Windows 10: Keyboard shortcuts in "Open Task view" mode - navigation throughout multiple screens

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,when "Open Task view" is opened using "Windows logo key + Tab" shortcut I can navigate with the arrows through the open windows on the primary monitor.Which keyboard shortcut can be used for switching from the primary display to another while being in the "Open Task view" mode?Is there other keyboard shortcut while navigation on the primary display with the arrow buttons in the "Open Task view", besides closing the selected application with "Ctrl + W"?Best Regards,Dimitar Lazarevski

How can I switch between monitors by keyboard shortcuts in task view

Sorry for language mistakes. I will give an example. I have two monitors and on each screen i open two programs. When i press “win + tab” (task view mode) i have two programs on the left monitor and two on the right. I can choose each program by arrows from right monitor but how choose program from left monitor ? i mean choose program by keyboard shortcut specifically in “task view mode” not by alt + tab.

 

Task View - Keyboard shortcut to access items on another display

Win+Tab to open the Task View, then Ctrl+Tab (or Ctrl+Backtab) to do some high level navigation in that view soon gets you to a thumbnail for a task on the other monitor, then navigate to the one you want, then switch to
it. Otherwise use the Alt+Tab view. Notice that we are no longer restricted to pressing and holding Alt- and just using Tab (or Backtab) to go through the list sequentially. E.g. since the tasks are listed in an array we can navigate to
them using whatever sequence of Cursor key moves is the quickest.

BTW in case the default highlighting of the elements which are being given keyboard focus by your navigation you may find it useful to turn on Narrator (Win+Ctrl+Enter) and use its blue boxes to supplement those cues.
