Workspace Cycling With Ctrl+Alt+Arrow Or Mouse Wheel On Windows

0

Many Linux distro desktops cycle workspaces with Ctrl+Alt+Arrow keys. Yet virtual desktops for Windows seem to only allow switching by indicating desktops by number. Is there a way to cycle with hot keys including the arrows or mouse wheel?

Depends on the virtual desktops manager you are using. In Finestra Virtual Desktops, you can change to a desktop by pressing Windows+Desktop Number. To switch to the next/previous desktop, you use Windows+Up/Left Arrow for previous and Windows+Down/Right Arrow for next.

You are not telling us what Virtual Desktop Software you are using on Windows. With Dexpot you can set your own hot keys. So if you want to cycle through the desktops you could use Ctrl+Alt+ Arrow Key's. On default it is set as Alt+ 1or the number of the desktop you want.
