I recently upgraded from Visual Studio 2012 to 2013 and I am having issues with the Ctrl+Tab shortcut. It normally works perfectly for a bit when I first open a solution, but then stops. When it stops the dialog does not show up unless I hold Ctrl+Tab for a few seconds. When I do this the dialog flickers very quickly and then finally comes up. There have been times when it flickers, but never shows steadily.
I have checked to make sure it is not the keyboard and that the Ctrl+Tab works fine in Chrome when it is not working in Visual Studio. If I restart Visual Studio I get the same experience where it works at first and then stops.
I am using Resharper 8.0.2, however I don't think that is affecting anything.
You could try checking to see if your anti-virus/mal-ware protection software is actively scanning
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe
.After upgrading to VS2013, we managed to considerably improve the IDE's responsiveness by adding an exclusion for this file. In our case, AVG's malicious behaviour scanning caused even simple keyboard operations, such as CTRL+TAB between screens, to take an age.
