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.

The only solution at the moment is to join the preview program and get on the BETA cycle... then your updates will allow thicker and any coloured lines... MUCH better!!!

I wish it was coming faster but right now the only solution is to either wait for the update or join the preview program to get the update a few months early.

One alternative that might be okay temporarily while you wait, try the Windows Key+Tab instead of Alt+Tab. That brings up a similar task switcher but with much larger previews so you can visually see and click the one you want.

alt - tab my problem too. The Settings --> Personalization --> Colors does not affect the border when tabbing through the windows. Pretty debilitating default to be stuck with. I just can't see what window is highlighted with the thin black line. Help!??
