EDIT:
There is an addon solution and it works very well if you make convenient binds for it. Thanks again to Nif.
You can check out the switch_focus addon recently added to the launcher, it lets you switch between windower instances, you can //switch next to cycle through you boxes, I made it kinda for this purpose. That said I believe people have gotten old alt tab behavior back idk the specifics though or if the were only single boxing.

I just got a new computer and it came with Windows 11.
I'm noticing 2 weird things in relation to windower:
First, I had to disable snap windows and fiddle with the alt tab settings to make it work more like my previous version of windows which I want to say was 8 or possibly 10. Normal programs, folders, and web browsers understand that if i alt + tab that it will bring me back to the previous item i was using. I could normally switch back and forth between two things quickly, like 2 characters or a character and a lua/chrome to do gear on my previous computer.
The current functionality it seems to have is that it gets stuck when using windower so that it won't tab back and forth between it and another item. I usually have to minimize other windows if i want to use the calculator or lua file overlayed over windower. I can alt tab multiple time to see other things but I can't use the normal functionality between windower and anything else to tab back and forth between them.
It gets a little weirder when I have two characters going then i have to alt tab 3 times to go back and forth between them. The first one bring up whatever the last non-windower program/folder/app i used last, the next one tabs me back to the windower window I was just on, the third one bring me to the 2nd character I was attempting to get to. Before this would just be 1 alt + tab.
I'm usually only playing 1 character these days, but I sometimes take my wife's character out to do stuff like einherjar when either of us is working on a mythic because 2 for 1 is much better than doing it again. Very annoying in general but I can live with it if there is nothing to be done. If anyone has any tips of fixes I would love to hear it.
The second thing that is just weird is that if I have my wife's character on at the same time it and i'm in the equipment menu it will display my current gear but it won't show me any other gear for the slot i've selected. She has 8 full wardrobes and you can go from the 1st to the 8th and it will show no items in any of them. They still exist in the actual wardrobes and i can equip gear with lua or equip commands so i can do things like equip ring1 "warp ring". But I can't actually select anything in the equipment menu and I can't put things in equipsets from her wardrobes but things from inventory and storages are selectable. It works just fine on her own computer.
Again weird, I already have the obvious work around which is to do all her equipment on her own computer and send myself the file. Clunky, too many steps, but most of her jobs are completed and luas are written so I don't think this is a dire emergency.
Any help would be appreciated.
