Windows 7: ALT + TAB Reverts to Windows XP Style

yes, that does the 3D effect I know about that one. I know the difference between 3D effects and 2D. Sorry if that was directed towards someone else.

Check these options its from Shawn's tutorial for ALT + TAB

Right click Computer --> Properties

Choose "Let Windows Decide" (If this will not help choose "Adjust for best Apearence")
Press ok-->ok and ok

And now try both.
Alt+TAB
Win button+TAB

Hope this will work

ok, it was just to make sure.
Sorry if I offended you

I'm not trying to get the Windows + Tab one working I'm trying to get the standard ALT + Tab....


nope but thanks..

So,
Does 3d Flip work? (win button+TAB)

I am asking this because if it's working it will explain that ALT+TAB problem is most probably not caused by Aero or other visual settings and compatibility.
Don't get offended.

Windows + TAB
Windows LOGO + TAB
Win + TAB

however you want to say it, this combination does the 3D flip.

What video card do you have?

lets rule out Windows + Tab...

Try this: press alt + tab, now press the right alt key while still holding the left alt key. The alt + tab menu will go away. Release the right alt key but keep holding the left alt key and press tab. This would normally turn the alt + tab menu into classic but seeing as it's already classic, it might revert it back to aero.

didn't work.
