Onwardbob #85391 Hi, just recently while alt tabbing I only land on two out of the five items that should be there. Why, and what can I do? BOB SOUTAR.ONWARD THRU THE FOG

Mike B <mb69mach1@...> #85394 Hi Bob, Check out the note below and see if the keystroke, Windows key + Tab, will work for you. Original Message From: Justin Williams I've noticed, that from time to time, like right now, I can't alt tab through the different application on the task bar, like if I have 8 open, I can only see one or two. Is there an overlay or something, why is this happening, and how do I fix it? Justin From: Rebecca Lineberger I prefer using windows key-tab. After you press that, you can left and right arrow through all the open windows. Press enter on the one you want to select it. If you want to close something as you're arrowing through, press the application/menu key and arrow up to close and press enter. As I remember, this also works in Windows 7, but it's been awhile. Smile. Rebecca Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. Go Rams! Arguing with a woman is like reading a software license agreement. In the end you have to ignore everything, & click I agree. toggle quoted messageShow quoted text ----- Original Message ----- From: Onwardbob To: talk Sent: Monday, December 16, 2019 11:33 AM Subject: [TechTalk] About alt tabbing Hi, just recently while alt tabbing I only land on two out of the five items that should be there.

chris judge #85408 Also, if you have more than 2 items running on your task bar you should keep the alt key held down until you reach the item you want. If you just press alt then tab, then rlease both every time you will just end up cycling between the last 2 items and focus. toggle quoted messageShow quoted text -----Original Message----- From: main@TechTalk.groups.io <main@TechTalk.groups.io> On Behalf Of Monte Single Sent: December 16, 2019 3:38 PM To: main@TechTalk.groups.io Subject: Re: [TechTalk] About alt tabbing Is this in win7 or 10 In win 10 alt tabbing no longer includes the desktop. -----Original Message----- From: main@TechTalk.groups.io [mailto:main@TechTalk.groups.io] On Behalf Of Onwardbob Sent: December-16-19 1:34 PM To: talk <TechTalk@groups.io> Subject: [TechTalk] About alt tabbing Hi, just recently while alt tabbing I only land on two out of the five items that should be there.

chris judge #85409 Yes Pam you are correct. Alt tab is for cycling between open applications. toggle quoted messageShow quoted text -----Original Message----- From: main@TechTalk.groups.io <main@TechTalk.groups.io> On Behalf Of Pamela Dominguez Sent: December 16, 2019 7:23 PM To: main@TechTalk.groups.io Subject: Re: [TechTalk] About alt tabbing Doesn't alt tabbing only work if the windows are open?
