Windows 10: Lost Ability to Alt+Tab Between Monitors Without Minimizing Windows After Recent Updates

Hi everyone,I've noticed a change in behavior with Alt+Tabbing since a few updates ago. I used to be able to Alt+Tab from a maximized window such as a game on my main screen to a window on my second monitor without the maximized window minimizing. Now, whenever I do that, the maximized window on the first monitor&nbs

Opening a Minimized Window with Alt+Tab Unmaximizes it?

For the past few days I've been having an issue where whenever I open a Minimized window with Alt+Tab, the window un-maximizes. Keep in mind that this is not an issue when I Alt+Tab to a window that is not minimized or I manually open it via the Taskbar. It is only when I Alt+Tab minimized windows.

I know it is a very niche problem, but it is super annoying I don't have any restore images on my computer :/ help would be appreciated.

 

Alt-tab won't switch between two windows anymore

I really need to get back the alt-tab behavior that flips back and forth between two applilcations. I did all the things I found here and some from other web pages, but nothing will let me flip from MS Word to another app I am using and then back to MS Word. Alt-tab only shows me a list of applications and clicking alt-tab again takes me back to whatever I was on before. How can I make alt-tab flip back and forth between two applications with no steps in-between them? That ability to flip back and forth has worked for me on MS Windows for decades. Thanks. Ken - - - Updated - - - When I use alt-tab, and see all the open tabs, releasing tab and then pressing tab does nothing except take me back to the window I started with. Do I need to re-install Windows 10 solely to make alt-tab work correctly?

 

Is alt+tabbing bad for your monitor or TV?

Well your monitor will only go on and off from Alt+ TAB if you are switching from an odd resolution to the desktop resolution.
Also you could just windowed borderless.
