Alt tabbing to char select

Automatically logs the first character selected when I alt tab to the character select screen. Not a huge issue, just kind of annoying, more curious than anything else. Noticed when I switched from XP to Windows 8. Anyone else have this happen to them / know a fix?
 
The same thing happens to me sometimes. I just don't alt tab out until I select the char now :( FYI, i think this happened to me on windows 7 too.
 
yeah, same- windows 7... it's risky keeping toons at char select.. i do my best to remember to not alt+tab till im ready... but then again.... when i buff, i usually light one up and can forget :(
 
I can't seem to reproduce this in Windows 7.

What version of windows explorer do you have (explorer.exe)? I know some of the later versions introduced other bugs with alt+tab.

What do you have in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ ?

Does it happen when you use the flip switcher (windows key + tab)?
Does it happen when you use the old-school switcher (hold left alt, tap right alt, press tab)?
