeing all firefox tabs when holding mouse on firefox icon in win10 taskbar, into only seeing firefox windows?

When I hover over the firefox icon in the win10 taskbar all tabs are shown. That is quite a mess in everyday use. When I work with several Windows I don't know which of the tabs are in which window. Therefore, I'd be happy if it would be changed back or if I get instructions on how tochange that.

I would like to change it back so that only firefox windows (not each tab) are shown.

Thank you

At the General page in the Settings there is a checkbox, called Show tab previews in the Windows taskbar. Please refer to this knowledge base article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/startup-home-page-tabs-download-settings

This should fix your issue.
