What is Alt-Tab Terminator?
Manage Multiple Windows and Switch Tasks Faster with Alt-Tab Terminator Alt-Tab Terminator is an elegant and powerful task management utility for Windows 7/8/10. Once installed, it replaces the default Alt-Tab dialog with a nice box that shows a list of all running tasks, with their names and preview snapshots, and enables the user to take actions on them using the mouse and keyboard shortcuts. Alt-Tab Terminator is the direct successor to VistaSwitcher and TaskSwitchXP.
An average PC-user switches between windows with Alt+Tab hundreds of times per day! It’s one of the most common actions performed on a computer. With Alt-Tab Terminator, you can not only switch tasks faster, but have the full control over any opened window, all within one click away.
The main advantage of Alt-Tab Terminator is a brand new switching window. Unlike to the standard Alt-Tab, it shows a live desktop preview of the selected application and an easy-to-read relevant list of tasks with titled icons so you can find the one you need immediately at a glance.
Task Preview: Visualization is the key point. Alt-Tab Terminator shows you the exact live desktop preview of the application you want to switch to, even if it has multiple child windows.
Quick & Easy Navigation: Navigate through the task list with the keyboard (Tab, Arrow Keys, Home, End, etc.) or the mouse – simply place the mouse pointer over a task or use the mouse wheel.
Clear Large Labels: Multiple window titles are arranged on a vertical task list; a large icon is placed by each one of them. Finding the right window has become much quicker.
Customization: Press the Menu button in the top-left corner of the switching window to access the program menu and settings.
You’ll never turn back to the old wretched Alt-Tab dialog again!
With Alt-Tab Terminator, you get the full control over any opened window – you can close, minimize, maximize, restore the main window, run a new copy or even terminate the application.








Comments and Reviews
Nagware.
Author asks 20$ buying price for a program that enumerates open windows and displays them (with icon) in a list. Whipped up a replacement in 30 minutes.
Would you mind sharing your replacement somewhere? Unfortunately, I can't whip up a replacement myself.
This silently became nagware with the last update.
