    the bigger problem is that if I have a lot of things open then it hides after 16 windows the new windows. I see no option to change that. IN W10 it worked, you could see all the windows - now they hide them and I must make extra clicks to open them. Is there a fix? Because this is ridiculous!

    I'm wondered why everyone gives a positive feedback. Did you really try what's shown in this video or did you just give positive feedback without trying? This video shows the wrong command. "cd.." should be "cd .." So after 'cd' there must be a space. If you follow the instructions in this video nothing happens when you write "cd.." 🙂
