Windows 10 Virtual Desktops - Shortcut to “enable” / “activate” a program after desktop switch

I really like the new virtual desktop feature in windows 10. It really improves my work productivity. However I have one issue I cannot find to fix.


I simplify my problem here a little bit:


I have 2 virtual Desktops. Desktop 1 contains a browser (displaying stackoverflow.com obviously ;) ).


Desktop 2 contains my IDE.


I switch quite often between those 2 desktops. I have to press Win + Strgt + Left/Right Arrow to switch desktops. When I switch from desktop 1 to desktop 2, I want to instantly be able to start writing code in my IDE, but this is not possible, because I have to "enable" or "activate" the window at first (by clicking into the programm with my mouse). I want to get rid of using my mouse and just leave my hands on the keyboard in this case. Is there some kind of possibility (shortcut) to do so?
