- Open a PowerPoint presentation with multiple slides;
- Press F5 to enter the show mode;
- Press Enter/backspace multiple times to switch to the next/previous slide, Then press NVDA+T;
- Now press windows+d to focus to the desktop, then press Alt+Tab to return to the slideshow window, Then press NVDA+T.
Actual behavior:
The title obtained by nvda +t in step 3 is different from the title obtained by nvda +t in step 4.

Other questions
Does the issue still occur after restarting your computer?
Yes
Have you tried any other versions of NVDA? If so, please report their behaviors.
Older or alpha versions of nvda can also reproduce
If NVDA add-ons are disabled, is your problem still occurring?
Yes
Does the issue still occur after you run the COM Registration Fixing Tool in NVDA's tools menu?
Yes
I got the following: -Go in show mode with F5 starting on slide 1, go to alt+tab to the actual slideshow. If I press NVDA+T I get "Slide show - Slide 1 " -Press enter to move to next slide. NVDA reports this change nicely. If I press NVDA + T it still reports "Slide show - Slide 1 " -Alt-Tab out and in again, NVDA + T now reports "Slide show - Slide 2"
Yes, this problem is urgent, which means that if I want to know the current window title I may have to press Alt + Tab frequently. cc @feerrenrut @michaelDCurran @seanbudd Can you look into it?
@seanbudd The problem can still be reproduced, can you try it?
