Does all the same things as before. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/121-beta2-alt-tab-selects-random-windows-and-skips-others/?ID=019d8164-5f0d-75d2-bb4c-b231fac30c6c#5 Thu, 16 Apr 2026 19:42:42 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/121-beta2-alt-tab-selects-random-windows-and-skips-others/?ID=019d8164-5f0d-75d2-bb4c-b231fac30c6c#5 DisplayFusion I was able to reproduce this here, we'll add it to our list to look into.

thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/121-beta2-alt-tab-selects-random-windows-and-skips-others/?ID=019d8164-5f0d-75d2-bb4c-b231fac30c6c#4 Wed, 15 Apr 2026 19:51:18 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/121-beta2-alt-tab-selects-random-windows-and-skips-others/?ID=019d8164-5f0d-75d2-bb4c-b231fac30c6c#4 DisplayFusion I have the same problem. alt+tab is not switching to last active window anymore. Beta1 worked fine.
Win10 Pro, Steam Version of DF, Alt+Tab-Setting is "on active screen all opened windows"
if I deactivate it, te windows-alt-tab-switcher works correct.
main-screen or all-screens and all opened windows => same problem
on current screen only windows from this screen => same problem ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/121-beta2-alt-tab-selects-random-windows-and-skips-others/?ID=019d8164-5f0d-75d2-bb4c-b231fac30c6c#3 Mon, 13 Apr 2026 18:31:15 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/121-beta2-alt-tab-selects-random-windows-and-skips-others/?ID=019d8164-5f0d-75d2-bb4c-b231fac30c6c#3 DisplayFusion I'm not sure which one is relevant here, these are the settings I could find (I'm on 12.0.2-Beta7 right now but I believe these settings carry over upon updating/downgrading, at least I haven't changed any settings and it still works with this version).

Example1:
1. have 5 Firefox windows open
2. select at least 3 of them one after another, now window5 is open
3. try to use alt-tab to switch back to window4
4. either some other Firefox window (window1, window2 or window3) or some other program will be selected

Example2:
1. have 2 applications open, can be anything
2. have Discord open and minimize it
2. activate app1
3. activate app2
4. try to tab back to app1
5. Discord will be selected instead

Can't find any pattern in it, it seems some apps are being prioritized (like Discord), minimizing them also plays a factor somehow, sometimes it seems like it will just go over all the windows in some random order instead of back and forth between the last 2 used. ]]>
