What is Switcheroo?
What is Switcheroo?
Switcheroo is for anyone who spends more time using a keyboard than a mouse. Instead of alt-tabbing through a (long) list of open windows, Switcheroo allows you to quickly switch to any window by typing in just a few characters of its title. It's inspired by Emacs's IDO mode buffer switching and JetBrains' ReSharper.
How to use it?
The default key binding for Switcheroo is Alt + Space. Pressing this key combination will bring up the Switcheroo window, which lists the titles of every open window. Typing filters the list. Press Enter to switch to the selected window. Press Ctrl + Enter to close the selected window.
The key binding can be changed by right-clicking the notification icon in the Windows notification area and choosing "Options".

Very fast and comfortable keystroke window switcher. And looks like it has no any alternatives.
it is a good alt-tab alternative,though it has some bugs, but I can use autohotkey to bypass those bugs.
True to its description, it is simple and fast. A welcome improvement would be the addition of theme support e.g. to enable a dark theme.
Allows you to quickly jump to any open application by simply typing its name. also you can switch between the windows of just a single application if you type its name, for example to jump between every open window of Windows Explorer just type explorer.
If you want productivity, this is the BEST. It really works and helps you to work.
