  1. Ghost Window on Windows 11: Persistent Issue During Alt+Tab Switching, relataed to Edge...


    Recently, I encountered this issue on my Windows 11 computer: when I press alt+tab to switch windows, this window appears that cannot be clicked clicking has no response. After closing it, it reappears after a while. I also noticed it would play videos with music the volume control shows the sound is coming from Edge WebViewer2. I have now uninstalled both WebViewer2 and Edge, and while it no longer plays sound, this window still persists. This causes lag when I use alt+tab to switch windows. How can I make this non-existent ghost window completely disappear? This problem has been botherin

    :)

    The tabs on Egde aren't switching when I press Alt +Tab

    Hello,

    I'm experiencing an issue with Alt+Tab behavior on Microsoft Edge tabs after changing the settings in Alt+Tab Window under Settings > System > Multitasking > All Tabs in Windows 11. Specifically, the tabs aren't switching when I press Alt+Tab. Has anyone else encountered this problem, and if so, how did you resolve it? I'd greatly appreciate any help or suggestions!"

    Windows 11 Home SL 64Bit

    Microsoft Edge Version 118.0.2088.46 (Official build) (64-bit)

    Alt+Tab Application Switching Issues

    I'm wondering if anyone can help with an issue I've started seeing in the last day or so. There have been no changes to my laptop that I'm aware of that might explain the issue.

    When using alt+tab to switch between open applications, I'm noticing that the screen showing the available windows will occasionally stay in place (as though I've still got the alt key held down), even after I release the alt key. To then switch applications,
    I have to hit enter.

    This is happening intermittently, and I've been able to identify that it's happening only when I'm using a browser that isn't Microsoft Edge. For example, if I have Firefox and Microsoft OneNote open and switch between the two, the app selector will stay
    on the screen on upwards of 50% of my attempts. The same is true when switching between Google Chrome and OneNote (I've also seen the same thing happening when switching between one of these 2 browsers and the file explorer). However, when switching between
    Microsoft Edge and OneNote, there are no issues.

    I've searched through all forums on this subject but can't find a solution. Have also tried a number of steps to try and resolve, including updating drivers, checking for Windows updates, running troubleshooter, and re-installing the browsers, but nothing
    has worked.

    Any help would be appreciated as it's a feature I rely on quite heavily. For reference I'm running Windows 10 Home on a Dell XPS 13 9350.

    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.
