    Alt tab breaking applications


    I tried to play srb2 today, but alt-tab would break the game. And my start menu won't work, as well as explorer. And right-click. Please can someone help me with this?

    Alt+Tab to swith between different applications

    I used Alt+Tab to swith between different applications. Post Windows 10, I have to press Enter to select that app from the popup window. How can this additional step be avoided?

    Alt/Tab has changed


    I recently upgraded from W7 to W10. On W7 alt/tab would expand each open application window such that they were full size when alt/tab'd or mouse'd over to it. But on W10 they do not show full size unless you bring the app into focus by releasing alt/tab. I suspect MS did that because on W7 they had a bug whereby the list of open icons would fall behind current windows. But that was fixed with with a 3rd party app (AltTabFixOnce.exe).

    Does anyone know how to get back the W7 form of alt/tab?
