Alt + tab no longer switches to last window in Windows 11

Anonymous

Hi all,

One of the most useful shortcuts I use all the time is not working for me on my new laptop with Windows 11. I used to use ALT + TAB to switch between the current window and the last window I used. Now if I use it it switches between the current window and the first open window (not the most recent). How can I get it so it switches between the two most recently used?

How's the above now, Josh? I edited to add image, there must have been an upload issue before I apologise.

Just blatantly ignoring the question and randomly typing random **** doesn't help anyone, "Delighted Andrey".

i found the solution! You MUST leave your Windows Explorer on the first screen only, if you got two monitors. and you must close all other open windows on the 2nd screen. Then on your first screen, make sure only 2 open windows are active to make the switch work.
