ALT + tab toggles is the last window

I use Alt + tab frequently to switch between two windows, for example, two applications.  Suddenly it no longer works.  How can I restore it?  Thank you.

Right click on an area on your desktop and select "personalize".
In the personalization window, select "Theme".
Since the theme selection window, change your theme to "Windows 7 aero" for
"Classic Windows" and click OK.
At this point, the windows display will change the dull search windows
theme. But you'll find that ALT + TAB works again.

Repeat the above steps and go to "Windows Theme" and you will have
have nice looking display and ALT + TAB should still work ok.

It's like the 'theme' switching back once destroyed everything that was broken in
the shell.

  • How can I stop Firefox closes when I close the last window open?

    I had to get Windows 7 reloaded and my backup was corrupted (i.e., I couldn't use my custom Firefox.) So I downloaded the new Firefox and now it closes automatically when I close the last window opened. I prefer that Firefox stay open until I chose to close it. How to achieve this?

    Hello 1DKG, do you mean when you close the last open tab? If yes you can replace it as follows:
    enter on: config in the address bar of firefox (confirmed the message information where it appears) and search for the preference named browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab. Double-click it and change its value to false.

  • Everytime I open a new firefox window, a new tab opens with the new window. How do I stop this?

    Everytime I open a new Firefox window, the new window opens to the page of hope (as I want him), but then a tab opens with the new window. I want Firefox to stop doing this. When I open a new window I want just the window to open it. I don't know how to solve this problem I've known idea how I did that happen. First of all, it happened when I hit Ctrl + N to open a new window, but I did not hit the "N" itself. I pressed one of the other keys around the "N" and this issue has started.

    It's quite strange!

  • new links will be open in a tab, only in the main window

    with firefox 21, links will not open a new tab, only in the main window. I put the option of opening tab, but it still does not work

    The setting in Firefox/tools > Options > tabs: "new pages should be opened in ': 'a new tab/window' is for links that specify a target window to open the link.

    This option allows to divert these links into a new tab instead of a new window.

    Links that do not specify a target will open in the current tab if it does not change JavaScript.

    If this is not the case then you can have an extension interfere.

    For links that do not specify a target, use a middle click or hold down the Ctrl key and click the link or use the context menu to open the link in a new tab or window.

    This applies to the bookmarks and other links so that you can click the view Image in the context menu of an image or click on the address bar to get a new tab with this link, the Reload button.

    Click on a JavaScript link to avoid having a blank tab.

  • Firefox session restore does not restore tabs due to an open at the last window closes

    I accidentally closed Firefox without closing a window that spawned when I am logged into an e-mail client, and by train to charge to the top of Firefox just brings me to this particular window. I opened sessionstore.bak to have a peek and saw that all of my old tabs were still there, but I can't understand for the life of me what lines I need to remove it to get my tabs old back (I had about 20-30 open).

    I saved the .bak and tinkered around with it, but the best I could get Firefox loads up on my homepage instead of my old tabs. I would be grateful for any suggestion, I have spent the last hour trying to Google a solution or blunder through it myself.

    Have you checked for history > recently closed windows and Tabs?

  • Where is the "save all tabs and close" button available in the last window to-be-shut-down past in the latest version?

    It was so VERY PRACTICAL because we didn't need stuff to bookmark that they wish to work the next day... and he disappeared from the latest version of firefox... Or is the option hidden somewhere? thanx

    Now, Firefox always stores the old session which you can access from the history menu by selecting "restore previous Session."

    If you always open the last set of tabs, another approach is the following:

    1. Click on the orange button Firefox, then select options to open the options window
    2. Go to the general Panel
    3. Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "show my windows and tabs from last time '.

    I had this same problem and ended up doing a complete uninstall of my Logitech keyboard and mouse software and reinstalled the latest version. This seems to have solved the problem. I've seen other products Logitech, including USB headphones/cameras, as the source of the problem. I suspect a complete uninstall, and then reinstall with the latest version of all Logitech drivers & software can solve the problem. I am running Win7 Pro 64-bit.

    I hope this will help. :)

    I literally JUST this is done about 10 minutes ago and have not yet tested to see if it sticks through the sleep/wake extended/recovery or restart, but leave the Logitech software resulted in an IMMEDIATE solution to the problem, which prompted me to try the reinstall. So far so good. I will update if I find the problem comes back.

  • How to enable the interaction of the alt - tab mouse in the classic theme of Windows 7?

    In the Aero theme, you can select the alt - tab application by mouse. In the classic theme, you can not...

    Please do not start answer me wondering why not just use Aero already.

    I didn't Power Toy did this, but they were parallel projects by programmers bored (literally), so the company never officially it will use in production code.

    I just realized something however: If you just click on the thing you want to change anyway, why not simply click on the button in the taskbar? Just a random thought, although I suppose that if the program has more than one window/tab open, you then have to point-and - click.  Or you might disable combining the taskbar, but personally I don't like myself.
    With performance improvements and reliability gained by Aero (as well as other features like live and other preview), I would say that if you are looking for a style of eye candy than simply disable transparency and see how it works for you.
    @ jesuscheung - I think that it is possible to display a classic style using the DWM rendering engine, but since there is no default theme that looks like this, you can use StarDock WindowBlinds (or a similar application) who can apply skins.
  • First tab missing in the second window

    I have a multiple tabs open in 2 browser windows. Whenever I left Firefox by choosing File - Exit so the tabs can be opened when Firefox is started.

    It works fine on version 9. After the upgrade (since 10.0.1), the first tab in the 2nd window is missing. It can still be opened by selecting groups of tabs, but not visible on the tab bar. In addition, the "Open a new tab" button appear to the left of the tabs instead of the right, which lies between the missing tab and the rest of the tabs.

    I have seen these problems myself.

    In such a case new tabs I have open appear to the right of the button tab.

    This looks like a bug to me.

    You can usually fix this by the closure of the (last) with Ctrl + W tab and the restoration of this tab via Ctrl + Shift + T

  • Command + tab to open the Finder window does not

    Sorry to post this again - the first accidentally got marked as resolved, but it is not and I still need help.

    I recently installed at El Capitan on my iMac, and now, when I use the command + tab to toggle an application by opening a window of Finder, I get that the Finder menu bar. The open Finder window is located in the window menu, and I choose to see it and use it. Before the upgrade, command-tab would be near the top of the Finder window currently open and active. How do I get it to behave as it did before? I HATE having to select the window menu item! AND when I select the window from the window menu, the bar menu auto mask, that I also hate. Automatic masking occurs only in the Finder, and he is not selected in the settings of my Apple.

    Help! Thanks in advance.

    I think you have Finder mode full-screen. I do not use full screen at all, so I'm not really familiar with it, but what seems to work for me was to switch to Finder and select the window from the window menu, and then press ESC to exit full-screen.

  • Alt + Tab back into the admin = time prog

    Whenever I have run games and set them as 'run as administrator' through the properties, I get a problem.
    First of all it is my own computer at home and I'm the main user with full control and this which not.
    A game especially for example is world of warcraft. I was always able to alt + tab quickly back.
    One day, I checked run as admin box in the Launcher game.exe file properties and immediately I noticed the delay. the delay only occurs when I alt tab back in Warcraft. Its rapid still when I tab out. but the delay tabing back in maybe 10-25seconds. So, naturally, I décliqués the run as admin box but I still have this problem. for what its worth when I run warcraft in windowed mode, I have no delay while alt tab. but I don't want to run windowed British Colombia he cuts back to my frames per second while I play.
    Other games that run as admin with the same problem. but with warcraft only have such a detailed situation especially with the variable that it started alt tabed fast and immediately before the race as admin.

    Thank you

    It is normal, that you're going from a set of intensive fullscreen of windows resources. To change the video mode, and if you run aero that he will slow down a little more.

    If a few fps vs the time it takes to the tab of your choice. Disable aero to give you a little fps in windowed mode

  • Cannot use Alt - Tab to change the program and that it causes another similar question of program

    Hello

    When I hold Alt and Tab close, it will bring up a menu for me to choose some programs.  But the problem is now this menu will not stay longer than 2 seconds, I release the key for sure.   And at the same time, my other program has the similar problem, when I left click it used to bring up a temporary menu and I would move and choose, since I have this program Alt - Tab, I have this problem on the program (Ninjatrader).

    I tried to disable all services in windows and the boot menu, nothing works.

    I remember the laptop starting up during midnight, and the next day he has this problem.

    It's very strange and interesting.    Would be - this hacker or some sort of glitch in windows vista?

    Thank you.

    Hi MoreYummy,

    1. what desktop theme you are using?

    First try this step below and check if the program selection menu will appear.

    Method 1

    Method 2

    Check if the problem persists in safe mode.
    Start your computer in safe mode
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode
    Restart the computer to return to normal mode

    Method 3

    If the problem persists in safe mode, then it is possible that the system files are corrupted on the computer where the origin of the problem.
    I suggest that you run a SFC scan, which would be a system file corrupt on the computer search and replace.

    Scan SFC enforcement procedure:
    1. click on the Start button
    2. in the Start Menu, click all programs Accessories followed
    3. in the Accessories menu, right click on the command line option
    4. in the menu that appears, click on the option "Run as Administrator"
    5 If you have the enabled User Account Control (UAC) you will be asked to consent to the opening of the command line. You simply press the button continue if you are the administrator or insert password etc.
    6. in the command prompt window, type: sfc/scannow then press enter
    7. a message is displayed to indicate that "the analysis of the system will start.
    8. be patient because the analysis may take some time
    9. If all the files need replace SFC will replace them. You may be asked to insert your Vista DVD for this process to continue
    10. If all goes although you should, after the analysis, see the following message "Windows resource protection not found any breach of integrity.
    11 after the scan finished, close the command prompt window reboot the computer and check.
    The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows Vista installation CD.
