Merge icons in the taskbar

Solved

Hello,
Something has changed recently on my computer and I don’t know why. At the bottom of my taskbar, I have my few icons: Word, Excel, Firefox, Outlook, etc. For example. Before, when I opened an Excel page (or Word, or Outlook), the icon was highlighted because a page was open. Now it adds a second Excel icon (or Word or Outlook) next to the first one, and I don’t know how to "remerge" them.
Can someone help me?

Thanks :)

Configuration: Windows / Firefox 61.0

    Hello,

    Simple: Right-click > Unpin from taskbar on the inactive icon that remains in place.
    Then right-click > Pin to taskbar on the icon of your open software.

    This should fix your double icon issue in the future for this application.

    Have a nice day!

      Thank you for your prompt response Husman60, but it does not offer me "pin to taskbar" on the active icon (new Outlook message, or Excel file)
      And it does not remove the Excel or Outlook software icon from the taskbar;..
