Alternative for Cmd + Tab + Q

Hi,

In Mac, you can open the equivalent to Windows Task view by pressing and holding Cmd, and then pressing Tab.

In Windows, you press and hold Alt + Tab to open Windows Task view (press and hold Alt, then press Tab, but I'll call this "press and hold Alt + tab" for clarity's sake).

Now, in Mac, when Task view is open (Cmd + Tab), you can press Q to close the (in Task view) highlighted application.

My question: is there an alternative to that in Windows?

Question reformulated: if I press and hold Alt + Tab to open Task view, can I then press another, third key, to close the highlighted application (while remaining in Task view)?

PS: I know I can use Alt + F4 to close an application, but this doesn't work to close an application while in Task view.

Hi Dave,

Alt+Tab is replace by Task view.

Use this feature to do multiple tasks and check if it helps.

Hope this information helps, for further assistance please reply.
