What's the long way? You can just press NVDA+f2, Windows+tab, or redefine that key in WinWizard.

If you hit windows t, then shift tab and click the task view button you will view said table. I like it actually. The top row is the stuff you had open just now. the next row is the stuff you had open today etc etc etc. I don't use the task view often, except to move apps to virtual desktops but it works well for what I need and is a quick ish way to get around. -- Sarah Alawami, owner of TFFP. .

The table of open windows is usually what I'm interested in. Is there a way to change this so it displays to NVDA in a list or however it did in Windows 7 and before?

What task switching window (Alt+Tab) will show is a table of open windows. At least on recent Windows 10 releases, to find out how many windows are showing, it is better to open Task View (Windows+Tab) instead.

Hi all, I had to use Narrator to get me out of a tight spot yesterday, and I've noticed this in previous experiences as well. Narrator, and every other screen reader on Windows 7, gave the alt+tab list as a number out of total programs, for example Windows Media Player 2 of 3. Now on 10, Narrator is the only screen reader that does this. Everything else I've used with Windows 10 says "Windows Media Player row 1 column 2." To me this is not useful at all, because I have no idea how many rows there are, or how many columns are in a row. Is there a way to change the way NVDA announces this? Bob
