Is it compatible with SP2?
THANKS

I found it among the many powertoys on this page
http://beqiraj.com/windows/powertoys/index.asp
it included in the powertoys version 1.0 English
when you install it gives you an option to do a custom installation...
I will give it a go...and install the superfast switcher only...

DON'T download from non microsoft sites unless you know them to be
reliable.
Try this:

no .. the old powertoy version 1.0 I was looking for is no longer on the
original
MS site.
I tested it and it works with SP2 (install only the superfast switch
though).

Since the requested one is not among them, I'm not quite clear on why
you posted this URL.

I downloaded and installed Alt-tab powertoy which gives better
display of contents of windows when I press alt-tab.
However, every program icon is appearing twice in that alt-tab
window. when I am at one of icon, there is no display of the
content, and when I am in the other icon, the content of window
gets displayed.
It is still working, however, it is a waste to skip over the
useless double icons.
How to rectify it?
I had not uninstalled the previous alt-tab switcher and had
installed over and above it. It did give the message that
previous program is there, and had asked me whether to
overwrite. I had given yes.

fast user switch has nothing to do with task switching.

Uninstall. :-)
Seriously, I noticed a lot of double icons too -- though not every
one. (I guess it depends on the program.) I finally decided it wasn't
any better than the standard Alt-Tab for the way I work, and it was
one less program to load.

you'd think that techie people replying would have a radar to spot
their own kind, and not tell a techie to avoid non MS sites.
Though funnily enough, he did post anonymously!
I'm glad you contributed the solution to the - great googlable -
archives. A lot of people dont 'get that' either.

wow!
Due to the above problem of some of the icons appearing twice in
modified taskbar, I uninstalled it.
And I got good, old win98se style Alt-Tab task switcher back.
And it is working perfectly fine.
Seems there was some other modified version already built-in in
my xp cd which was not functioning properly. When I installed
the one I downloaded from ms site, this one overwrote the one
that installed by my xp cd. So, when I uninstalled this one, I
got the default alt-tab back.
Thanks.
