[Bug] Alt-tab order broken for certain apps #46

Open mitchcapper opened 1 year ago

I have noticed some apps still show up independently in the taskbar when they are the active tab in US (and hide otherwise). While a minor visual annoyance not the end of the world. It seems this causes a secondary bug however in alt-tab recent order being broken. One might expect if you hit alt-tab and release you are instantly in your previous window. Hitting it again brings you to the window active when you first hit it. No matter if you alt-tab to the US tab manually or to the window that sits in the taskbar the window order is now the same for alt-tab: 0 - The window that also shows in the taskbar 1 - US 2 - The window you were on prior to hitting alt-tab.

So to switch back you have to hit alt-tab-tab otherwise you just end up in the US window.

Clearly the taskbar visibility and this issue are related, but if we can't find a workaround for it appearing in the taskbar we may be able to at least detect this and remove ourselves from the tab order when active.

Does this only happen to UWP apps? I remembered the last time I tested this only happen to UWP apps, but I might be wrong.

No, certainly happened with WPF apps and non .net apps I believe.
