Avoid Vista start menu popping up?

Post by bordwehr »

Does anyone here know if it's possible to prevent the Windows Vista start menu from popping up every time you switch to VirtualBox (Vista virtual machine)?

Thanks, I think you're right, it seems to be switching apps using Cmd (right) + Tab that does it.
