  1. Can't alt tab when I set my taskbar to the top of my screen


    Yesterday I couldn't alt tab into any of my games and the only way I was able to get in is if I spam the game icon on my taskbar. For some reason setting my taskbar to the bottom of my screen fixes it. I don't really like it at the bottom so I wanted to know if there was a fix for this

    :)

    alt tabbing increases system performance?

    Skyrim doesnt work correctly you alt tab, but if you alt tab to it again while the screen is black, it loads up with the windows cursor over the top. If i repeatedly do this, eventually it fullscreens properly without issues. Slightly weird.

  3. [Windows 10] Taskbar when alt-tabing

    Hi SlyJacob,

    Looks like your computer is set on tablet mode and you're having a problem showing the taskbar. Well, your taskbar may have been set to automatically hide. To address your problem, let's unhide your task bar by following these steps:

    • Since the taskbar doesn't appear on your screen, press the Windows key first to show it.
    • Right-click on the taskbar and click Properties.
    • Uncheck the box for Auto-hide the taskbar.
    • Click Apply, then OK.

    Once done, try checking if the taskbar will automatically shows up when pressing Alt+tab.

    Update us with the result.

    Regards.

    Taskbar glitches when alt-tabbing


    While this isn't a serious problem, it's definitely a hell of an annoyance. When I alt-tab from several full-screen games, such as League of Legends, this is the result, sometimes it differs. In the image below, you can clearly see that something's wrong with the taskbar. I would also like to tell you, that when I hover the cursor on the taskbar, they return to normal.
