Keyboard Shortcut to Cycle through Windows of same Application in Windows 7 [closed]

I would have expected this to be a very simple task: switching between windows of the same application, but I can't seem to find the shortcut to do it. I generally have several windows of applications like Chrome (each window holding all the tabs related to a particular topic).

The behaviour I am looking for is what is implemented in Mac OSX with the Cmd+~ keyboard shortcut.

Is there a way to achieve the same on Windows 7?

Solution 1:

It's not a keyboard shortcut, but holding ctrl+clicking on the icon in the taskbar repeatedly will cycle through that program's open windows.

Solution 2:

See https://superuser.com/questions/435602/shortcut-in-windows-7-to-switch-between-same-applications-windows-like-cmd.

Scott's answer is the closest one I've found to doing this. To summarize what he said:

Win + n where n is the number position of the application in the TaskBar. Then to cycle through, keep Win down and press n again.

Solution 3:

Use AltEsc for fast switching without any GUI pop up

Solution 4:

Maybe related: If you want that the windows open directly when click on the stacked taskbar symbol (instead of opening the list), you can add the DWORD "LastActiveClick" to

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced

and set it to 1.
