Windows 10 Logo Hero - Version 3

As of October update 2020, Windows 10 now shows Microsoft Edge browser tabs in Alt task switcher + Tab by default. For some people, this may be useful. But, if you want to disable tabs in Alt + Tab, it's easy to fix in Settings. That's how.

After upgrading to Windows update 10 October 2020, if you press Alt + Tab with Edge open, you will see all your Edge browser tabs as separate entries with thumbnails in the task launcher. Let's turn that off.

An example of Microsoft Edge browser tabs displayed in Alt + Tab Task Switcher

To do it, abra “Windows Settings” by clicking the button “Beginning” and choosing the small gear icon on the left. Or you can press Windows + i on your keyboard.

In Settings, vaya a Sistema> Multitarea.

In Settings, vaya a Sistema src=

In the menu that appears, select “Open Windows only”.

Please select

Thereafter, close Settings. The next time I use Alt + Tab, you will no longer see Edge tabs as separate entries in the task launcher. Instead, you will only see Edge windows in the list.

When configuring Windows, it all comes down to what is comfortable for you. Sometimes, the old ways are more familiar, but it's also good to try new features as they appear, so experiment with these settings until you find the one you like best. Good luck!
