Navigate Application and its Windows with Keyboard.

[lordlycastle]

Alt+Tab is very limiting. You have to find the window then navigate to it by pressing tabs many times. So how about a keyboard based application/window switcher where you can type name of app, abbreviation, app's window name to bring it to front?

Look at launchbar for inspiration.

Interesting idea combining alt+tab and a text search driven launcher. Why not search for running apps as well as apps you can launch.

[lordlycastle]

@indierawk2k2 if you can come up with a good enough UX which allows for both that would be nice. But seeing the current state of the search functionality on win implementing this separately would be much quicker.

Win + TAB and then use the keyboard to search, I think it's a good way.

a native functionality like http://www.switcheroo.io/ would be great. I don't use alt+tab anymore. add a function to launch an app if not found in the list of running apps (does not exist in switcheroo).

Recommendation from @manogna4 about switcheroo is good. I want to suggest one more great little utility called https://www.launchy.net/. It is a small search bar, which goes through user defined catalog and can run app. I use it for accessing most used files and for running all applications.

So if functions from both apps would be united under the new powerToy AltTab, that would be nice.

Feel like window walker inside PT Run does this.

With 0.25, just do <tea and any process that referenced TEA would come up such as Microsoft Teams

[crutkas]

Feel like this is already done so going to close this out. please challenge me if you PT Run's implementation is not enough

Not really part of that. But Microsoft loves Ignoring and “cleaning up” old issues. So guess just another day at the office. 🖨
