Yep. For those that are seeking a temporary remedy, open Registry Editor, navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer, create/modify REG_DWORD value named AltTabSettings and set its value to 1. Restart your PC (restarting the Shell alone is possible but will currently introduce more bugs).

Thank you! This is honestly the best winterveil gift I have received this year, very much appreciated!

When you say "temporary" remedy, is that implying there will be a real fix that obsoletes this, or this workaround will stop working at some point?

It's fixed in the next major release so hopefully we can restore the value back to 0 when it's pushed out in Q1 2021.
Awesome, thanks for the fix, and the super quick replies, have a great season. :-)
