    Alt tab thingy won't go away f17829f6-50e6-4b9a-a50d-bb60490281ce?upload=true.jpg Sometimes the touch pad on my wacom tablet turns on by itself while I'm drawing and brings up this alt tab looking window that just won't go away unless I restart my computer. Is there away to restart or shut down this tab in task manager?

    What is the "magic" of alt+tab?

    Ok, so I was still doing the alt+tab thingy, used to it *Stick Out Tongue Alt tab thingy won't go away :p Just now I tried the game without doing it and it was smooth now without alt+tabbing using the 372.54 driver.
    It must have been a driver thing then, I was using 368.39 all the time before this latest driver.

    ALT + TAB Not switching on release


    Hi,

    I've been having a bit of trouble with Windows the last few days, which has to to lead me to reinstall it over my current windows. Just mentioning it in case it might be relevant.

    But my problem is that I'm used to having to press ALT+TAB and it would display the open programs, and when I release the combo, it would switch me to the program. But now I've noticed that when I press ALT+TAB, and release the combo, the little UI thingy still stays open and I either need to click the choice or press enter or something. And this is really annoying since I switch programs on a regular basis and this extra step feels unnecessary.

    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.
