As far as I remember, when one was using Command + Tab, the finder window would show up when you chose "finder." For some reason it doesn't and one needs to make an additional step by pressing Command + N.
Is this normal, seems the finder window should show if you choose it?
Grace and peace.

Hallo spinningstill! Using Command + Tab and then selecting "Finder" will only show a Finder window if you actually have one open or hidden (note that a minimized window won't show!). Hope this helps you! Regards, Ian.

Hi spinningstill,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We understand that you are looking for a Mac keyboard shortcut to open a Finder window.
You can use Command-N without first using Command-Tab to open Finder. Check out Mac keyboard shortcuts for this and other shortcut information.
Take care.
Thank you that was helpful. I will leave a window open for now on.
Grace and peace.
You're very welcome! Stay healthy!
