I know you can change the color of the outline, but I'm not certain about a way to change the thickness.
The color can be changed from Settings > Personalization > Color > Accent Color.

When using Alt+Tab is there any way to make the "selected window" line, a bit bolder or noticeable? its hard to see which one is the selected one.

Just to let you know, I could not change or see my level of Insider participation and found out that if I open CMD as Admin, then enter
bcdedit /set flightsigning on
The options to change insider channel becomes available again, and from there I opted for Beta... and am now downloading another version, hopefully with the new Alt-Tab look!!!!
Thanks for the help.
Mark.

Hi, yep, thanks, I did see that earlier, and was curious about the fact that for you, changing accents changes the outline colour of these thumbnails, but for me, no matter what accent colour I choose, the thumbnail outline is always black, much thinner.
I'm also baffled as to why I get this X in my insider programme settings, and clicking on the "troubleshooting insider builds" link takes me to a windows10 insider page on microsoft! So odd.
