    Alt+tab doesn't work all of the sudden!


    Hey, alt+tab stopped working. I can alt+tab outside of a game, but I can't alt+tab back. Also when I click on panel it doesn't alt+tab back, game is responding tho - I mean in task manager. Same happens even for some 2d programs. I can't bring it up by alt+tab, or clicking on taskbar. - SFC/DISM found nothing! - no new updates were installed - I tried to clean install GPU drivers using DDU - memtest found nothing 4 pass only tho, also Windows Memory Diagnostic found nothing How perplexing, anyone has idea what could cause this and focus assist is off!

    :)

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

    alt + tab not working

    Alt+Tab only works if there is something in the background to switch to. If there is nothing to switch to (the game that has focus is the only thing running), the command isn't executed.
