If you don’t know starting with Windows 10 Build 20161, the company updated Windows 10 Alt + Tab experience and allow users to switch between apps and Edge tabs. There’s a setting in Windows 10 from where users can manage a number of tabs to appear in the ALT + Tab window.
On Windows 10 if you go to Settings > System > Multitasking > Alt+ Tabs. You will find these options:
- Open windows and all tabs in Edge

- Open Windows only
Although, the feature is available in pre-release builds and still in the developing phase. Some users reported various bugs related to the Alt + Tab experience and suggested the company to provide users the option to disable this in the Edge browser.
