title: How configure VirtualBox shortcuts to switch between virtual computer and host with single key combination on windows 10
body: <p>In practice it's always possible with first pressing <code>host</code> button while virtual computer has keyboard focus and then pressing usual windows 10 shortcut <code>ctrl + windows + left/right</code>.</p>
  <p>Is it anyhow configurable on Virtualbox to add a shortcut that captures a key combination and switch between windows workspaces, while Im using the virtual computer on full screen mode. Vitualbox itself captures many of the keystores like <code>host+F</code>, <code>host+L</code>, <code>host+E</code>, etc. Can I somehow add a shortcut similiar to these to switch back to windows and go to another workspace with a <strong>single</strong> key combination like <code>host + alt + left/right</code></p>

  <p><em>Update:</em> Apparently depending on the touch-pad model, as long as it supports multi-finger gestures like 3-4 finger swipes, the touch-pad can be used to switch between VM and host no matter who has the keyboard and mouse focus. So this can be a OEM dependent feature. (Tested with Microsoft Surface)</p>
