    Alt+Tab acting flaky


    So my Alt-Tab is possessed or something. Usually it works fine, but periodically, it decides that when I open the menu with Alt+Tab, sometimes it will scroll one way through open windows, and sometimes the other way. This isn't a huge deal, but the bigger issue is that sometimes releasing the keys to select a window or app doesn't switch to that program. It just sits at the task switcher menu, and I have to actually click on the app to activate it. After a few frustrating minutes, it will go back to working properly. Any idea what's up? I'm on version 1909 build 18363.1049

    alt + tab not working

    Just found a really cool way to make alt+tab INSTANT!!!

    In the launch options write the following: -windowed -noborder

    This play exactly the same as fullscreen but now you dont have to wait 30 f*@!ing seconds to alt+tab back in!

    Also you don't get the little purple/black checkered effect (only in Source games) from alt+tabbing in fullscreen.

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