Does the hosted or the host OS start the application? It looks like with CtrlAlt VMware does not release the keyboard grabber, since the vm still has the focus, the host OS and therewith Windows Explorer does not receive the keyboard events and cannot issue the corresponding window event. Does switching the active window with AltTab alter the situation?
Sadly, I cannot reproduce the issue, since I am currently not running Windows. But there have been similar issues regarding remote desktop software (#4), which could not be resolved.
I am working on Windows(host) and Linux is at VMware Workstation. Application (using WIN+num
) starts at Windows(host) system.
Does switching the active window with AltTab alter the situation?
AltTab
works normaly like standard Windows behaviour including apps from bug.n tab. Is that what You mean?
The only application I can offer is, that VMware is running as administrator, but bug.n does not; with VMware being the active window, bug.n hotkeys do not work. Could that be the explenation? If you press AltTab in that situation, Win1 should than switch the bug.n view.
I notice that when I quit from virtual mashine with shortcut
Ctrl + Alt
and then I pushWIN + [number]
windows starts default application from taskbar like: IExplorer. It should go to bug.n tab [number]. Switching tabs using mouse works fine. How to fix this? I have also remapCtrl + Tab
to other key binding using AHK script and it is not possible to switch tabs in VMware Workstation using this shortcut while in other Win apps it works normally. Maybe this info might be helpful.
