    Disable or remap Alt+Tab when program is active


    Hello,I am wondering if there is a way to disable Alt+Tab when a specific program is active.For example if the Xbox app or a specific game on my windows machine is running, Alt+Tab should be disabled.I could change the behaviour to a different key combination, but I would prefer keeping it on Alt+Tab and only disabling it for specific programs.I know there are third party tools to do this, however I'm wondering if there is a native windows solution.If there is no way to do this, can I place a feature request somewhere?Thanks for the assistance.

    :)

    Command line/tab

    QUESTION/suggestion:
    * Why not remember the last active tab?
    For example, if you are on tab 2 and close the program, then run it again, for the program to open tab 2 again. But if the -tab X command-line option is used, then the program goes to X tab, regardless of last active tab.

    Does that make sense?

    alt-tab stopped working

    It's possible to temporarily remap ALT and TAB keys (remap to little used or unused key) to check if the key is actually broken. If the remapped keys work then it's a keyboard problem. If the remapped keys do not work then the problem lies elsewhere.
