Is There A Way to switch between multiple windows (one of the windows maybe in minimized) of the same app via shortcuts?

I've been searching for a solution for a long time without success. I want to use keyboard shortcuts to quickly switch between two windows of the same application (especially Arc Browser). I know Command + ~ partially works, but it only functions when both windows are in the foreground. If one window is in the background, there's no way to bring it forward using this shortcut.

Command + `

What do you mean by background? It is a classic macos shortcut, works on all windows except minimized.

Sorry for my unclear expression. When I said "background", I actually meant "minimized".

You could write and bind a script to replace the standard behavior as you want.
I am ok with the usual behavior, so I use additional bind Command + Shift + M for unminizing windows.
You can bind and use this apple script to unminimize last minimized window

#!/usr/bin/env osascript
try
    tell application "System Events" to tell process "Dock"
        click (last UI element of list 1 where role description is "minimized window dock item")
    end tell
end try

Or this one-liner shell script

yabai -m window --deminimize $(yabai -m query --windows id,is-minimized | jq -r '.[] | select(."is-minimized"==true).id')

This one to unminimize all minimized windows

#!/usr/bin/env osascript
tell application "System Events" to tell process "Dock"
    click (UI elements of list 1 where role description is "minimized window dock item")
end tell
