Tab key loses focus on Remote Control Screen Share session
We often use the Remote Control Screen share session. It helps us discuss over spreadsheets, or code, and even help manage a Linux system. The "Tab" key on the PC keyboard has a very important and specific role to play in all such situations.
Apparently in an effort to add some new features the use of Tab key is now limited to just playing around on the MS Teams' UI.
A whole lot of users have been trying to get the attention of the Development and support guys at Microsoft / Teams - see here - https://feedbackportal.microsoft.com/feedback/idea/08c2c414-edaa-ec11-a81c-0022485066fe
Would most sincerely appreciate a fix, or atleast a work around.
Anyone listening here?
So I found a workaround .. installed Microsoft Powertoys .. in keyboard manager .. Remap a shortcut .. mapped CTRL + TAB to ALT + NUMPAD 9 for Teams Now when I take control in a Remote Screen Share session during a Teams session, I can use CTRL + TAB to send a TAB keystroke to the remote system. Works ok, but still wish the Microsoft guys take a note.

Did you even bother to read the post before replying?
Or is it just a mindless copy-n-paste from a template of responses by some bot?
