I guess so - that's what I see, at least. But what's important here is what happens after that. If you use `M-TAB' in Emacs. E.g, if you type, say, `forward-w M-TAB' in the *scratch* buffer then Emacs should complete that to `forward-word'. You might have to try using `M-TAB' twice. It seems that the first time I use it Emacs does not capture it, but thereafter it does. > >> In any case, I do not really want to interfere with Windows. > > > > I assume you mean that you want to use M-TAB to switch > > between MS Windows applications. > > That's right. If you want `M-TAB' from within Emacs to go to Windows and not to Emacs then don't use `w32-register-hot-key' as I suggested. It depends what you want. > Maybe it is not working because I am on Windows 8. Maybe; dunno. I'm on XP. I believe it's supposed to work on Windows in general. If it does not, consider reporting a bug: `M-x report-emacs-bug'.
