I can alt tab from one open window to another, just as I did before.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] alt tabbing and windows 7

Is it just me?  Or, does alt-tab not work the same way in Windows 7 as in
XP?  I mean, in XP I can have say four windows open, a, b, c, and d.  I can
be in window a, alt-tab and be in window be.  Then if I alt-tab I am back in
window A.  Now I alt-tab twice and I am in windo c.  If I then alt-tab again
I am in window a, and I can just flip between window a and c all day long
just by alt tabbing once each time.

On my Windows 7 box, I am constantly frustrated by the fact that I don't
always flip to the last window used.  I currently have JAWS open as a
window, and often when I am flipping from say my email client to internet
explorer, it will alt-tab into JAWS.  Even though I haven't been in the JAWS
window recently.

Is there some setting in Windows 7 I am missing?
