    Alt+tab is ruined


    How can I get it back t working like it used to until a month ago? Because as it stands, alt+tabbing once does not always switch between the two recent windows. Sometimes it brings in a third window that was not even used for a while.


    For example, I can alt+tab back and forth between Edge and Store by alt_tabbing once at a time. Also, imagine I have another window for Mail, which is not only minimised, but also hasn't been opened for some time. Now I'm switching between Edge and Store comfortably. All of a sudden, when I alt+tab from Store, instead of going to Edge, the Mail window opens up. Why? Just why? I cannot even imagine any reason for such a thing to be a "feature". Is this a bug?

    :)

    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.
