Who Needs Animated Windows?
When you open a window in NT 4.0, the window seems to fly out of the taskbar. And when you close a window, it shrinks back into the taskbar. If you'd like to do without this particular feature, you can use RegEdit to eliminate it.
As usual, we need to caution you to be careful when fooling around with the Registry--you can do a lot of damage if you make a mistake.
Run RegEdit and navigate to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics
Double-click on the WindowMetrics folder and then choose Edit|New|String Value. Name your new string MinAnimate. After you create MinAnimate, double-click on it and set its value to 0 (zero). Exit RegEdit and restart the computer.
