Default [Resolved] How do I unbind alt+tab and reassign function to ctrl+tab?

I have the windows transformation pack and the retail version of topdesk. I want to reassign the alt tab function but after about an hour of google searching I can't find ANYTHING telling me how to do it.

Can someone give this poor juvinile computer tech a clue before his head explodes?

thanks

H Night....
it's not possible.

ALT TAB is the only way you can switch between windows.

what are you actually trying to do? I might have misunderstood your question

well I have topdesk, it lets you do that vista window 3d flip thing in windows xp. For that, it binds to alt tab, but naturally the task can only be assigned to one binding. so what I want to do is change the binding to where there's no conflict. I'm sitting at that install box right now until I find out how to do it.

....... *whines* your forums are picking on meeeeeeee !!!!!

Update: It's customizable.... I think the standard alt tab function in windows got overwritten but eh, what the heck... this is definitely one of those problems that should be simple, but when it comes to solving, not so simple. Thanks for your time Garhar :s maybe if we find out how to do it, it'll come in handy for some people.

Heya night - forry for my late responses - i'm at work

And no..it's not possible to unbind the ALT-TAB function without the aid of software, as you no doubt have found...

However, i would have suggested WinKey + Tab as this is what Vista uses with the 3d tabs.
