Nealius Posted June 8, 2020 Posted June 8, 2020 Pretty much always been like that. The only way to switch/minimize is if you already have a window open. Some people say this is normal, but it's not. If you only have one window open, Alt+Tab should minimize that window, and in this case, Win should open the menu/taskbar.
D4n Posted June 8, 2020 Author Posted June 8, 2020 Some people say this is normal, but it's not. Exactly. Tapping Windows-key in any (fullscreen-) application to either view taskbar or even open the Windows Start-menu has always been an integral part of Windows-applications...

drPhibes Posted June 11, 2020 Posted June 11, 2020 The Win buttons are available as modifiers, so this is a feature, not a bug.
discwalker Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 This is a feature, we desperately need as many as possible modifier keys. GTX 1070 8GB, 16GB DDR3, W8.1 on SSD, DCS on another SSD
Eldur Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 I'm so glad we have this "feature". I could spread so much hate on other sim devs for not having it. Nothing sucks more than being kicked out of the sim by inadvertendly pressing that friggen Windows key ever so often, just to discover your stick's gone limp again after alt-tabbing back in, leaving you to having to restart the whole sim again. Thank you ED!
Nealius Posted June 16, 2020 Posted June 16, 2020 A feature that disables the ability to perform core PC functions and troubleshooting....
discwalker Posted June 16, 2020 Posted June 16, 2020 ALT+TAB switch is not disabled, so you can perform core PC functions and troubleshooting GTX 1070 8GB, 16GB DDR3, W8.1 on SSD, DCS on another SSD
Nealius Posted June 17, 2020 Posted June 17, 2020 ALT+TAB switch is not disabled, so you can perform core PC functions and troubleshooting Not when the window refuses to focus. Every single time DCS hangs and I Ctrl Alt Del to task manager, ALT Tab is INOP and I am stuck on the hung DCS screen.
Taz1004 Posted June 17, 2020 Posted June 17, 2020 (edited) Not when the window refuses to focus. Every single time DCS hangs and I Ctrl Alt Del to task manager, ALT Tab is INOP and I am stuck on the hung DCS screen. Alt Tab works fine and ctrl alt del to task manager also works when it crashes. What is the problem? Edited June 17, 2020 by Taz1004 Better Smoke - Better Trees Caucasus - Better Trees Syria - Better Trees Mariana - Clear Canopy Glass
discwalker Posted June 17, 2020 Posted June 17, 2020 Maybe you should write to Microsoft to ask to fix ALT+TAB function with a not responding fullscreen application. Are you complaining with you can press CTRL+ALT+DELETE? With that you can do what is doable in Windows. ALT+TAB is always a solution for me in Win8.1, I use DCS in full screen but full screen is not checked in options! I always run at least 1 app beside DCS. And I use Classic Shell for the familiar start menu. Working for years. I've seen many hangs, crashes and hardware failures too, but ALT+TAB worked.

discwalker Posted June 17, 2020 Posted June 17, 2020 Nowadays Win key + L lock the screen during DCS gameplay. Maybe wort to ask ed for authorize Win key + R (Run) combination during DCS gameplay, that could be helpful for troubleshooting, like "pskill dcs" command to run (In LOMAC times that was very helpful. That worked in blind mode, blind typing.) GTX 1070 8GB, 16GB DDR3, W8.1 on SSD, DCS on another SSD
