nmshyam:
I have been a regular user of FARR.

I now have a Windows 7 64-bit OS & notice that even after selecting "Show on Taskbar" option in "Window Options", I dont get to see FARR in the Alt+Tab window!

I searched the forum, but didnt find any recent comment on this issue.

@Mouser: Is there any solution to this? Is it because of my 64 bit OS? How to resolve this? I need this feature most of the times I use FARR as a list of search results would be behind another window & I want to switch to FARR to try the other result, but to no avail. I am sure this is the same case with other users too.

Please help.

Thanks
Shyam

did you make sure to restart FARR after changing that setting?

nmshyam:
Thanks for the reply Mouser.

Yes. Apparently, I enabled that setting months back & the app is restarted along with system restart many times.

I notice a peculiar behavior. If I activate the app through a shortcut, and then try Alt+Tab, it shows up in the alt-tab window. I switch another window now & again try alt-tab, FARR is still there in alt-tab window & now switch back to FARR. So this accounts for two swaps of FARR & the other window. The issue is after this. FARR will not come back on alt-tab window till the time it is there in taskbar.

If I close FARR window & activate it again using the shortcut, it will again appear on alt-tab window again for two swaps only. Isnt it strange?

Plz see if this can be resolved. As I said, I am not sure if it is because of my Win 7 64 bit. Can you confirm on this?

Thanks again.

@Mouser: Is it a bug in FARR? Plz let me know...I use FARR a lot & I miss this feature.

@Mouser: Is there any solution to this problem? Not sure if other FARR users dont have this problem, but find it very inconvenient. Can you plz reply? Is it an inherent problem in 64-bit Windows OS?
