Hey,
Thanks for the suggestion, but that won't work as I am on 8.1, not 7 or 10. In 8, Win+Tab shuffles between running windows apps, not desktop apps.
I do have a somewhat janky workaround involving WIn+T, arrow keys, and Enter key, but I'm holding out that Jason is able to support alt+tab as that works so much better and has been the standard in Windows since forever now.
