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?
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
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.
Who ever approved this change is a mo ron. Stop meddling with things you dont understand and leave it up to people who actually do their jobs, because if you were doing a job, you know alt tab is suppose to work the way it was.
Just blatantly ignoring the question and randomly typing random **** doesn't help anyone, "Delighted Andrey".
You're a better man than all those dorks at microsoft for at least figuring out where the bug takes place.
I was with the same problem, and i discovered that anydesk was causing this bug. When i closed anydesk, then alt+tab its working!
