    Alt + Tab shortcut doesn't work on W11


    I recently formatted my laptop and Alt + Tab is no longer working, nothing happens at all and it's like i'm just pressing 'Tab'.

    LAST USED WINDOW SHORTCUT ? not ALT-TAB BUT

    So Thank you dekayed it all works. I have noticed when in EDGE I can not crlt Tab back to Chrome but ALT TAB functions to go from Chrome To Edge. But these shortcuts are working. I have a list of WINDOWS 10 EXPLORER shortcuts but these you shared were not in the list that I found. These shortcuts you shared must be in a different category of shortcuts. Im thinking I need to read some kind of windows 10 manual or watch a tutorial on windows 10

    alt + tab not working

    Alt-Tabbing in & out of games does not always work. It can also crash games in some cases.
