    Alt-Tab doesn't alternate between last 2 used windows


    Is there anyway of Alt-Tabbing between the last 2 used windows with the simple button combo?Previous versions of Windows you could quickly switch between 2 in-use windows by repeatedly pressing Alt-Tab eg Window A, Alt-Tab -> Window B, Alt-Tab -> Window A, Alt-Tab -> Window B. Holding down Alt and repeatedly pressing Tab would cycle through various other open windows.For some reason, when pressing Alt-Tab, Windows 11 takes me to a window which it has placed in position 1 of the currently open windows, NOT my most recently used window Window A, Alt-Tab -> Window B, Alt-Tab ->
