    When I have multiple Edge windows open and each one of them has multiple tabs, Alt-Tab and Ctrl-Tab switches between tabs in the Edge windows. How can I change this to have Alt-Tab switch between the Edge windows?

    Hi Abid,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    I'm Hahn and I'm here to help you with your concern.

    The default shortcuts used by Microsoft Edge to switch between tabs are Ctrl + Tab (to switch to the next tab) and Ctrl + Shift + Tab (to switch to the previous tab).Alt+Tab is the Windows shortcut for switching between different applications. If you want to quickly switch between tabs in Microsoft Edge, you need to use Ctrl + Tab or Ctrl + Shift + Tab.
