    Switching between desktops keyboard shortcut not working


    Hello, my issue is what title says. When i press ctrl+win+1/2/3/4, or ctrl+win+left/right, nothing happens. This is of course when i have numbers of desktop opened. This seems to be a common issue but no genuine fix. Perhaps here someone will know? Thanks!

    :)

    How to change keyboard shortcuts for switching between open programs?

    How to change keyboard shortcuts (hotkey) for switching between open programs?

    I can't switch between open programs at remote desktop via Alt+Tab (using RDP via Citrix Reciever), because Alt+Tab works at local machine only (or simple RDP, without Citrix Reciever).

    How to set up special keybord shortcut for remote desktop, like Ctrl+Shift+F1 (for example).

    I read this article https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/126449/keyboard-shortcuts-for-windows there are no answers for my question

    P.S. Sorry for my english

    Hi Angela, do you mean you are using virtual Desktops on Windows 10 and you want to switch between desktops?

    If so you can use these keyboard shortcuts to switch between desktops:

    Windows Key + Ctrl + Left Arrow

    Windows Key + Ctrl + Right Arrow
