Edge browser shows each tab as a new window in Alt + Tab? How can I disable all tabs of Microsoft Edge while doing Alt+Tab? When switching between tasks in Alt + Tab, the Edge browser may show all tabs as a separate task. If you want Microsoft Edge to behave like other web browsers and show just one window, here are 2 simple methods to stop Microsoft Edge from showing multiple tabs in Alt + Tab in Windows 11.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Method 1: Disable Microsoft Edge Tabs in Alt+Tab Using Settings App<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Press the Windows logo key + I to open the Settings app<\/a>, then go to System<\/strong> -> Multitasking<\/strong>.\n

    \n<\/li>\n

  2. Click the drop-down list next to “Show tabs from apps when snapping or pressing Alt + Tab<\/strong>” and select “Don’t show tabs<\/strong>“.\n

    \"\"\n<\/li>\n

  3. When you now press Alt + Tab, you’ll find that only a single window of Microsoft Edge will show up even if you’ve opened many tabs.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Method 2: Disable Microsoft Edge Tabs in Alt+Tab Using Registry Editor<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Open Registry Editor<\/a> and navigate to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Explorer\\Advanced<\/code>, then double-click the DWORD MultiTaskingAltTabFilter<\/strong> on the right pane.\n

      \"\"\n<\/li>\n

    2. Change its value data to one of the following depend on your choices. In my case, I set the value to 3 for preventing Windows 11 from showing tabs in Microsoft Edge.\n

      \"\"<\/p>\n

        \n
      • 0 = Show 20 most recent tabs in Microsoft Edge<\/li>\n
      • 1 = Show 5 most recent tabs in Microsoft Edge<\/li>\n
      • 2 = Show 3 most recent tabs in Microsoft Edge<\/li>\n
      • 3 = Don’t show tabs in Microsoft Edge<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
      • Close Registry Editor. You need to log off your account and then log in to make the changes take effect.\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        That’s it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
