    shortcut keys for the windows switcher which i just set doesnt work, even after i did a restart, and i definitely did hit 'apply'.

    any ideas?

    right clicked on the switch window icon, selected properties, selected shortcut tab, set shift+ctrl+z as the shortcut for switch windows, clicked apply, restarted windows.

    switching works fine when you click the icon but the shortcut key doesnt work.

    cheers

    I'm assuming you already know about Alt+Tab and WinKey+Tab?
