Clicking on the task bar entry that corresponds to Emacs also works.

But using the mouse for switching focus is inefficient and, most likely,
unergonomic.

There are little programs out there that allow to define global shorcuts
associated to actions. IIRC I have some of my Windows machines
configured with one such tool that allows me to use the same keyboard
shorcuts that I use on my GNU/Linux workstations for switching focus to
Emacs, Firefox, etc.
