Using ALT+Tab I can switch between the open applications but I wonder whether I could CHANGE the ICON of the running application (e.g. I launched MS Word, Excel and something else and each one application has its proper icon, all of them displayed in the screen centre of the screen if only the ALT+Tab is pressed)
