Alt-Tab and Chrome - slow down when switching to chrome

October 20, 2026 5:24 AM from

Hello,

I am using AltTabby 0.95 with windows 11. It seems it has a problem with AltTabby and Chrome. When switching to a Chrome window, it takes about 2 to 4seconds to show the chrome window. It seems to hang a little waiting for something to happen then switch.

This does not happen for other apps, including firefox.

nb: I am not using the feature related to AltTabby tracking the tab of Chrome.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Please try, uninstall AltTabby, reboot immediately (important), download latest version available in your account product download page: https://store.stardock.com/myaccount/products. Install it, reboot immediately again. Retest it and report back.

Also, need more information, need your Windows 10/11 full version and OS Build number. Use Winver.exe to get these numbers. And check if the issue appear if you're running Chrome without any extension. Perhaps there is conflict when specific extension running in the background for Chrome.

Thank you,
