In Windows 10/11, which shortcut key combination allows a user to cycle through apps on the Taskbar in the order they are pinned?
Windows Key + T
The Windows Taskbar displays pinned and running application buttons in a fixed order, arranged left to right, and Windows provides a dedicated shortcut to move focus through them in that exact sequence.
Pressing Windows Key + T jumps focus to the first Taskbar button; each further press of T advances to the next app in the pinned order, and pressing Enter then launches or activates the highlighted app.
This makes Windows Key + T the specific shortcut that cycles through Taskbar apps in the order they are pinned, exactly as the question describes.
Alt + Tab switches between open windows ordered by how recently each was used, not by their Taskbar pin position, so it does not match the requirement.
Windows Key + Tab opens Task View, showing virtual desktops and a timeline of activities; it is a window-management overview, not a Taskbar cycler.
Ctrl + Alt + Tab also brings up the open-window switcher and keeps it on screen, but it is again ordered by windows rather than by Taskbar pin sequence.
Since only one shortcut walks the Taskbar buttons in their pinned left-to-right order, the correct answer is Windows Key + T.
