    How to jump back and forth between 2 Excel Files in Windows 11

    Prior to using Windows 11, I was able to easily jump back and forth between two Excel spreadsheets (in 2 separate files) using the 'Alt + Tab' shortcut keys. However, now that I am using a new computer that has WIndows11, I do not know the best way to jump back and forth between two spreadsheets.?*

    Is there a way to essentially accomplish the same thing as Alt + Tab, or any other recommendations for easily jumping back and forth between 2 Excel spreadsheets in which I am working?

    Thanks!

    FYI, I am using Excel 2010 (on Microsoft Office Professional 2010) if that makes a difference.?*

    This is not specific to Excel. This is a Windows 11 question. I do not use Windows 11 but there seems to be a lot of confusion/complaints about the ALT+TAB feature. Please see this link for one explanation of the options you need to set.

    Perhaps you can have a HYPERLINK formula in both files, say in cell A1 of Sheet1, which points to the other file, then you can just click on that cell when you want to move.

    Hope this helps.
