    Alt-Tab windows on second moniter show up, and then disappear instantly


    When I alt-tab, the menu flashes all the windows for a split-second, and then shrinks down to just the windows on the main monitor.

    I have an ASUS laptop with the Screenpad feature, and I'm wondering if this is something that ASUS has done for some reason, or something else that I can fix?

    The only app that I've found that this doesn't happen to is the Command Prompt - I can have it open on the second monitor and alt-tab to it with no problem.

    I've removed the Screenpad app folder from WindowsApps and uninstalled it, and the problem persists.



    If the reason is because of some ASUS software, how would I go about finding which program is doing it?

    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.
