    Alt-tab Delay


    Hi all,


    I'm not sure if I posted this before, but I've been having this minor annoyance for a while now. When I use Alt-Tab to switch between windows, there is a 1.5-2 second delay. Since I switch apps a lot, it gets really annoying. I've read that this issue can be linked to Focus mode, but turning that off has no effect. Any help would be appreciated.


    Thanks!

    :)

    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.
