Add FancyZones CLI for command-line layout management (#44078)
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request
Adds a new command-line interface (CLI) tool for FancyZones, enabling
users and automation scripts to manage window layouts without the GUI.
**Commands:**
| Command | Aliases | Description |
|---------|---------|-------------|
| `help` | | Displays general help information for all commands |
| `open-editor` | `editor`, `e` | Launch FancyZones layout editor |
| `get-monitors` | `monitors`, `m` | List all monitors and their
properties |
| `get-layouts` | `layouts`, `ls` | List all available layouts with
ASCII art preview |
| `get-active-layout` | `active`, `a` | Show currently active layout |
| `set-layout <uuid>` | `set`, `s` | Apply layout by UUID or template
name |
| `open-settings` | `settings` | Open FancyZones settings page |
| `get-hotkeys` | `hotkeys`, `hk` | List all layout hotkeys |
| `set-hotkey <key> <uuid>` | `shk` | Assign hotkey (0-9) to custom
layout |
| `remove-hotkey <key>` | `rhk` | Remove hotkey assignment |
**Key Capabilities:**
- ASCII art visualization of layouts (grid, focus, priority-grid,
canvas)
- Support for both template layouts and custom layouts
- Monitor-specific layout targeting (`--monitor N` or `--all`)
- Real-time notification to FancyZones via Windows messages
- Native AOT compilation support for fast startup
### Example Usage
```bash
# List all layouts with visual previews
FancyZonesCLI.exe ls
# Apply "columns" template to all monitors
FancyZonesCLI.exe s columns --all
# Set custom layout on monitor 2
FancyZonesCLI.exe s {uuid} --monitor 2
# Assign hotkey Win+Ctrl+Alt+3 to a layout
FancyZonesCLI.exe shk 3 {uuid}
```

[CmdPal] Optimise MainListPage's results display by merging already-sorted lists (#44126)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR replaces the current LINQ-based results compilation query of
combining, sorting and filtering the four result sources with a 3-way
merge operation plus a final append. It provides a performance increase
as well as a significant reduction in allocations.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
The existing code:
1. Limits the number of apps returned to a pre-defined maximum.
2. Sorts the apps list.
3. Appends filtered items, scored fallback items and the apps list
together.
4. Sorts the three lists based on their score.
5. Appends the non-scored fallback items, with empty items excluded.
6. Selects just the `Item` from each.
7. Creates an array from the enumerable.
```csharp
if (_filteredApps?.Count > 0)
{
limitedApps = _filteredApps.OrderByDescending(s => s.Score).Take(_appResultLimit).ToList();
}
var items = Enumerable.Empty<Scored<IListItem>>()
.Concat(_filteredItems is not null ? _filteredItems : [])
.Concat(_scoredFallbackItems is not null ? _scoredFallbackItems : [])
.Concat(limitedApps)
.OrderByDescending(o => o.Score)
// Add fallback items post-sort so they are always at the end of the list
// and eventually ordered based on user preference
.Concat(_fallbackItems is not null ? _fallbackItems.Where(w => !string.IsNullOrEmpty(w.Item.Title)) : [])
.Select(s => s.Item)
.ToArray();
```
We can exploit the fact that each of the three 'scored' lists are
pre-ordered, and replace the query with a 3-way merge and final append
of the non-scored fallback items.
By pre-sizing the results array we can avoid all the extra allocations
of the LINQ-based solution.
### Proof of pre-ordering
In `UpdateSearchText`, each of the lists is defined by calling
`ListHelpers.FilterListWithScores`:
```csharp
// Produce a list of everything that matches the current filter.
_filteredItems = [.. ListHelpers.FilterListWithScores<IListItem>(newFilteredItems ?? [], SearchText, scoreItem)];
```
```csharp
_scoredFallbackItems = ListHelpers.FilterListWithScores<IListItem>(newFallbacksForScoring ?? [], SearchText, scoreItem);
```
```csharp
var scoredApps = ListHelpers.FilterListWithScores<IListItem>(newApps, SearchText, scoreItem);
...
_filteredApps = [.. scoredApps];
```
In `FilterListWithScores`, the results are ordered by score:
```csharp
var scores = items
.Select(li => new Scored<T>() { Item = li, Score = scoreFunction(query, li) })
.Where(score => score.Score > 0)
.OrderByDescending(score => score.Score);
```
(This also makes the existing `OrderByDescending()` for `_filteredApps`
before the LINQ query redundant.)
### K-way merge
Since the results are pre-sorted, we can do a direct merge in linear
time. This is what the new `MainListPageResultFactory`'s `Create`
achieves. As the lists may be different sizes, the routine does a 3-way
merge, followed by a 2-way merge and a single list drain to finish. Each
element is only visited once.
### Benchmarks
A separate benchmark project is
[here](https://github.com/daverayment/MainListBench), written with
Benchmark.net.
The project compares the current LINQ-based solution against:
1. An Array-based algorithm which pre-assigns a results array and still
sorts the 3 scored sets of results. This shows a naive non-LINQ solution
which is still _O(n log n)_ because of the sort.
2. The k-way merge, which is described above. _O(n)_ for both time and
space complexity.
3. A heap merge algorithm, which uses a priority queue instead of
tracking each of the lists separately. (This is _O(n log k)_ in terms of
time complexity and _O(n + k)_ for space.)
Care is taken to ensure stable sorting of items. When preparing the
benchmark data, items with identical scores are assigned to confirm each
algorithm performs identically to the LINQ `OrderBy` approach, which
performs a stable sort.
Results show that the merge performs best in terms of both runtime
performance and allocations, sometimes by a significant margin. Compared
to the LINQ approach, merge runs 400%+ faster and with at most ~20% of
the allocations:

### Cons
1. Existing performance is not currently an issue. This could be seen as
a premature optimisation.
2. The new code introduces an inherent contract between the results
compilation routine and the lists, i.e. that they must be sorted.
This PR was really for research and learning more about CmdPal (and a
bit of algorithm practice because it's Advent of Code time), so please
feel free to reject if you feel the cons outweigh the pros.
<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
- Added unit tests to exercise the new code, which confirm that the
specific ordering is preserved, and the filtering and pre-trimming of
the apps list is performed as before.
- Existing non-UI unit tests run. NB: I _could not_ run any UI Tests on
my system and just got an early bail-out each time.
- Manual testing in (non-AOT) Release mode.

Before

After

I noticed the double "active" line around the items when the ListPage is
focused. I was unable to find where that is defined. Ideally, the
black-border would go away.
I tested with AOT turned on.
The behavior accounts for suggestions. If the SearchBar is focused and
there is a suggestion, right-arrow will [continue] to complete the
suggestion.

Improve install scope detection to prevent mixed user/machine installations (#43931)
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request
The old implementation checked
`HKLM\Software\Classes\powertoys\InstallScope` first. If this key
existed (even as a remnant from incomplete uninstall), it would
immediately return `PerMachine` without validating the actual
installation.
### Fix
- Uses Windows standard Uninstall registry (most reliable source of
truth)
- Identifies PowerToys Bundle by exact `BundleUpgradeCode` GUID match
- MSI component entries (always in HKLM) are automatically ignored since
they don't have `BundleUpgradeCode`
- Checks HKCU first, then HKLM, properly handling the fact that Bundle
location reflects true install scope

Using centralized package management for vcxproj (#43920)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This pull request updates the build system for several native and
managed projects, modernizing NuGet package management and improving
code analysis configuration. The main changes involve switching from
legacy `packages.config` and manual `.props`/`.targets` imports to
PackageReference style for native projects, updating package versions,
and streamlining code analysis settings.
**Build system modernization and package management:**
* Migrated native projects (`PowerToys.MeasureToolCore.vcxproj`,
`FindMyMouse.vcxproj`) from legacy `packages.config` and manual
`.props`/`.targets` imports to NuGet PackageReference style, simplifying
dependency management and build configuration. This includes removing
the `packages.config` file and related import/error logic, and
introducing `PackageReference` items for required packages.

[ImageResizer] Fix Fill mode not cropping image when Shrink Only was engaged and scale was 1 (#43855)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR fixes an Image Resizer issue where **Fill** mode operations were
silently aborted when **Shrink Only** was enabled (the default) and
scale was 1.0 on one dimension, resulting in files that were renamed
according to the intended target size but which actually contained the
original, unmodified image.
This also fixes a latent bug regarding square images and the **Ignore
Orientation** setting, and improves the readability of the core
`Transform` method.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
### Fix **Shrink Only** logic preventing the correct cropping of images
**Issue:**
When using **Fill** mode, the scaling factor is calculated based on the
larger dimension to ensure the image fills the target box. In scenarios
where one dimension matches the target and the other overflows (e.g.
shrinking a 100x100 pixel image to 50x100), the calculated scale factor
is `1.0`.
The previous `ShrinkOnly` logic included this:
```csharp
if (_settings.ShrinkOnly
&& _settings.SelectedSize.Unit != ResizeUnit.Percent
&& (scaleX >= 1 || scaleY >= 1))
{
return source;
}
```
This correctly prevents `ShrinkOnly` operations from returning upscaled
result images, but it also exits too early for cases where the user is
cropping the image across one dimension only, leaving the other at scale
1. Effectively, the later cropping code is never run and instead of
returning the cropped image, the original is returned. The _intended_
target dimensions are correct, which results in the filename parts not
matching the resulting image size.
**Fix:**
The logic has been split between upscaling and cropping, so:
1. If the scale on either dimension is > `1.0`, return the source
(explicitly preventing upscaling for **Shrink Only** mode).
2. If the scale is <= `1.0` then check if the original dimensions exceed
the target dimensions. If a crop is required, proceed with it even if
the scale is exactly `1.0`.
### Fix for square images triggering orientation swap
**Issue:**
The "Ignore Orientation" check in the original code used a compound
boolean check:
```csharp
(originalWidth < originalHeight != width < height)
```
This clever but less than readable statement detects orientation
mismatches. The section also includes a logic issue. When the original
image was square, `originalWidth < originalHeight` evaluated to `false`,
treating it as Landscape. If the target dimensions were Portrait, the
logic detected a mismatch and swapped the target dimensions incorrectly,
which would crop the height instead of the width.
'Fortunately' this bug was masked by the first bug, as the crop code
would never be reached anyway.
**Fix:**
The orientation detection routine was refactored to explicitly check for
Landscape vs. Portrait states. Square images are now naturally excluded,
as they have neither Landscape nor Portrait orientations. This now
prevents the dimensions from being swapped.
### Refactoring/readability
The main `Transform` method has been cleaned up:
- Replaced widespread use of `var` with `double` and `int` for dimension
and scale calculations.
- Replaced the non-obvious XOR orientation check (`a < b != c < d`) with
named booleans (`isInputLandscape`, `isTargetPortrait` etc.) to make the
intent more self-documenting.
- New and expanded comments throughout.
<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
Three new unit tests have been added to `ResizeOperationTests.cs` to
cover the **Fill** mode edge cases:
1. `TransformHonorsFillWithShrinkOnlyWhenCropRequired`: Verifies than an
image requiring a crop but no scaling is processed correctly (tests that
the original bug report is resolved).
2. `TransformHonorsFillWithShrinkOnlyWhenUpscaleAttempted`: Confirms
that when `ShrinkOnly` is set, any upscaling operations are still
blocked.
3. `TransformHonorsFillWithShrinkOnlyWhenNoChangeRequired`: Verifies
that the system returns the source if neither scaling nor cropping is
required.
I also manually verified the bug fix with a test 4000 x 6000 pixel
source file with 1920 x `Auto` **Fill** mode and **Shrink Only**
settings, mirroring the original user's settings, and their source and
target dimensions.

CmdPal: Add configuration option for Escape key behavior (#43354)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR adds a new option to the **General** page in **Settings**:
Escape key behavior — a dropdown with the following choices:
- Clear search first, then go back
- Current behavior.
- If the search box contains text, it is cleared; otherwise goes back.
- On the home page, CmdPal is dismissed.
- Go back
- Leaves the search text intact.
- If the page is not transient, the search text reappears when
returning.
- On the home page, CmdPal is dismissed.
- Hide window and go home (Always dismiss)
- Immediately dismisses CmdPal and navigates to the home page.
- Ignores the **Go home when activated** setting.
- Search text is cleared.
- Hide window
- Just hides the window.
- Intended to be used with #43355.
This implementation preserves existing behavior, except for **Always
dismiss**, which always forces navigation to the home page.

Add semantic headings to Dashboard page for accessibility (#42438)
## Summary
Fixes #37668 by adding proper semantic heading structure to the
Dashboard (Home) page, enabling screen reader users to navigate the page
efficiently using heading shortcuts.
## Problem
The Dashboard page lacked semantic heading elements, making it difficult
for users of assistive technologies to understand the page structure and
navigate between sections. When using screen readers with heading
navigation (H key in scan mode), no headings were announced, violating
WCAG 2.2 Success Criterion 1.3.1 (Info and Relationships).
## Solution
Added `AutomationProperties.HeadingLevel` attributes to provide proper
heading hierarchy:
1. **Dashboard Title** - Marked as Level 1 (H1) heading
- Added `AutomationProperties.HeadingLevel="1"` to the "Home" page title
- Follows the same pattern as `SettingsPageControl.xaml`
2. **Card Titles** - Marked as Level 2 (H2) headings
- Added `AutomationProperties.HeadingLevel="Level2"` to the Card
component
- Applies to all card sections: "Quick Access", "Shortcuts Overview",
and "Utilities"
- Follows the same pattern as `SettingsGroup.xaml`
## Resulting Structure
```
H1: Home (Dashboard Title)
├─ H2: Quick Access
├─ H2: Shortcuts Overview
└─ H2: Utilities
```
## Impact
- Screen reader users can now use heading navigation (H key) to jump
between sections on the Dashboard page
- Provides proper document structure that follows WCAG 2.2 Level A
guidelines
- No visual or functional changes - only accessibility metadata added
- Consistent with existing accessibility patterns used throughout the
Settings UI
## Testing
- Changes follow existing patterns in `SettingsPageControl.xaml` (Level
1) and `SettingsGroup.xaml` (Level 2)
- Only XAML accessibility attributes added - no code logic changes
- Minimal, surgical changes: 2 lines across 2 files

## Add Quotation mark
Add local quotation based on ~~VK_OEM_7(0xDE)~~ VK_OEM_COMMA(0xBC) key.
Not all quotes have been added, only `‟ „ ” « » ‚ , ‘ ’ › ‹ '「 」 《 》 『
』〈 〉″ ‴ ⁗`
Why not added :
- ` ⹂ ⌜ ⌝ ❛ ❜ ❝ ❞ 🙶 🙷 🙸 ' 「 」 ` its redundant and would make too much
and not readable.
- ` ﹁ ﹂ ﹃ ﹄ ` I did not put them because there use for horizontal text

This PR is currently a draft, I still need to know if adding
language-related keyboard management is a good idea or specifying the
use of a gobal key to make it easier to manage all the keyboards in one.
Some languages can use different keyboards, I think this would become
problematic if the keyboard does not match the key used by default.
However, using a universal key can also pose an issue to finding the
key. that remains to be discussed

Restore missing "Quick access" menu item in tray icon context menu (#42676)
## Summary
Restores the "Quick access" menu item that was accidentally removed from
the PowerToys tray icon context menu.
## Issue
Fixes #[issue_number]
The "Quick access" menu item was missing from the tray icon's
right-click context menu, preventing users from accessing this feature
via the tray menu.
**Expected menu:**

**Actual menu (before this fix):**

## Changes
- Added the missing `MENUITEM "Quick access\tLeft-click",
ID_QUICK_ACCESS_MENU_COMMAND` entry as the first menu item in the
`ID_TRAY_MENU` definition in `src/runner/runner.base.rc`
## Details
The menu item was accidentally removed in commit
f5797a065a5c2c448fd2b1780bd1353d712103c3. This PR restores it to its
correct position as the first item in the tray menu.
All supporting code was already in place:
- The resource ID `ID_QUICK_ACCESS_MENU_COMMAND` (40006) is defined in
`resource.base.h`
- The resource string `QUICK_ACCESS_MENU_TEXT` is defined in
`Resources.resx`
- The menu command handler in `tray_icon.cpp` opens the Quick Access
flyout window
- The localization code updates the menu text at runtime
## Testing
- ✅ Verified the menu item syntax is correct and matches existing
patterns
- ✅ Confirmed all supporting resource IDs and handler code exist
- ✅ CI build verification pending
After this fix, the tray menu will correctly display:
1. Quick access (Left-click)
2. Settings (Double-click)
3. Documentation
4. Report Bug
5. Close

CmdPal: Find app for WinGet package (#43943)
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR introduces a bit of dark magic to resolve the correct installed
app for a given WinGet package:
- Packaged apps: matched using their package family name.
- Everything else: matched using the product code (GUID) and heuristic
registry lookup.
- The registry rarely stores the executable path directly, so the logic
compares install locations with known apps.
- It attempts to pick the best candidate while avoiding uninstallers.
- It’s not science — let’s call it `#666666` magic.
- MSI API support was removed because it's too slow for this scenario.
- If no reliable match is found, the command is skipped for now. The
future plan is to redirect the user to the list of installed apps and
search by display name, but that needs some supporting infrastructure
first.
- The command order for WinGet list entries was updated: **Install /
Uninstall** is now the primary action, ensuring a stable UI since this
command is always available.

Bump our telemetry package version (#44015)
Data collection is still hard.
This just makes it so that the build pipeline uses the updated PowerToys
telemetry NuGet package. The updated package switches us over to use a
diagnostic data provider group for compliance with some new regulations
(i.e. DMA and EU Data Act).

## Validation Steps Performed
### Run manual tests from [Test Checklist
Template](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/5bc7201ae2b75b53d3a4bc35119c867ecf71c5f6/doc/releases/tests-checklist-template.md#mouse-without-borders):
* Install PowerToys on two PCs in the same local network:
- [x] Verify that PowerToys is properly installed on both PCs.
- [x] Configure Windows Firewall Rules
- ```netsh advfirewall firewall add rule
name="PowerToys.MouseWithoutBorders - mc" dir=in action=allow
program="C:\src\mc\PowerToys\x64\Debug\PowerToys.exe" enable=yes
remoteip=any profile=any protocol=tcp```
* Setup Connection:
- [x] Open MWB's settings on the first PC and click the "New Key"
button. Verify that a new security key is generated.
- [x] Copy the generated security key and paste it in the corresponding
input field in the settings of MWB on the second PC. Also enter the name
of the first PC in the required field.
- [x] Press "Connect" and verify that the machine layout now includes
two PC tiles, each displaying their respective PC names.
* Verify Connection Status:
- [x] Ensure that the border of the remote PC turns green, indicating a
successful connection.
- [x] Enter an incorrect security key and verify that the border of the
remote PC turns red, indicating a failed connection.
* Test Remote Mouse/Keyboard Control:
- [x] With the PCs connected, test the mouse/keyboard control from one
PC to another. Verify that the mouse/keyboard inputs are correctly
registered on the other PC.
- [ ] Test remote mouse/keyboard control across all four PCs, if
available. Verify that inputs are correctly registered on each connected
PC when the mouse is active there.
- unable to test - only 2 machines available
* Test Remote Control with Elevated Apps:
- note - the main PowerToys.exe must be running as a **non**-admin for
these tests
- [x] Open an elevated app on one of the PCs. Verify that without "Use
Service" enabled, PowerToys does not control the elevated app.
- [x] Enable "Use Service" in MWB's settings (need to run PowerToys.exe
as admin to enable "Use Service", then restart PowerToys.exe as
non-admin). Verify that PowerToys can now control the elevated app
remotely. Verify that MWB processes are running as LocalSystem, while
the MWB helper process is running non-elevated.
- ```get-process -Name "PowerToys.MouseWithoutBorders*" -IncludeUserName
| format-table Id, ProcessName, UserName```
- [x] Process: ```PowerToys.MouseWithoutBorders.exe``` - running as
```SYSTEM```
- [x] Process: ```PowerToys.MouseWithoutBorders.Helper.exe``` - running
as current user
- ```get-service -Name "PowerToys.*" | ft Status, Name, UserName;
get-ciminstance -Class "Win32_Service" -Filter "Name like 'PowerToys%'"
| ft ProcessId, Name```
- [x] Service: ```PowerToys.MWB.Service``` - running as ```Local
System```
- [x] Toggle "Use Service" again, verify that each time you do that, the
MWB processes are restarted.
- [x] Run PowerToys elevated on one of the machines, verify that you can
control elevated apps remotely now on that machine.
* Test Module Enable Status:
- [x] For all combinations of "Use Service"/"Run PowerToys as admin",
try enabling/disabling MWB module and verify that it's indeed being
toggled using task manager.
* Test Disconnection/Reconnection:
- [x] Disconnect one of the PCs from network. Verify that the machine
layout updates to reflect the disconnection.
- [x] Do the same, but now by exiting PowerToys.
- [ ] Start PowerToys again, verify that the PCs are reconnected.
* Test Various Local Network Conditions:
- [ ] Test MWB performance under various network conditions (e.g., low
bandwidth, high latency). Verify that the tool maintains a stable
connection and functions correctly.
* Clipboard Sharing:
- [x] Copy some text on one PC and verify that the same text can be
pasted on another PC.
- [x] Use the screenshot key and Win+Shift+S to take a screenshot on one
PC and verify that the screenshot can be pasted on another PC.
- [x] Copy a file in Windows Explorer and verify that the file can be
pasted on another PC. Make sure the file size is below 100MB.
- [x] Try to copy multiple files and directories and verify that it's
not possible (only the first selected file is being copied).
* Drag and Drop:
- [ ] Drag a file from Windows Explorer on one PC, cross the screen
border onto another PC, and release it there. Verify that the file is
copied to the other PC. Make sure the file size is below 100MB.
- [ ] While dragging the file, verify that a corresponding icon is
displayed under the mouse cursor.
- [ ] Without moving the mouse from one PC to the target PC, press
CTRL+ALT+F1/2/3/4 hotkey to switch to the target PC directly and verify
that file sharing/dropping is not working.
* Lock and Unlock with "Use Service" Enabled:
- [x] Enable "Use Service" in MWB's settings.
- [x] Lock a remote PC using Win+L, move the mouse to it remotely, and

CmdPal: Fix grid views (#43991)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR fixes the crash due to binding to a trimmed property. For this
it converts runtime bindings on GridView to use `{x:Bind}` so this issue
can't happen in the future.
- Fixes a crash related to the `Visibility` property in gallery/grid
views when trimmed during AOT builds.
- Fixes ShowTitle and ShowSubtitle properties, they are now taken into
account in a view.
- Improves UI layout, removes some margins and maches the corner radius
of the item contaienr with the item content in the gallery view.
- Refactores gallery and grid views to move logic from the view to the
view model so we can x:Bind to them.
- Replaces `{Binding}` with `{x:Bind}` to improve performance and enable
compile-time binding validation.
- Properties related to grids are splatted on to the common
`IGridPropertiesViewModel` interface. Subclassing would add extra
overhead without substential benefit.
- Adds new samples to showcase various grid view configurations.

CmdPal: Add custom search engine option to Web Search extension (#43941)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR allows user to customize a search query in Command Palette's Web
Search built-in extension. This will also solve a problem with some
browser that doesn't handle argument in form "? <query>" as it will
allow user to specify the complete URI.
- Introduces a new text box in Web Search extension settings for
specifying a custom search engine URI
- If the text box is non-empty, the provided URI is used for queries
- If left empty, the extension defaults to previous behavior, sending
queries in the format "? query"

CmdPal: Add mini dev center (#43939)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR introduces a small ribbon to the CmdPal for app developers. The
dev ribbon is dynamically added to the main window in local (non-CI)
builds. It shows the number of logged errors and warnings, the current
build configuration (Debug or Release), and whether it’s built with AOT.
The flyout shows the latest errors and warnings and lets you quickly
access the logs.

CmdPal: Use Shell API to determine the default browser in WebSearch (#43339)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR introduces a new method for determining the default browser
using the Windows Shell API. The new provider selects the browser
associated with the HTTPS protocol (falling back to HTTP if necessary).
The original implementation is retained as a fallback for now, and the
codebase is prepared for future extensions (e.g., manual default-browser
selection).
As a flyby, it also fixes an issue where commands continued showing the
previous browser name if the user changed their default browser while
the Command Palette was running.
## One-liner for change log
Fixed default browser selection in the Web Search built-in extension.

CmdPal: Add option to return to home automatically after a delay (#43551)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR replaces the Go home when activated setting with a new
Automatically return home option. This allows users to specify how long
the Command Palette should wait after being dismissed before
automatically returning to the home page. It also introduces migration
logic to transition from the old setting to the new one.

Update Command Palette's Learn More string to be consistent with other utilities (#43898)
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request
In the PowerToys "What's new" window, every utility has the text "Learn
more about <utility name>" next to the "Settings" button. Examples
below:
<img width="247" height="38" alt="learnmore-fancyzones"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/fecdeb4b-e01c-438d-8d11-c056e613768e"

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ffb0c801-5b89-46d1-b493-b57287303e65"
/>
The only exception is the Command Palette utility which just says "Learn
more".

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/232c11cd-b621-46eb-87f1-d3fc708d6286"
/>
This is an inconsistency and this PR fixes that string.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
This was because of my recent change to the timed mode. The `Subscribe`
method on the `Observable` interval accidentally wired the completion
logic to the **Error** handler instead of the **Completion** handler
because of the use of a discard `_` instead of an empty parameter list
`()`. As a result of the incorrect overload being called, Awake stayed
in the Timed state despite the timer reaching zero.
<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
Confirmed that the timed mode times out and exits upon expiry.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
### User-Facing Fixes
#### 1. Module list glitching when toggling enabled state
When enabling or disabling a module from the "Utilities" list, the
entire list would flicker and redraw, causing other toggles to glitch.
This made it appear as if multiple modules were being affected by a
single change.
**Root cause**
The `AllModules` ObservableCollection was being completely cleared and
re-populated on every change, forcing the UI to destroy and recreate all
list items.
**Fix**
Refactored collection updates to modify items in-place:
- Introduced `_moduleItems` master list, built once during
initialization.
- `RefreshModuleList()` now updates properties without clearing
collections
- `SortModuleList()` uses `ObservableCollection.Move()` instead of
`Clear()`/`Add()`
#### 2. Incorrect sort menu checkmark behaviour
The checkmark in the "Sort by" menu would not update correctly when
changing sort order, sometimes showing the incorrect item checked, or
even both at once.
**Root cause**
The `IsChecked` prop on the `ToggleMenuFlyoutItem` is bound to
`DashboardSortOrder`, but the binding was not updating because the
ViewModel didn't raise a property change notification when the sort
order was changed.
**Fix**
Added `OnPropertyChanged(nameof(DashboardSortOrder))` in
`SortModuleList()`.
### Code quality improvements
1. Renamed `GetShortcutModules()` to `RefreshShortcutModules()`. The
original name implied a getter, but the routine actually affects state
by rebuilding the shortcut and action lists, violating the Command-Query
Separation principle.
2. Added an `_isUpdatingFromUI` flag as a defensive measure against
circular updates when a UI toggle is changed.
3. Separation of concerns for operations on the modules list. Building,
sorting and refreshing it are separated.
4. Added comments and XML doc headers for new methods. Included brief
description of GPO locking behaviour.
<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
- Verified that toggling modules in the list no longer causes the list
to flicker or for other toggles to glitch.
- Confirmed that the sort order checkmarks update correctly and reflect
the current sort order.
- Tested GPO policy settings are still queried as before.
- Checked sort behaviour is unaffected.

Fix OOBE Mouse Utilities crash by correcting localization key (#43664)
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request
- The OOBE Mouse Utilities page crashed when selected because the
TextBlock with x:Uid="Oobe_MouseUtils_MousePointerCrosshairs" tried to
bind a Description property that doesn’t exist.
- Updated Resources.resw so the string entry is named
Oobe_MouseUtils_MousePointerCrosshairs_Description.Text, matching the
markdown description control instead of the TextBlock.
- With the correct resource key, the XAML loader no longer resolves an
invalid property and navigation succeeds.

BugReportTool: replace cziplib with tar.exe (#41127)
BugReportTool is the last consumer in the PowerToys repo of cziplib, a
library we use to produce ZIP files.
This pull request replaces cziplib with a simple CreateProcess call that
spawns `tar.exe`, which comes with Windows as of RS4 and can produce ZIP
files!
I've tested this by producing a bug report archive and attempting to
open it with File Explorer. It works fine.
We have taken every precaution to ensure that we do not allow any
attacker-controlled input to tar's command line. We are *not* using
`system()`, and we are not opening up a vector through which a nefarious
caller can perform shell injection.
We do not pass filenames to tar except that of the final archive. We do
not pass directory names to tar; we rely on the current directory
instead.

that Contributor.
3. Distribution Obligations.
3.1. Application of License.
The Modifications which You create or to which You contribute are
governed by the terms of this License, including without limitation
Section 2.2. The Source Code version of Covered Code may be
distributed only under the terms of this License or a future version
of this License released under Section 6.1, and You must include a
copy of this License with every copy of the Source Code You
distribute. You may not offer or impose any terms on any Source Code
version that alters or restricts the applicable version of this
License or the recipients' rights hereunder. However, You may include
an additional document offering the additional rights described in
Section 3.5.
3.2. Availability of Source Code.
Any Modification which You create or to which You contribute must be
made available in Source Code form under the terms of this License
either on the same media as an Executable version or via an accepted
Electronic Distribution Mechanism to anyone to whom you made an
Executable version available; and if made available via Electronic
Distribution Mechanism, must remain available for at least twelve (12)
months after the date it initially became available, or at least six
(6) months after a subsequent version of that particular Modification
has been made available to such recipients. You are responsible for
ensuring that the Source Code version remains available even if the
Electronic Distribution Mechanism is maintained by a third party.
3.3. Description of Modifications.
You must cause all Covered Code to which You contribute to contain a
file documenting the changes You made to create that Covered Code and
the date of any change. You must include a prominent statement that
the Modification is derived, directly or indirectly, from Original
Code provided by the Initial Developer and including the name of the
Initial Developer in (a) the Source Code, and (b) in any notice in an
Executable version or related documentation in which You describe the
origin or ownership of the Covered Code.
3.4. Intellectual Property Matters
(a) Third Party Claims.
If Contributor has knowledge that a license under a third party's
intellectual property rights is required to exercise the rights
granted by such Contributor under Sections 2.1 or 2.2,
Contributor must include a text file with the Source Code
distribution titled "LEGAL" which describes the claim and the
party making the claim in sufficient detail that a recipient will
know whom to contact. If Contributor obtains such knowledge after
the Modification is made available as described in Section 3.2,
Contributor shall promptly modify the LEGAL file in all copies
Contributor makes available thereafter and shall take other steps
(such as notifying appropriate mailing lists or newsgroups)
reasonably calculated to inform those who received the Covered
Code that new knowledge has been obtained.
(b) Contributor APIs.
If Contributor's Modifications include an application programming
interface and Contributor has knowledge of patent licenses which
are reasonably necessary to implement that API, Contributor must
also include this information in the LEGAL file.
(c) Representations.
Contributor represents that, except as disclosed pursuant to
Section 3.4(a) above, Contributor believes that Contributor's
Modifications are Contributor's original creation(s) and/or
Contributor has sufficient rights to grant the rights conveyed by
this License.
3.5. Required Notices.
You must duplicate the notice in Exhibit A in each file of the Source
Code. If it is not possible to put such notice in a particular Source
Code file due to its structure, then You must include such notice in a
location (such as a relevant directory) where a user would be likely
to look for such a notice. If You created one or more Modification(s)
You may add your name as a Contributor to the notice described in
Exhibit A. You must also duplicate this License in any documentation
for the Source Code where You describe recipients' rights or ownership
rights relating to Covered Code. You may choose to offer, and to
charge a fee for, warranty, support, indemnity or liability
obligations to one or more recipients of Covered Code. However, You
may do so only on Your own behalf, and not on behalf of the Initial
Developer or any Contributor. You must make it absolutely clear than
any such warranty, support, indemnity or liability obligation is
offered by You alone, and You hereby agree to indemnify the Initial
Developer and every Contributor for any liability incurred by the
Initial Developer or such Contributor as a result of warranty,
support, indemnity or liability terms You offer.
3.6. Distribution of Executable Versions.
You may distribute Covered Code in Executable form only if the
requirements of Section 3.1-3.5 have been met for that Covered Code,
and if You include a notice stating that the Source Code version of
the Covered Code is available under the terms of this License,
including a description of how and where You have fulfilled the
obligations of Section 3.2. The notice must be conspicuously included
in any notice in an Executable version, related documentation or
collateral in which You describe recipients' rights relating to the
Covered Code. You may distribute the Executable version of Covered
Code or ownership rights under a license of Your choice, which may
contain terms different from this License, provided that You are in
compliance with the terms of this License and that the license for the
Executable version does not attempt to limit or alter the recipient's
rights in the Source Code version from the rights set forth in this
License. If You distribute the Executable version under a different
license You must make it absolutely clear that any terms which differ
from this License are offered by You alone, not by the Initial
Developer or any Contributor. You hereby agree to indemnify the
Initial Developer and every Contributor for any liability incurred by
the Initial Developer or such Contributor as a result of any such
terms You offer.
3.7. Larger Works.
You may create a Larger Work by combining Covered Code with other code
not governed by the terms of this License and distribute the Larger
Work as a single product. In such a case, You must make sure the
requirements of this License are fulfilled for the Covered Code.
4. Inability to Comply Due to Statute or Regulation.
If it is impossible for You to comply with any of the terms of this
License with respect to some or all of the Covered Code due to
statute, judicial order, or regulation then You must: (a) comply with
the terms of this License to the maximum extent possible; and (b)
describe the limitations and the code they affect. Such description
must be included in the LEGAL file described in Section 3.4 and must
be included with all distributions of the Source Code. Except to the
extent prohibited by statute or regulation, such description must be
sufficiently detailed for a recipient of ordinary skill to be able to
understand it.
5. Application of this License.
This License applies to code to which the Initial Developer has
attached the notice in Exhibit A and to related Covered Code.
6. Versions of the License.
6.1. New Versions.
Netscape Communications Corporation ("Netscape") may publish revised
and/or new versions of the License from time to time. Each version
will be given a distinguishing version number.
6.2. Effect of New Versions.
Once Covered Code has been published under a particular version of the
License, You may always continue to use it under the terms of that
version. You may also choose to use such Covered Code under the terms
of any subsequent version of the License published by Netscape. No one
other than Netscape has the right to modify the terms applicable to
Covered Code created under this License.
6.3. Derivative Works.
If You create or use a modified version of this License (which you may
only do in order to apply it to code which is not already Covered Code
governed by this License), You must (a) rename Your license so that
the phrases "Mozilla", "MOZILLAPL", "MOZPL", "Netscape",
"MPL", "NPL" or any confusingly similar phrase do not appear in your
license (except to note that your license differs from this License)
and (b) otherwise make it clear that Your version of the license
contains terms which differ from the Mozilla Public License and
Netscape Public License. (Filling in the name of the Initial
Developer, Original Code or Contributor in the notice described in
Exhibit A shall not of themselves be deemed to be modifications of
this License.)
7. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY.
COVERED CODE IS PROVIDED UNDER THIS LICENSE ON AN "AS IS" BASIS,
WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING,
WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES THAT THE COVERED CODE IS FREE OF
DEFECTS, MERCHANTABLE, FIT FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGING.
THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE COVERED CODE
IS WITH YOU. SHOULD ANY COVERED CODE PROVE DEFECTIVE IN ANY RESPECT,
YOU (NOT THE INITIAL DEVELOPER OR ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR) ASSUME THE
COST OF ANY NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. THIS DISCLAIMER
OF WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS LICENSE. NO USE OF
ANY COVERED CODE IS AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER EXCEPT UNDER THIS DISCLAIMER.
8. TERMINATION.
8.1. This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate
automatically if You fail to comply with terms herein and fail to cure
such breach within 30 days of becoming aware of the breach. All
sublicenses to the Covered Code which are properly granted shall
survive any termination of this License. Provisions which, by their
nature, must remain in effect beyond the termination of this License
shall survive.
8.2. If You initiate litigation by asserting a patent infringement
claim (excluding declatory judgment actions) against Initial Developer
or a Contributor (the Initial Developer or Contributor against whom
You file such action is referred to as "Participant") alleging that:
(a) such Participant's Contributor Version directly or indirectly
infringes any patent, then any and all rights granted by such
Participant to You under Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 of this License
shall, upon 60 days notice from Participant terminate prospectively,
unless if within 60 days after receipt of notice You either: (i)
agree in writing to pay Participant a mutually agreeable reasonable
royalty for Your past and future use of Modifications made by such
Participant, or (ii) withdraw Your litigation claim with respect to
the Contributor Version against such Participant. If within 60 days
of notice, a reasonable royalty and payment arrangement are not
mutually agreed upon in writing by the parties or the litigation claim
is not withdrawn, the rights granted by Participant to You under
Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 automatically terminate at the expiration of
the 60 day notice period specified above.
(b) any software, hardware, or device, other than such Participant's
Contributor Version, directly or indirectly infringes any patent, then
any rights granted to You by such Participant under Sections 2.1(b)
and 2.2(b) are revoked effective as of the date You first made, used,
sold, distributed, or had made, Modifications made by that
Participant.
8.3. If You assert a patent infringement claim against Participant
alleging that such Participant's Contributor Version directly or
indirectly infringes any patent where such claim is resolved (such as
by license or settlement) prior to the initiation of patent
infringement litigation, then the reasonable value of the licenses
granted by such Participant under Sections 2.1 or 2.2 shall be taken
into account in determining the amount or value of any payment or
license.
8.4. In the event of termination under Sections 8.1 or 8.2 above,
all end user license agreements (excluding distributors and resellers)
which have been validly granted by You or any distributor hereunder
prior to termination shall survive termination.
9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER TORT
(INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL YOU, THE INITIAL
DEVELOPER, ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR, OR ANY DISTRIBUTOR OF COVERED CODE,
OR ANY SUPPLIER OF ANY OF SUCH PARTIES, BE LIABLE TO ANY PERSON FOR
ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY
CHARACTER INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL,
WORK STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR ANY AND ALL OTHER
COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY SHALL HAVE BEEN
INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION OF
LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY
RESULTING FROM SUCH PARTY'S NEGLIGENCE TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE LAW
PROHIBITS SUCH LIMITATION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE
EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO
THIS EXCLUSION AND LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
10. U.S. GOVERNMENT END USERS.
The Covered Code is a "commercial item," as that term is defined in
48 C.F.R. 2.101 (Oct. 1995), consisting of "commercial computer
software" and "commercial computer software documentation," as such
terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212 (Sept. 1995). Consistent with 48
C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4 (June 1995),
all U.S. Government End Users acquire Covered Code with only those
rights set forth herein.
11. MISCELLANEOUS.
This License represents the complete agreement concerning subject
matter hereof. If any provision of this License is held to be
unenforceable, such provision shall be reformed only to the extent
necessary to make it enforceable. This License shall be governed by
California law provisions (except to the extent applicable law, if
any, provides otherwise), excluding its conflict-of-law provisions.
With respect to disputes in which at least one party is a citizen of,
or an entity chartered or registered to do business in the United
States of America, any litigation relating to this License shall be
subject to the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts of the Northern
District of California, with venue lying in Santa Clara County,
California, with the losing party responsible for costs, including
without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses. The application of the United Nations Convention on
Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded.
Any law or regulation which provides that the language of a contract
shall be construed against the drafter shall not apply to this
License.
12. RESPONSIBILITY FOR CLAIMS.
As between Initial Developer and the Contributors, each party is
responsible for claims and damages arising, directly or indirectly,
out of its utilization of rights under this License and You agree to
work with Initial Developer and Contributors to distribute such
responsibility on an equitable basis. Nothing herein is intended or
shall be deemed to constitute any admission of liability.
13. MULTIPLE-LICENSED CODE.
Initial Developer may designate portions of the Covered Code as
"Multiple-Licensed". "Multiple-Licensed" means that the Initial
Developer permits you to utilize portions of the Covered Code under
Your choice of the NPL or the alternative licenses, if any, specified
by the Initial Developer in the file described in Exhibit A.

to cause the direction or management of such entity, whether by
contract or otherwise, or (b) ownership of more than fifty percent
(50%) of the outstanding shares or beneficial ownership of such
entity.
2. Source Code License.
2.1. The Initial Developer Grant.
The Initial Developer hereby grants You a world-wide, royalty-free,
non-exclusive license, subject to third party intellectual property
claims:
(a) under intellectual property rights (other than patent or
trademark) Licensable by Initial Developer to use, reproduce,
modify, display, perform, sublicense and distribute the Original
Code (or portions thereof) with or without Modifications, and/or
as part of a Larger Work; and
(b) under Patents Claims infringed by the making, using or
selling of Original Code, to make, have made, use, practice,
sell, and offer for sale, and/or otherwise dispose of the
Original Code (or portions thereof).
(c) the licenses granted in this Section 2.1(a) and (b) are
effective on the date Initial Developer first distributes
Original Code under the terms of this License.
(d) Notwithstanding Section 2.1(b) above, no patent license is
granted: 1) for code that You delete from the Original Code; 2)
separate from the Original Code; or 3) for infringements caused
by: i) the modification of the Original Code or ii) the
combination of the Original Code with other software or devices.
2.2. Contributor Grant.
Subject to third party intellectual property claims, each Contributor
hereby grants You a world-wide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license
(a) under intellectual property rights (other than patent or
trademark) Licensable by Contributor, to use, reproduce, modify,
display, perform, sublicense and distribute the Modifications
created by such Contributor (or portions thereof) either on an
unmodified basis, with other Modifications, as Covered Code
and/or as part of a Larger Work; and
(b) under Patent Claims infringed by the making, using, or
selling of Modifications made by that Contributor either alone
and/or in combination with its Contributor Version (or portions
of such combination), to make, use, sell, offer for sale, have
made, and/or otherwise dispose of: 1) Modifications made by that
Contributor (or portions thereof); and 2) the combination of
Modifications made by that Contributor with its Contributor
Version (or portions of such combination).
(c) the licenses granted in Sections 2.2(a) and 2.2(b) are
effective on the date Contributor first makes Commercial Use of
the Covered Code.
(d) Notwithstanding Section 2.2(b) above, no patent license is
granted: 1) for any code that Contributor has deleted from the
Contributor Version; 2) separate from the Contributor Version;
3) for infringements caused by: i) third party modifications of
Contributor Version or ii) the combination of Modifications made
by that Contributor with other software (except as part of the
Contributor Version) or other devices; or 4) under Patent Claims
infringed by Covered Code in the absence of Modifications made by
that Contributor.
3. Distribution Obligations.
3.1. Application of License.
The Modifications which You create or to which You contribute are
governed by the terms of this License, including without limitation
Section 2.2. The Source Code version of Covered Code may be
distributed only under the terms of this License or a future version
of this License released under Section 6.1, and You must include a
copy of this License with every copy of the Source Code You
distribute. You may not offer or impose any terms on any Source Code
version that alters or restricts the applicable version of this
License or the recipients' rights hereunder. However, You may include
an additional document offering the additional rights described in
Section 3.5.
3.2. Availability of Source Code.
Any Modification which You create or to which You contribute must be
made available in Source Code form under the terms of this License
either on the same media as an Executable version or via an accepted
Electronic Distribution Mechanism to anyone to whom you made an
Executable version available; and if made available via Electronic
Distribution Mechanism, must remain available for at least twelve (12)
months after the date it initially became available, or at least six
(6) months after a subsequent version of that particular Modification
has been made available to such recipients. You are responsible for
ensuring that the Source Code version remains available even if the
Electronic Distribution Mechanism is maintained by a third party.
3.3. Description of Modifications.
You must cause all Covered Code to which You contribute to contain a
file documenting the changes You made to create that Covered Code and
the date of any change. You must include a prominent statement that
the Modification is derived, directly or indirectly, from Original
Code provided by the Initial Developer and including the name of the
Initial Developer in (a) the Source Code, and (b) in any notice in an
Executable version or related documentation in which You describe the
origin or ownership of the Covered Code.
3.4. Intellectual Property Matters
(a) Third Party Claims.
If Contributor has knowledge that a license under a third party's
intellectual property rights is required to exercise the rights
granted by such Contributor under Sections 2.1 or 2.2,
Contributor must include a text file with the Source Code
distribution titled "LEGAL" which describes the claim and the
party making the claim in sufficient detail that a recipient will
know whom to contact. If Contributor obtains such knowledge after
the Modification is made available as described in Section 3.2,
Contributor shall promptly modify the LEGAL file in all copies
Contributor makes available thereafter and shall take other steps
(such as notifying appropriate mailing lists or newsgroups)
reasonably calculated to inform those who received the Covered
Code that new knowledge has been obtained.
(b) Contributor APIs.
If Contributor's Modifications include an application programming
interface and Contributor has knowledge of patent licenses which
are reasonably necessary to implement that API, Contributor must
also include this information in the LEGAL file.
(c) Representations.
Contributor represents that, except as disclosed pursuant to
Section 3.4(a) above, Contributor believes that Contributor's
Modifications are Contributor's original creation(s) and/or
Contributor has sufficient rights to grant the rights conveyed by
this License.
3.5. Required Notices.
You must duplicate the notice in Exhibit A in each file of the Source
Code. If it is not possible to put such notice in a particular Source
Code file due to its structure, then You must include such notice in a
location (such as a relevant directory) where a user would be likely
to look for such a notice. If You created one or more Modification(s)
You may add your name as a Contributor to the notice described in
Exhibit A. You must also duplicate this License in any documentation
for the Source Code where You describe recipients' rights or ownership
rights relating to Covered Code. You may choose to offer, and to
charge a fee for, warranty, support, indemnity or liability
obligations to one or more recipients of Covered Code. However, You
may do so only on Your own behalf, and not on behalf of the Initial
Developer or any Contributor. You must make it absolutely clear than
any such warranty, support, indemnity or liability obligation is
offered by You alone, and You hereby agree to indemnify the Initial
Developer and every Contributor for any liability incurred by the
Initial Developer or such Contributor as a result of warranty,
support, indemnity or liability terms You offer.
3.6. Distribution of Executable Versions.
You may distribute Covered Code in Executable form only if the
requirements of Section 3.1-3.5 have been met for that Covered Code,
and if You include a notice stating that the Source Code version of
the Covered Code is available under the terms of this License,
including a description of how and where You have fulfilled the
obligations of Section 3.2. The notice must be conspicuously included
in any notice in an Executable version, related documentation or
collateral in which You describe recipients' rights relating to the
Covered Code. You may distribute the Executable version of Covered
Code or ownership rights under a license of Your choice, which may
contain terms different from this License, provided that You are in
compliance with the terms of this License and that the license for the
Executable version does not attempt to limit or alter the recipient's
rights in the Source Code version from the rights set forth in this
License. If You distribute the Executable version under a different
license You must make it absolutely clear that any terms which differ
from this License are offered by You alone, not by the Initial
Developer or any Contributor. You hereby agree to indemnify the
Initial Developer and every Contributor for any liability incurred by
the Initial Developer or such Contributor as a result of any such
terms You offer.
3.7. Larger Works.
You may create a Larger Work by combining Covered Code with other code
not governed by the terms of this License and distribute the Larger
Work as a single product. In such a case, You must make sure the
requirements of this License are fulfilled for the Covered Code.
4. Inability to Comply Due to Statute or Regulation.
If it is impossible for You to comply with any of the terms of this
License with respect to some or all of the Covered Code due to
statute, judicial order, or regulation then You must: (a) comply with
the terms of this License to the maximum extent possible; and (b)
describe the limitations and the code they affect. Such description
must be included in the LEGAL file described in Section 3.4 and must
be included with all distributions of the Source Code. Except to the
extent prohibited by statute or regulation, such description must be
sufficiently detailed for a recipient of ordinary skill to be able to
understand it.
5. Application of this License.
This License applies to code to which the Initial Developer has
attached the notice in Exhibit A and to related Covered Code.
6. Versions of the License.
6.1. New Versions.
Netscape Communications Corporation ("Netscape") may publish revised
and/or new versions of the License from time to time. Each version
will be given a distinguishing version number.
6.2. Effect of New Versions.
Once Covered Code has been published under a particular version of the
License, You may always continue to use it under the terms of that
version. You may also choose to use such Covered Code under the terms
of any subsequent version of the License published by Netscape. No one
other than Netscape has the right to modify the terms applicable to
Covered Code created under this License.
6.3. Derivative Works.
If You create or use a modified version of this License (which you may
only do in order to apply it to code which is not already Covered Code
governed by this License), You must (a) rename Your license so that
the phrases "Mozilla", "MOZILLAPL", "MOZPL", "Netscape",
"MPL", "NPL" or any confusingly similar phrase do not appear in your
license (except to note that your license differs from this License)
and (b) otherwise make it clear that Your version of the license
contains terms which differ from the Mozilla Public License and
Netscape Public License. (Filling in the name of the Initial
Developer, Original Code or Contributor in the notice described in
Exhibit A shall not of themselves be deemed to be modifications of
this License.)
7. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY.
COVERED CODE IS PROVIDED UNDER THIS LICENSE ON AN "AS IS" BASIS,
WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING,
WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES THAT THE COVERED CODE IS FREE OF
DEFECTS, MERCHANTABLE, FIT FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGING.
THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE COVERED CODE
IS WITH YOU. SHOULD ANY COVERED CODE PROVE DEFECTIVE IN ANY RESPECT,
YOU (NOT THE INITIAL DEVELOPER OR ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR) ASSUME THE
COST OF ANY NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. THIS DISCLAIMER
OF WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS LICENSE. NO USE OF
ANY COVERED CODE IS AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER EXCEPT UNDER THIS DISCLAIMER.
8. TERMINATION.
8.1. This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate
automatically if You fail to comply with terms herein and fail to cure
such breach within 30 days of becoming aware of the breach. All
sublicenses to the Covered Code which are properly granted shall
survive any termination of this License. Provisions which, by their
nature, must remain in effect beyond the termination of this License
shall survive.
8.2. If You initiate litigation by asserting a patent infringement
claim (excluding declatory judgment actions) against Initial Developer
or a Contributor (the Initial Developer or Contributor against whom
You file such action is referred to as "Participant") alleging that:
(a) such Participant's Contributor Version directly or indirectly
infringes any patent, then any and all rights granted by such
Participant to You under Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 of this License
shall, upon 60 days notice from Participant terminate prospectively,
unless if within 60 days after receipt of notice You either: (i)
agree in writing to pay Participant a mutually agreeable reasonable
royalty for Your past and future use of Modifications made by such
Participant, or (ii) withdraw Your litigation claim with respect to
the Contributor Version against such Participant. If within 60 days
of notice, a reasonable royalty and payment arrangement are not
mutually agreed upon in writing by the parties or the litigation claim
is not withdrawn, the rights granted by Participant to You under
Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 automatically terminate at the expiration of
the 60 day notice period specified above.
(b) any software, hardware, or device, other than such Participant's
Contributor Version, directly or indirectly infringes any patent, then
any rights granted to You by such Participant under Sections 2.1(b)
and 2.2(b) are revoked effective as of the date You first made, used,
sold, distributed, or had made, Modifications made by that
Participant.
8.3. If You assert a patent infringement claim against Participant
alleging that such Participant's Contributor Version directly or
indirectly infringes any patent where such claim is resolved (such as
by license or settlement) prior to the initiation of patent
infringement litigation, then the reasonable value of the licenses
granted by such Participant under Sections 2.1 or 2.2 shall be taken
into account in determining the amount or value of any payment or
license.
8.4. In the event of termination under Sections 8.1 or 8.2 above,
all end user license agreements (excluding distributors and resellers)
which have been validly granted by You or any distributor hereunder
prior to termination shall survive termination.
9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER TORT
(INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL YOU, THE INITIAL
DEVELOPER, ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR, OR ANY DISTRIBUTOR OF COVERED CODE,
OR ANY SUPPLIER OF ANY OF SUCH PARTIES, BE LIABLE TO ANY PERSON FOR
ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY
CHARACTER INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL,
WORK STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR ANY AND ALL OTHER
COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY SHALL HAVE BEEN
INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION OF
LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY
RESULTING FROM SUCH PARTY'S NEGLIGENCE TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE LAW
PROHIBITS SUCH LIMITATION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE
EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO
THIS EXCLUSION AND LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
10. U.S. GOVERNMENT END USERS.
The Covered Code is a "commercial item," as that term is defined in
48 C.F.R. 2.101 (Oct. 1995), consisting of "commercial computer
software" and "commercial computer software documentation," as such
terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212 (Sept. 1995). Consistent with 48
C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4 (June 1995),
all U.S. Government End Users acquire Covered Code with only those
rights set forth herein.
11. MISCELLANEOUS.
This License represents the complete agreement concerning subject
matter hereof. If any provision of this License is held to be
unenforceable, such provision shall be reformed only to the extent
necessary to make it enforceable. This License shall be governed by
California law provisions (except to the extent applicable law, if
any, provides otherwise), excluding its conflict-of-law provisions.
With respect to disputes in which at least one party is a citizen of,
or an entity chartered or registered to do business in the United
States of America, any litigation relating to this License shall be
subject to the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts of the Northern
District of California, with venue lying in Santa Clara County,
California, with the losing party responsible for costs, including
without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses. The application of the United Nations Convention on
Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded.
Any law or regulation which provides that the language of a contract
shall be construed against the drafter shall not apply to this
License.
12. RESPONSIBILITY FOR CLAIMS.
As between Initial Developer and the Contributors, each party is
responsible for claims and damages arising, directly or indirectly,
out of its utilization of rights under this License and You agree to
work with Initial Developer and Contributors to distribute such
responsibility on an equitable basis. Nothing herein is intended or
shall be deemed to constitute any admission of liability.
13. MULTIPLE-LICENSED CODE.
Initial Developer may designate portions of the Covered Code as
"Multiple-Licensed". "Multiple-Licensed" means that the Initial
Developer permits you to utilize portions of the Covered Code under
Your choice of the NPL or the alternative licenses, if any, specified
by the Initial Developer in the file described in Exhibit A.

CmdPal: Fix grid views (#43991)
This PR fixes the crash due to binding to a trimmed property. For this
it converts runtime bindings on GridView to use `{x:Bind}` so this issue
can't happen in the future.
- Fixes a crash related to the `Visibility` property in gallery/grid
views when trimmed during AOT builds.
- Fixes ShowTitle and ShowSubtitle properties, they are now taken into
account in a view.
- Improves UI layout, removes some margins and maches the corner radius
of the item contaienr with the item content in the gallery view.
- Refactores gallery and grid views to move logic from the view to the
view model so we can x:Bind to them.
- Replaces `{Binding}` with `{x:Bind}` to improve performance and enable
compile-time binding validation.
- Properties related to grids are splatted on to the common
`IGridPropertiesViewModel` interface. Subclassing would add extra
overhead without substential benefit.
- Adds new samples to showcase various grid view configurations.
A) Gallery view (with title and subtitle)

CmdPal: Add custom search engine option to Web Search extension (#43941)
This PR allows user to customize a search query in Command Palette's Web
Search built-in extension. This will also solve a problem with some
browser that doesn't handle argument in form "? <query>" as it will
allow user to specify the complete URI.
- Introduces a new text box in Web Search extension settings for
specifying a custom search engine URI
- If the text box is non-empty, the provided URI is used for queries
- If left empty, the extension defaults to previous behavior, sending
queries in the format "? query"

CmdPal: Add mini dev center (#43939)
This PR introduces a small ribbon to the CmdPal for app developers. The
dev ribbon is dynamically added to the main window in local (non-CI)
builds. It shows the number of logged errors and warnings, the current
build configuration (Debug or Release), and whether it’s built with AOT.
The flyout shows the latest errors and warnings and lets you quickly

CmdPal: Use Shell API to determine the default browser in WebSearch (#43339)
This PR introduces a new method for determining the default browser
using the Windows Shell API. The new provider selects the browser
associated with the HTTPS protocol (falling back to HTTP if necessary).
The original implementation is retained as a fallback for now, and the
codebase is prepared for future extensions (e.g., manual default-browser
selection).
As a flyby, it also fixes an issue where commands continued showing the
previous browser name if the user changed their default browser while
the Command Palette was running.
Fixed default browser selection in the Web Search built-in extension.

CmdPal: Add option to return to home automatically after a delay (#43551)
This PR replaces the Go home when activated setting with a new
Automatically return home option. This allows users to specify how long
the Command Palette should wait after being dismissed before
automatically returning to the home page. It also introduces migration
logic to transition from the old setting to the new one.

Update Command Palette's Learn More string to be consistent with other utilities (#43898)
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
In the PowerToys "What's new" window, every utility has the text "Learn
more about <utility name>" next to the "Settings" button. Examples
below:
<img width="247" height="38" alt="learnmore-fancyzones"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/fecdeb4b-e01c-438d-8d11-c056e613768e"

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ffb0c801-5b89-46d1-b493-b57287303e65"
/>
The only exception is the Command Palette utility which just says "Learn
more".
<img width="152" height="32" alt="learnmore-cmdpal"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/232c11cd-b621-46eb-87f1-d3fc708d6286"
/>
This is an inconsistency and this PR fixes that string.

CmdPal: Improve Command Palette behavior in "Last position" mode (#43543)
This PR improves Command Palette behavior in “Last position” mode:
- Correctly handles DPI changes between monitors.
- Ensures the window is always visible — if it’s fully off-screen or has
less than 100px visible on any axis, it is re-centered.

This was because of my recent change to the timed mode. The `Subscribe`
method on the `Observable` interval accidentally wired the completion
logic to the **Error** handler instead of the **Completion** handler
because of the use of a discard `_` instead of an empty parameter list
`()`. As a result of the incorrect overload being called, Awake stayed
in the Timed state despite the timer reaching zero.
<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
Confirmed that the timed mode times out and exits upon expiry.

<!-- Provide a more detailed description of the PR, other things fixed,
or any additional comments/features here -->
When enabling or disabling a module from the "Utilities" list, the
entire list would flicker and redraw, causing other toggles to glitch.
This made it appear as if multiple modules were being affected by a
single change.
**Root cause**
The `AllModules` ObservableCollection was being completely cleared and
re-populated on every change, forcing the UI to destroy and recreate all
list items.
**Fix**
Refactored collection updates to modify items in-place:
- Introduced `_moduleItems` master list, built once during
initialization.
- `RefreshModuleList()` now updates properties without clearing
collections
- `SortModuleList()` uses `ObservableCollection.Move()` instead of
`Clear()`/`Add()`
The checkmark in the "Sort by" menu would not update correctly when
changing sort order, sometimes showing the incorrect item checked, or
even both at once.
**Root cause**
The `IsChecked` prop on the `ToggleMenuFlyoutItem` is bound to
`DashboardSortOrder`, but the binding was not updating because the
ViewModel didn't raise a property change notification when the sort
order was changed.
**Fix**
Added `OnPropertyChanged(nameof(DashboardSortOrder))` in
`SortModuleList()`.
1. Renamed `GetShortcutModules()` to `RefreshShortcutModules()`. The
original name implied a getter, but the routine actually affects state
by rebuilding the shortcut and action lists, violating the Command-Query
Separation principle.
2. Added an `_isUpdatingFromUI` flag as a defensive measure against
circular updates when a UI toggle is changed.
3. Separation of concerns for operations on the modules list. Building,
sorting and refreshing it are separated.
4. Added comments and XML doc headers for new methods. Included brief
description of GPO locking behaviour.
<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
- Verified that toggling modules in the list no longer causes the list
to flicker or for other toggles to glitch.
- Confirmed that the sort order checkmarks update correctly and reflect
the current sort order.
- Tested GPO policy settings are still queried as before.
- Checked sort behaviour is unaffected.

Fix OOBE Mouse Utilities crash by correcting localization key (#43664)
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
- The OOBE Mouse Utilities page crashed when selected because the
TextBlock with x:Uid="Oobe_MouseUtils_MousePointerCrosshairs" tried to
bind a Description property that doesn’t exist.
- Updated Resources.resw so the string entry is named
Oobe_MouseUtils_MousePointerCrosshairs_Description.Text, matching the
markdown description control instead of the TextBlock.
- With the correct resource key, the XAML loader no longer resolves an
invalid property and navigation succeeds.

This pull request removes legacy provider configuration migration logic
and associated data structures from the Advanced Paste AI provider

legacy provider configuration snapshots and related migration methods,
focusing configuration management on the current provider model.

BugReportTool: replace cziplib with tar.exe (#41127)
BugReportTool is the last consumer in the PowerToys repo of cziplib, a
library we use to produce ZIP files.
This pull request replaces cziplib with a simple CreateProcess call that
spawns `tar.exe`, which comes with Windows as of RS4 and can produce ZIP
files!
I've tested this by producing a bug report archive and attempting to
open it with File Explorer. It works fine.
We have taken every precaution to ensure that we do not allow any
attacker-controlled input to tar's command line. We are *not* using
`system()`, and we are not opening up a vector through which a nefarious
caller can perform shell injection.
We do not pass filenames to tar except that of the final archive. We do
not pass directory names to tar; we rely on the current directory
instead.

[CmdPal] Optimise MainListPage's results display by merging already-sorted lists (#44126)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR replaces the current LINQ-based results compilation query of
combining, sorting and filtering the four result sources with a 3-way
merge operation plus a final append. It provides a performance increase
as well as a significant reduction in allocations.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
The existing code:
1. Limits the number of apps returned to a pre-defined maximum.
2. Sorts the apps list.
3. Appends filtered items, scored fallback items and the apps list
together.
4. Sorts the three lists based on their score.
5. Appends the non-scored fallback items, with empty items excluded.
6. Selects just the `Item` from each.
7. Creates an array from the enumerable.
```csharp
if (_filteredApps?.Count > 0)
{
limitedApps = _filteredApps.OrderByDescending(s => s.Score).Take(_appResultLimit).ToList();
}
var items = Enumerable.Empty<Scored<IListItem>>()
.Concat(_filteredItems is not null ? _filteredItems : [])
.Concat(_scoredFallbackItems is not null ? _scoredFallbackItems : [])
.Concat(limitedApps)
.OrderByDescending(o => o.Score)
// Add fallback items post-sort so they are always at the end of the list
// and eventually ordered based on user preference
.Concat(_fallbackItems is not null ? _fallbackItems.Where(w => !string.IsNullOrEmpty(w.Item.Title)) : [])
.Select(s => s.Item)
.ToArray();
```
We can exploit the fact that each of the three 'scored' lists are
pre-ordered, and replace the query with a 3-way merge and final append
of the non-scored fallback items.
By pre-sizing the results array we can avoid all the extra allocations
of the LINQ-based solution.
### Proof of pre-ordering
In `UpdateSearchText`, each of the lists is defined by calling
`ListHelpers.FilterListWithScores`:
```csharp
// Produce a list of everything that matches the current filter.
_filteredItems = [.. ListHelpers.FilterListWithScores<IListItem>(newFilteredItems ?? [], SearchText, scoreItem)];
```
```csharp
_scoredFallbackItems = ListHelpers.FilterListWithScores<IListItem>(newFallbacksForScoring ?? [], SearchText, scoreItem);
```
```csharp
var scoredApps = ListHelpers.FilterListWithScores<IListItem>(newApps, SearchText, scoreItem);
...
_filteredApps = [.. scoredApps];
```
In `FilterListWithScores`, the results are ordered by score:
```csharp
var scores = items
.Select(li => new Scored<T>() { Item = li, Score = scoreFunction(query, li) })
.Where(score => score.Score > 0)
.OrderByDescending(score => score.Score);
```
(This also makes the existing `OrderByDescending()` for `_filteredApps`
before the LINQ query redundant.)
### K-way merge
Since the results are pre-sorted, we can do a direct merge in linear
time. This is what the new `MainListPageResultFactory`'s `Create`
achieves. As the lists may be different sizes, the routine does a 3-way
merge, followed by a 2-way merge and a single list drain to finish. Each
element is only visited once.
### Benchmarks
A separate benchmark project is
[here](https://github.com/daverayment/MainListBench), written with
Benchmark.net.
The project compares the current LINQ-based solution against:
1. An Array-based algorithm which pre-assigns a results array and still
sorts the 3 scored sets of results. This shows a naive non-LINQ solution
which is still _O(n log n)_ because of the sort.
2. The k-way merge, which is described above. _O(n)_ for both time and
space complexity.
3. A heap merge algorithm, which uses a priority queue instead of
tracking each of the lists separately. (This is _O(n log k)_ in terms of
time complexity and _O(n + k)_ for space.)
Care is taken to ensure stable sorting of items. When preparing the
benchmark data, items with identical scores are assigned to confirm each
algorithm performs identically to the LINQ `OrderBy` approach, which
performs a stable sort.
Results show that the merge performs best in terms of both runtime
performance and allocations, sometimes by a significant margin. Compared
to the LINQ approach, merge runs 400%+ faster and with at most ~20% of
the allocations:

### Cons
1. Existing performance is not currently an issue. This could be seen as
a premature optimisation.
2. The new code introduces an inherent contract between the results
compilation routine and the lists, i.e. that they must be sorted.
This PR was really for research and learning more about CmdPal (and a
bit of algorithm practice because it's Advent of Code time), so please
feel free to reject if you feel the cons outweigh the pros.
<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
- Added unit tests to exercise the new code, which confirm that the
specific ordering is preserved, and the filtering and pre-trimming of
the apps list is performed as before.
- Existing non-UI unit tests run. NB: I _could not_ run any UI Tests on
my system and just got an early bail-out each time.
- Manual testing in (non-AOT) Release mode.

I noticed the double "active" line around the items when the ListPage is
focused. I was unable to find where that is defined. Ideally, the
black-border would go away.
I tested with AOT turned on.
The behavior accounts for suggestions. If the SearchBar is focused and
there is a suggestion, right-arrow will [continue] to complete the
suggestion.

Improve install scope detection to prevent mixed user/machine installations (#43931)
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request
The old implementation checked
`HKLM\Software\Classes\powertoys\InstallScope` first. If this key
existed (even as a remnant from incomplete uninstall), it would
immediately return `PerMachine` without validating the actual
installation.
### Fix
- Uses Windows standard Uninstall registry (most reliable source of
truth)
- Identifies PowerToys Bundle by exact `BundleUpgradeCode` GUID match
- MSI component entries (always in HKLM) are automatically ignored since
they don't have `BundleUpgradeCode`
- Checks HKCU first, then HKLM, properly handling the fact that Bundle
location reflects true install scope

Using centralized package management for vcxproj (#43920)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This pull request updates the build system for several native and
managed projects, modernizing NuGet package management and improving
code analysis configuration. The main changes involve switching from
legacy `packages.config` and manual `.props`/`.targets` imports to
PackageReference style for native projects, updating package versions,
and streamlining code analysis settings.
**Build system modernization and package management:**
* Migrated native projects (`PowerToys.MeasureToolCore.vcxproj`,
`FindMyMouse.vcxproj`) from legacy `packages.config` and manual
`.props`/`.targets` imports to NuGet PackageReference style, simplifying
dependency management and build configuration. This includes removing
the `packages.config` file and related import/error logic, and
introducing `PackageReference` items for required packages.

* Updated the centralized package versions in
`Directory.Packages.props`, adding new entries for `boost`,
`boost_regex-vc143`, `Microsoft.Windows.ImplementationLibrary`, and
`Microsoft.WindowsAppSDK.Foundation` to support the new build system and
dependencies.

**Code analysis improvements:**
* Added configuration to both native and managed projects
(`PowerToys.MeasureToolCore.vcxproj`, `MeasureToolUI.csproj`) to
suppress specific warnings (81010002) and exclude NuGet cache files from
code analysis, reducing noise and improving build performance.

**Project reference and output handling:**
* Updated the managed project (`MeasureToolUI.csproj`) to handle native
project outputs more robustly, ensuring the WinMD and DLL files are
available at runtime and configuring the project reference to avoid
assembly reference issues.
**Compiler configuration:**
* Enhanced C++ compiler settings in `Cpp.Build.props` to treat
angle-bracket includes as external, disable warnings and analysis for
external headers, and optimize build performance.

[ImageResizer] Fix Fill mode not cropping image when Shrink Only was engaged and scale was 1 (#43855)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR fixes an Image Resizer issue where **Fill** mode operations were
silently aborted when **Shrink Only** was enabled (the default) and
scale was 1.0 on one dimension, resulting in files that were renamed
according to the intended target size but which actually contained the
original, unmodified image.
This also fixes a latent bug regarding square images and the **Ignore
Orientation** setting, and improves the readability of the core
`Transform` method.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
### Fix **Shrink Only** logic preventing the correct cropping of images
**Issue:**
When using **Fill** mode, the scaling factor is calculated based on the
larger dimension to ensure the image fills the target box. In scenarios
where one dimension matches the target and the other overflows (e.g.
shrinking a 100x100 pixel image to 50x100), the calculated scale factor
is `1.0`.
The previous `ShrinkOnly` logic included this:
```csharp
if (_settings.ShrinkOnly
&& _settings.SelectedSize.Unit != ResizeUnit.Percent
&& (scaleX >= 1 || scaleY >= 1))
{
return source;
}
```
This correctly prevents `ShrinkOnly` operations from returning upscaled
result images, but it also exits too early for cases where the user is
cropping the image across one dimension only, leaving the other at scale
1. Effectively, the later cropping code is never run and instead of
returning the cropped image, the original is returned. The _intended_
target dimensions are correct, which results in the filename parts not
matching the resulting image size.
**Fix:**
The logic has been split between upscaling and cropping, so:
1. If the scale on either dimension is > `1.0`, return the source
(explicitly preventing upscaling for **Shrink Only** mode).
2. If the scale is <= `1.0` then check if the original dimensions exceed
the target dimensions. If a crop is required, proceed with it even if
the scale is exactly `1.0`.
### Fix for square images triggering orientation swap
**Issue:**
The "Ignore Orientation" check in the original code used a compound
boolean check:
```csharp
(originalWidth < originalHeight != width < height)
```
This clever but less than readable statement detects orientation
mismatches. The section also includes a logic issue. When the original
image was square, `originalWidth < originalHeight` evaluated to `false`,
treating it as Landscape. If the target dimensions were Portrait, the
logic detected a mismatch and swapped the target dimensions incorrectly,
which would crop the height instead of the width.
'Fortunately' this bug was masked by the first bug, as the crop code
would never be reached anyway.
**Fix:**
The orientation detection routine was refactored to explicitly check for
Landscape vs. Portrait states. Square images are now naturally excluded,
as they have neither Landscape nor Portrait orientations. This now
prevents the dimensions from being swapped.
### Refactoring/readability
The main `Transform` method has been cleaned up:
- Replaced widespread use of `var` with `double` and `int` for dimension
and scale calculations.
- Replaced the non-obvious XOR orientation check (`a < b != c < d`) with
named booleans (`isInputLandscape`, `isTargetPortrait` etc.) to make the
intent more self-documenting.
- New and expanded comments throughout.
<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
Three new unit tests have been added to `ResizeOperationTests.cs` to
cover the **Fill** mode edge cases:
1. `TransformHonorsFillWithShrinkOnlyWhenCropRequired`: Verifies than an
image requiring a crop but no scaling is processed correctly (tests that
the original bug report is resolved).
2. `TransformHonorsFillWithShrinkOnlyWhenUpscaleAttempted`: Confirms
that when `ShrinkOnly` is set, any upscaling operations are still
blocked.
3. `TransformHonorsFillWithShrinkOnlyWhenNoChangeRequired`: Verifies
that the system returns the source if neither scaling nor cropping is
required.
I also manually verified the bug fix with a test 4000 x 6000 pixel
source file with 1920 x `Auto` **Fill** mode and **Shrink Only**
settings, mirroring the original user's settings, and their source and
target dimensions.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
**Clipboard color detection and conversion:**
* Added `ClipboardItemHelper.IsRgbHexColor` method using a compiled
regex to identify valid hex color strings in clipboard text.

* Introduced `HexColorConverterHelper.ConvertHexColorToRgb` utility to
convert hex color strings to `Windows.UI.Color`, handling both 3-digit
and 6-digit formats.
**UI enhancements for color previews:**
* Updated `ClipboardHistoryItemPreviewControl` to include a color
preview grid that displays an ellipse filled with the detected color and
the color code as text, using the new `HexColorToBrushConverter`.

* Modified logic in `ClipboardHistoryItemPreviewControl.xaml.cs` to
ensure color previews are shown only for detected color items and to
adjust visibility of text and glyph previews accordingly.
**Unit tests for color detection and conversion:**
* Added unit tests for hex color conversion
(`HexColorToColorConverterTests.cs`) and color detection logic
(`ClipboardItemHelperTests.cs`) to verify correct behavior for valid,
invalid, and edge-case inputs.

CmdPal: Add configuration option for Escape key behavior (#43354)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR adds a new option to the **General** page in **Settings**:
Escape key behavior — a dropdown with the following choices:
- Clear search first, then go back
- Current behavior.
- If the search box contains text, it is cleared; otherwise goes back.
- On the home page, CmdPal is dismissed.
- Go back
- Leaves the search text intact.
- If the page is not transient, the search text reappears when
returning.
- On the home page, CmdPal is dismissed.
- Hide window and go home (Always dismiss)
- Immediately dismisses CmdPal and navigates to the home page.
- Ignores the **Go home when activated** setting.
- Search text is cleared.
- Hide window
- Just hides the window.
- Intended to be used with #43355.
This implementation preserves existing behavior, except for **Always
dismiss**, which always forces navigation to the home page.

Add semantic headings to Dashboard page for accessibility (#42438)
## Summary
Fixes #37668 by adding proper semantic heading structure to the
Dashboard (Home) page, enabling screen reader users to navigate the page
efficiently using heading shortcuts.
## Problem
The Dashboard page lacked semantic heading elements, making it difficult
for users of assistive technologies to understand the page structure and
navigate between sections. When using screen readers with heading
navigation (H key in scan mode), no headings were announced, violating
WCAG 2.2 Success Criterion 1.3.1 (Info and Relationships).
## Solution
Added `AutomationProperties.HeadingLevel` attributes to provide proper
heading hierarchy:
1. **Dashboard Title** - Marked as Level 1 (H1) heading
- Added `AutomationProperties.HeadingLevel="1"` to the "Home" page title
- Follows the same pattern as `SettingsPageControl.xaml`
2. **Card Titles** - Marked as Level 2 (H2) headings
- Added `AutomationProperties.HeadingLevel="Level2"` to the Card
component
- Applies to all card sections: "Quick Access", "Shortcuts Overview",
and "Utilities"
- Follows the same pattern as `SettingsGroup.xaml`
## Resulting Structure
```
H1: Home (Dashboard Title)
├─ H2: Quick Access
├─ H2: Shortcuts Overview
└─ H2: Utilities
```
## Impact
- Screen reader users can now use heading navigation (H key) to jump
between sections on the Dashboard page
- Provides proper document structure that follows WCAG 2.2 Level A
guidelines
- No visual or functional changes - only accessibility metadata added
- Consistent with existing accessibility patterns used throughout the
Settings UI
## Testing
- Changes follow existing patterns in `SettingsPageControl.xaml` (Level
1) and `SettingsGroup.xaml` (Level 2)
- Only XAML accessibility attributes added - no code logic changes
- Minimal, surgical changes: 2 lines across 2 files

<!-- Provide a more detailed description of the PR, other things fixed

This PR is currently a draft, I still need to know if adding
language-related keyboard management is a good idea or specifying the
use of a gobal key to make it easier to manage all the keyboards in one.
Some languages can use different keyboards, I think this would become
problematic if the keyboard does not match the key used by default.
However, using a universal key can also pose an issue to finding the
key. that remains to be discussed

Restore missing "Quick access" menu item in tray icon context menu (#42676)
## Summary
Restores the "Quick access" menu item that was accidentally removed from
the PowerToys tray icon context menu.
## Issue
Fixes #[issue_number]
The "Quick access" menu item was missing from the tray icon's
right-click context menu, preventing users from accessing this feature
via the tray menu.
**Expected menu:**

**Actual menu (before this fix):**

## Changes
- Added the missing `MENUITEM "Quick access\tLeft-click",
ID_QUICK_ACCESS_MENU_COMMAND` entry as the first menu item in the
`ID_TRAY_MENU` definition in `src/runner/runner.base.rc`
## Details
The menu item was accidentally removed in commit
f5797a065a5c2c448fd2b1780bd1353d712103c3. This PR restores it to its
correct position as the first item in the tray menu.
All supporting code was already in place:
- The resource ID `ID_QUICK_ACCESS_MENU_COMMAND` (40006) is defined in
`resource.base.h`
- The resource string `QUICK_ACCESS_MENU_TEXT` is defined in
`Resources.resx`
- The menu command handler in `tray_icon.cpp` opens the Quick Access
flyout window
- The localization code updates the menu text at runtime
## Testing
- ✅ Verified the menu item syntax is correct and matches existing
patterns
- ✅ Confirmed all supporting resource IDs and handler code exist
- ✅ CI build verification pending
After this fix, the tray menu will correctly display:
1. Quick access (Left-click)
2. Settings (Double-click)
3. Documentation
4. Report Bug
5. Close

CmdPal: Find app for WinGet package (#43943)
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR introduces a bit of dark magic to resolve the correct installed
app for a given WinGet package:
- Packaged apps: matched using their package family name.
- Everything else: matched using the product code (GUID) and heuristic
registry lookup.
- The registry rarely stores the executable path directly, so the logic
compares install locations with known apps.
- It attempts to pick the best candidate while avoiding uninstallers.
- It’s not science — let’s call it `#666666` magic.
- MSI API support was removed because it's too slow for this scenario.
- If no reliable match is found, the command is skipped for now. The
future plan is to redirect the user to the list of installed apps and
search by display name, but that needs some supporting infrastructure
first.
- The command order for WinGet list entries was updated: **Install /
Uninstall** is now the primary action, ensuring a stable UI since this
command is always available.

Bump our telemetry package version (#44015)
Data collection is still hard.
This just makes it so that the build pipeline uses the updated PowerToys
telemetry NuGet package. The updated package switches us over to use a
diagnostic data provider group for compliance with some new regulations
(i.e. DMA and EU Data Act).

## Validation Steps Performed
### Run manual tests from [Test Checklist
Template](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/5bc7201ae2b75b53d3a4bc35119c867ecf71c5f6/doc/releases/tests-checklist-template.md#mouse-without-borders):
* Install PowerToys on two PCs in the same local network:
- [x] Verify that PowerToys is properly installed on both PCs.
- [x] Configure Windows Firewall Rules
- ```netsh advfirewall firewall add rule
name="PowerToys.MouseWithoutBorders - mc" dir=in action=allow
program="C:\src\mc\PowerToys\x64\Debug\PowerToys.exe" enable=yes
remoteip=any profile=any protocol=tcp```
* Setup Connection:
- [x] Open MWB's settings on the first PC and click the "New Key"
button. Verify that a new security key is generated.
- [x] Copy the generated security key and paste it in the corresponding
input field in the settings of MWB on the second PC. Also enter the name
of the first PC in the required field.
- [x] Press "Connect" and verify that the machine layout now includes
two PC tiles, each displaying their respective PC names.
* Verify Connection Status:
- [x] Ensure that the border of the remote PC turns green, indicating a
successful connection.
- [x] Enter an incorrect security key and verify that the border of the
remote PC turns red, indicating a failed connection.
* Test Remote Mouse/Keyboard Control:
- [x] With the PCs connected, test the mouse/keyboard control from one
PC to another. Verify that the mouse/keyboard inputs are correctly
registered on the other PC.
- [ ] Test remote mouse/keyboard control across all four PCs, if
available. Verify that inputs are correctly registered on each connected
PC when the mouse is active there.
- unable to test - only 2 machines available
* Test Remote Control with Elevated Apps:
- note - the main PowerToys.exe must be running as a **non**-admin for
these tests
- [x] Open an elevated app on one of the PCs. Verify that without "Use
Service" enabled, PowerToys does not control the elevated app.
- [x] Enable "Use Service" in MWB's settings (need to run PowerToys.exe
as admin to enable "Use Service", then restart PowerToys.exe as
non-admin). Verify that PowerToys can now control the elevated app
remotely. Verify that MWB processes are running as LocalSystem, while
the MWB helper process is running non-elevated.
- ```get-process -Name "PowerToys.MouseWithoutBorders*" -IncludeUserName
| format-table Id, ProcessName, UserName```
- [x] Process: ```PowerToys.MouseWithoutBorders.exe``` - running as
```SYSTEM```
- [x] Process: ```PowerToys.MouseWithoutBorders.Helper.exe``` - running
as current user
- ```get-service -Name "PowerToys.*" | ft Status, Name, UserName;
get-ciminstance -Class "Win32_Service" -Filter "Name like 'PowerToys%'"
| ft ProcessId, Name```
- [x] Service: ```PowerToys.MWB.Service``` - running as ```Local
System```
- [x] Toggle "Use Service" again, verify that each time you do that, the
MWB processes are restarted.
- [x] Run PowerToys elevated on one of the machines, verify that you can
control elevated apps remotely now on that machine.
* Test Module Enable Status:
- [x] For all combinations of "Use Service"/"Run PowerToys as admin",
try enabling/disabling MWB module and verify that it's indeed being
toggled using task manager.
* Test Disconnection/Reconnection:
- [x] Disconnect one of the PCs from network. Verify that the machine
layout updates to reflect the disconnection.
- [x] Do the same, but now by exiting PowerToys.
- [ ] Start PowerToys again, verify that the PCs are reconnected.
* Test Various Local Network Conditions:
- [ ] Test MWB performance under various network conditions (e.g., low
bandwidth, high latency). Verify that the tool maintains a stable
connection and functions correctly.
* Clipboard Sharing:
- [x] Copy some text on one PC and verify that the same text can be
pasted on another PC.
- [x] Use the screenshot key and Win+Shift+S to take a screenshot on one
PC and verify that the screenshot can be pasted on another PC.
- [x] Copy a file in Windows Explorer and verify that the file can be
pasted on another PC. Make sure the file size is below 100MB.
- [x] Try to copy multiple files and directories and verify that it's
not possible (only the first selected file is being copied).
* Drag and Drop:
- [ ] Drag a file from Windows Explorer on one PC, cross the screen
border onto another PC, and release it there. Verify that the file is
copied to the other PC. Make sure the file size is below 100MB.
- [ ] While dragging the file, verify that a corresponding icon is
displayed under the mouse cursor.
- [ ] Without moving the mouse from one PC to the target PC, press
CTRL+ALT+F1/2/3/4 hotkey to switch to the target PC directly and verify
that file sharing/dropping is not working.
* Lock and Unlock with "Use Service" Enabled:
- [x] Enable "Use Service" in MWB's settings.
- [x] Lock a remote PC using Win+L, move the mouse to it remotely, and
try to unlock it. Verify that you can unlock the remote PC.
- [x] Disable "Use Service" in MWB's settings, lock the remote PC, move
the mouse to it remotely, and try to unlock it. Verify that you can't
unlock the remote PC.
* Test Settings:
- [ ] Change the rest of available settings on MWB page and verify that
each setting works as described.

CmdPal: Fix grid views (#43991)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR fixes the crash due to binding to a trimmed property. For this
it converts runtime bindings on GridView to use `{x:Bind}` so this issue
can't happen in the future.
- Fixes a crash related to the `Visibility` property in gallery/grid
views when trimmed during AOT builds.
- Fixes ShowTitle and ShowSubtitle properties, they are now taken into
account in a view.
- Improves UI layout, removes some margins and maches the corner radius
of the item contaienr with the item content in the gallery view.
- Refactores gallery and grid views to move logic from the view to the
view model so we can x:Bind to them.
- Replaces `{Binding}` with `{x:Bind}` to improve performance and enable
compile-time binding validation.
- Properties related to grids are splatted on to the common
`IGridPropertiesViewModel` interface. Subclassing would add extra
overhead without substential benefit.
- Adds new samples to showcase various grid view configurations.

CmdPal: Add custom search engine option to Web Search extension (#43941)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR allows user to customize a search query in Command Palette's Web
Search built-in extension. This will also solve a problem with some
browser that doesn't handle argument in form "? <query>" as it will
allow user to specify the complete URI.
- Introduces a new text box in Web Search extension settings for
specifying a custom search engine URI
- If the text box is non-empty, the provided URI is used for queries
- If left empty, the extension defaults to previous behavior, sending
queries in the format "? query"

CmdPal: Add mini dev center (#43939)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR introduces a small ribbon to the CmdPal for app developers. The
dev ribbon is dynamically added to the main window in local (non-CI)
builds. It shows the number of logged errors and warnings, the current
build configuration (Debug or Release), and whether it’s built with AOT.
The flyout shows the latest errors and warnings and lets you quickly
access the logs.

CmdPal: Use Shell API to determine the default browser in WebSearch (#43339)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR introduces a new method for determining the default browser
using the Windows Shell API. The new provider selects the browser
associated with the HTTPS protocol (falling back to HTTP if necessary).
The original implementation is retained as a fallback for now, and the
codebase is prepared for future extensions (e.g., manual default-browser
selection).
As a flyby, it also fixes an issue where commands continued showing the
previous browser name if the user changed their default browser while
the Command Palette was running.
## One-liner for change log
Fixed default browser selection in the Web Search built-in extension.

CmdPal: Add option to return to home automatically after a delay (#43551)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR replaces the Go home when activated setting with a new
Automatically return home option. This allows users to specify how long
the Command Palette should wait after being dismissed before
automatically returning to the home page. It also introduces migration
logic to transition from the old setting to the new one.

Update Command Palette's Learn More string to be consistent with other utilities (#43898)
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it

-->
## Summary of the Pull Request
In the PowerToys "What's new" window, every utility has the text "Learn
more about <utility name>" next to the "Settings" button. Examples
below:
<img width="247" height="38" alt="learnmore-fancyzones"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/fecdeb4b-e01c-438d-8d11-c056e613768e"

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ffb0c801-5b89-46d1-b493-b57287303e65"
/>
The only exception is the Command Palette utility which just says "Learn
more".

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/232c11cd-b621-46eb-87f1-d3fc708d6286"
/>
This is an inconsistency and this PR fixes that string.

## Summary of the Pull Request
Remove the properties in Prompt Execution Settings for OpenAI, as the
new models may not support them.
Will try to expose them in the UI so users can add them on their own in
the next release.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
This was because of my recent change to the timed mode. The `Subscribe`
method on the `Observable` interval accidentally wired the completion
logic to the **Error** handler instead of the **Completion** handler
because of the use of a discard `_` instead of an empty parameter list
`()`. As a result of the incorrect overload being called, Awake stayed
in the Timed state despite the timer reaching zero.
<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
Confirmed that the timed mode times out and exits upon expiry.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
### User-Facing Fixes
#### 1. Module list glitching when toggling enabled state
When enabling or disabling a module from the "Utilities" list, the
entire list would flicker and redraw, causing other toggles to glitch.
This made it appear as if multiple modules were being affected by a
single change.
**Root cause**
The `AllModules` ObservableCollection was being completely cleared and
re-populated on every change, forcing the UI to destroy and recreate all
list items.
**Fix**
Refactored collection updates to modify items in-place:
- Introduced `_moduleItems` master list, built once during
initialization.
- `RefreshModuleList()` now updates properties without clearing
collections
- `SortModuleList()` uses `ObservableCollection.Move()` instead of
`Clear()`/`Add()`
#### 2. Incorrect sort menu checkmark behaviour
The checkmark in the "Sort by" menu would not update correctly when
changing sort order, sometimes showing the incorrect item checked, or
even both at once.
**Root cause**
The `IsChecked` prop on the `ToggleMenuFlyoutItem` is bound to
`DashboardSortOrder`, but the binding was not updating because the
ViewModel didn't raise a property change notification when the sort
order was changed.
**Fix**
Added `OnPropertyChanged(nameof(DashboardSortOrder))` in
`SortModuleList()`.
### Code quality improvements
1. Renamed `GetShortcutModules()` to `RefreshShortcutModules()`. The
original name implied a getter, but the routine actually affects state
by rebuilding the shortcut and action lists, violating the Command-Query
Separation principle.
2. Added an `_isUpdatingFromUI` flag as a defensive measure against
circular updates when a UI toggle is changed.
3. Separation of concerns for operations on the modules list. Building,
sorting and refreshing it are separated.
4. Added comments and XML doc headers for new methods. Included brief
description of GPO locking behaviour.
<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
- Verified that toggling modules in the list no longer causes the list
to flicker or for other toggles to glitch.
- Confirmed that the sort order checkmarks update correctly and reflect
the current sort order.
- Tested GPO policy settings are still queried as before.
- Checked sort behaviour is unaffected.

Fix OOBE Mouse Utilities crash by correcting localization key (#43664)
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request
- The OOBE Mouse Utilities page crashed when selected because the
TextBlock with x:Uid="Oobe_MouseUtils_MousePointerCrosshairs" tried to
bind a Description property that doesn’t exist.
- Updated Resources.resw so the string entry is named
Oobe_MouseUtils_MousePointerCrosshairs_Description.Text, matching the
markdown description control instead of the TextBlock.
- With the correct resource key, the XAML loader no longer resolves an
invalid property and navigation succeeds.

BugReportTool: replace cziplib with tar.exe (#41127)
BugReportTool is the last consumer in the PowerToys repo of cziplib, a
library we use to produce ZIP files.
This pull request replaces cziplib with a simple CreateProcess call that
spawns `tar.exe`, which comes with Windows as of RS4 and can produce ZIP
files!
I've tested this by producing a bug report archive and attempting to
open it with File Explorer. It works fine.
We have taken every precaution to ensure that we do not allow any
attacker-controlled input to tar's command line. We are *not* using
`system()`, and we are not opening up a vector through which a nefarious
caller can perform shell injection.
We do not pass filenames to tar except that of the final archive. We do
not pass directory names to tar; we rely on the current directory
instead.
