I've found that if you alt+tab out of games in Windows 8 Pro, you can't tab back in to it and have to open Task Manager to force close it. When you look at the game while doing this you'll usually see that game is not responding. Just wondering if there's a way to fix this or should I just wait until an update is released?
Note: This has happened in Killing Floor, Smite Closed Beta, Unreal Tournament 3, Unreal Tournament 2004, Left 4 Dead 2, and Battlefield: Bad Company 2.
EDIT 1 > Hot Corners. Disable them. (Start8 from Stardock works well. I don't know of any others, but try searching around)
EDIT 2 > I found another thing that's causing the alt+tab problem: MSI Afterburner's OSD. Disable it and you're good to go (sucks though).
