Vistastylebuilder alttab4/30/2023 if you're on the 11, I wonder if you are having the same issue I am. 10 totally fixes that complaint.īut if 10's tablet mode needs some serious work, then rather than staying even closer to desktop, I should probably dig in to tablet, and see for myself, in order to make intelligent contributions in the feedback app. That was one of my chief complaints about 8: desktop mode was way too tablet, and tablet mode was way too desktop, and while there technically distinct desktop and tablet modes, there was virtually nothing that distinguished them. I LOVE that tablet mode and desktop mode are so very different from each other in 10, and that desktop is so very desktop while tablet is so very tablet. Maybe I need to spend more time in that mode, eh? I'm rockin the 11, are you on 11 or 10? But I have hardly used tablet mode on it, so I only know it superficially. Posted via the Windows Phone Central App for Android So fix the start screen app space, and make it so that gestures will work again in Tablet WITHOUT making them also work in Desktop (or give us ample hamburger menus), and we'll be mostly set! :-) Instead, it gives you that three or four cluster setup, and that's it. The horizontal scrolling on the 8 start screen was more or less potentially infinite, was it not - limited only by how many apps you had pinned to it, right? It stands to reason then that the vertical scrolling on 10 should likewise be theoretically unlimited. One of my chief complaints with 8 was that "8 desktop" was way too much "tablet", "8 tablet" was way too much "desktop", and there was virtually no perceptible difference between the two.īut features aside, while I have no problem with them changing the orientation of the tablet start screen from horizontal to vertical, I do have a problem with how limited the new start screen is in terms of space for apps. I will agree that I'm glad they made a stark contrast between desktop and tablet mode in 10. But since even on my 2-in-1, I use it as a netbook way more than as a tablet, if it's gotta be all or nothing on the gestures, I say nothing. Now, I suppose the optimal solution would be to have all the Windows 8 gestures and more be available on 10 when it's in Tablet Mode, but then have them be disabled in Desktop Mode, with no more (or few more) gestures than 7 had. I When using it like a desktop, those features made things super difficult! Trying to navigate Windows 8 on a little trackpad was an ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE! And that was on a 2-in-1 with touch capability. It’ll open Registry Editor.Well, I for one am glad they stripped down the gestures. Type regedit in RUN or Start search box and press Enter. If you also find it annoying or boring and want to bring back the good old Windows XP style Classic “Alt+Tab” Switcher screen in Windows Vista and later, this tutorial will help you.Īfter following this tutorial, you’ll be able to get Windows XP style classic Alt+Tab box in Windows Vista, Windows 7 and later Windows versions as shown in following image:ġ. Its good and very handy but some people who are using Windows Vista or later Windows versions, might find it annoying as it takes some time to show the switcher screen and selecting the running application. The “Alt+Tab” switcher screen also shows “Desktop” in the list so that you can directly access Desktop icons without minimizing all running applications manually. You’ll not find any noticeable UI change in the screen. If we talk about Windows 8 “Alt+Tab” switcher screen, its quite similar to Windows 7. If we talk about newer Windows versions such as Windows Vista or later, we get a new improved Alt+Tab screen which shows running application names along with their live thumbnails so that we can see the window content before switching to them. ![]() ![]() It just used to show program icons and names in the list. In Windows XP and earlier Windows versions, Alt+Tab screen was very basic and simple. This “Alt+Tab” switcher screen can be found in almost all Windows versions and Microsoft keeps improving its functionality in each new version of Windows. You can select your desired program using “Tab” key or using your mouse cursor and it’ll immediately switch to that program. Whenever you want to switch to another running program, you just need to press “Alt+Tab” keys together and Windows shows you a list of all running programs with live thumbnails and window titles. “ Alt+Tab” is one of the most frequently used keyboard shortcut (hotkey) in Windows OS.
