Hi all, anyone here using Microsoft Virtual PC 2007?
Can I know how to make all keys usable (eg: Tab key to switch apps within VPC) when you using another window?

Thanks.

I not sure why it wont work on mine.

Shortcut keys I used quite frequently: ALT+Tab, Windows+E, Windows+M and Esc.
And now I have to rely on mouse click when I use MS VPC. sweat.gif

try this:

Go to Virtual PC options, then click on Keyboard.

For Allow Windows key combinations - set On Guest operating system.

right click on the virtual pc icon on the system tray. then choose Options. you will definitely see Keyboard ...

Just tried both "On guest OS" and "Full Screen on guest OS" but didn't work sad.gif
Guess something must be wrong with my host window setting...

sorry, man. i really have run out of ideas. i can only suggest you do a clean install of vpc and reinstall the guess OS. PM me if u want the image of my guest OS.
