Can I group taskbar icons

Is there a way to group taskbar icons on windows 10? Probably via 3rd party software?

For example a group for office-programs, one for IDEs, one for several browsers and so on.

I think of a concept similar to ios and android, where you can group icons too by creating folders.


Solution 1:

The best way is to create shortcuts to everything you need. Place them in a folder, and then create a new toolbar on the task bar. Works fairly well for me.

P.S. Right click the task bar and see the toolbars options. The rest is fairly simple.

Solution 2:

One solution is to use a seperate dock. This is a free solution that I am using on Windows Server 2012 and it works totally fine:

Although this is totally separate from the taskbar so it might not work for you.
