Then on the 10th time I’m using Alt-Tab, it will randomly switch to window C which I haven’t opened in a while,” one user noted in the Feedback Hub. For example, if I am quickly switching between windows A and B using Alt-Tab, it will be fine 9 out of 10 times.
“Alt-Tab has started acting very inconsistent. Several users confirmed the issue in the Feedback Hub and it looks like Microsoft is aware of the reports. According to reports and our own testing, a bug in the update could result in your Alt+Tab order changing unexpectedly and it will open the wrong window when you try to switch between apps.įor example, if you have three app windows open (A, B, C) and you’re trying to switch to the first window ‘A’, Alt-Tab interface will instead focus on the window after the intended one. When this happens, it can be observed that the selection on the Alt + Tab menu is not on the entry ‘A’, as it should be, but on the second entry ‘B’.
Unfortunately, Alt+Tab interface is now broken for some users after they applied the Windows 10 October 2020 Update. Microsoft believes that standard Alt+Tab is pretty basic and Edge tabs inclusion could allow you to navigate through your running tasks more easily.
