Short answer: I afraid you can't remove only <2>
or <3>
from appearing. There has to be a way to distinguish windows.
There is a workaround which I like and that is to use an alternate task manager which is available by default on a normal Kubuntu 18.04 system.
First, I see what you see with the default task manager with three Google Chrome windows:
Even with the default task manager, there is a way to collapse the three separate entries into one but I can't get the setting to stick:
That's one reason why I prefer the alternate task manager widget* known as the Icons-only Task Manager:
*Note: to access the available widgets, click on the ☰ icon usually located at the right-end or bottom of your panel.
I also prefer a vertical panel and the images below are with a vertical panel:
Icons-only Task Manager with one Google Chrome window
Icons-only Task Manager with three Google Chrome windows
Notice the little green circle with a white plus-sign next to the Google Chrome icon. That indicates the presence of more than one window open for a particular program. The three entries to the right of the Google Chrome icon are there because I single left-clicked on the icon. I can then select the window I want to maximize (or whatever). Otherwise, those entries are not visible.
