    I have the same problem. The option mentioned is gone. I have reported this to Microsoft feedback under the same title –

    Okay this has been frustrating me for a little bit. I finally figured out the new setting.

    1. Open Windows "Settings" by pressing Windows + I.
    2. Search for "Multitasking Settings".
    3. Expand "Snap windows"
    4. Uncheck "Show my snapped windows when I hover over taskbar apps, in Task View, and when I press Alt+Tab"
    5. [Recommended] Change "Show tabs from apps when snapping or pressing Alt+Tab" to "Don't show tabs"

    Alt + tab no longer switches to last window in Windows 11

    Hi all,

    One of the most useful shortcuts I use all the time is not working for me on my new laptop with Windows 11. I used to use ALT + TAB to switch between the current window and the last window I used. Now if I use it it switches between the current window and the first open window (not the most recent). How can I get it so it switches between the two most recently used?
