FastWindowSwitcher

If your workspace is quickly getting cluttered with several windows, you might want a quick way to navigate through them, especially when you feel that Windows' native switcher just doesn't do it anymore.

FastWindowSwitcher is a lightweight application that can help you in the situation depicted above by providing you with all the necessary functions.

There's no need for you to install this application on your computer, as simply unpacking the archive it comes in and launching the appropriate executable grants you full control over it.

This also means that you can run it from removable storage media such as USB flash drives or external HDDs. It won't create any additional files or folders on your PC, nor it will tamper with your registry settings.

Given that it was designed to help you switch between a large number of windows, it would defeat the purpose if this app would open a new window upon launching.

Once you start the executable, it goes into your system tray and stays there until you decide to close it. If you want to customize some of its settings, you can do so by right-clicking its tray icon and selecting "Settings" from the menu.

Aside from letting you quickly navigate through your workspace by switching windows, this app can also help you open new ones, if they're pinned to the taskbar.

The default key combo is "Winkey + Y." Pressing it displays a bunch of letters on your screen that indicate what window will the app switch to, if you press any of them. However, the key combination can be changed easily.

If you're looking for a way to navigate through multiple windows with ease, or open new ones from your taskbar, FastWindowSwitcher might be the perfect tool. It requires no installation, features a simple configuration menu and runs silently in the system tray.
