Taskbar like in Windows 95/98

I am a Windows user and I would like to try Linux. My primary concern is GUI. I have learned that Zorin GUI is most similar to the Windows one, but I am not sure if it is similar enough. Let's imagine I have just opened three windows of Firefox, two windows of a word processor and one folder. I want my taskbar to look like this:

But definitely not like this:

The former appearance was the only option Windows 95/98. In later versions the latter option was added, but the former option has never been disabled, it was always possible to go back. I want every window to be represented by its own separate icon/button on my taskbar, without any grouping. Is this possible in Zorin OS?

Hi,

it isn't possible that I am aware of in Zorin OS, if you hover over the FireFox icon, you can select a different window but it dose'nt open multiple tabs as shown in your pic!. :D

If you open multiple windows in FF, it shows them as a group!. :D
