When using the launcher (tried with versions 1.8.0-2311636 and 1.7.1-2304152) on my Windows 7 machine and I do Alt+Tab to change windows (between any pair of windows, not just the Launcher one), the change takes a few seconds for some reason. I’ve checked memory and CPU and I have plenty of both free, and the launcher itself it’s using like 6% on a 4-core system and very little memory. Closing the launcher fixes everything, so there is no doubt it is the culprit.
I’ve also checked I/O rates and GPU memory/CPU usage just in case, but there is nothing obvious here. Is there any way of helping you debug this? I don’t need the launcher open to do anything, but still…
I just tested this on my machine but I couldn’t get your results. Could you post your dxdiag? Below is a link with directions on how to find it if you are unfamiliar.
I’m unsure of what could be the cause. Do you happen to have another program running in the background that may conflict in some way with the Launcher?
Sorry, I forgot I had a custom switcher (Alt-Tab Terminator - Ultra-Modern Task Switcher for Windows - NTWind Software, I’ve been using it for years, and completely forgot). If I don’t use it, then window tabbing is as fast as usual. However, this is the first time this happens, even the UE editor works fine.
Anyway, even if it’s a fault on the Launcher (not sure), I very much doubt you’ll spend time fixing this, so this can be closed. Thanks
