73e379238b 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}
```

b075a021df 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).

056328823f build: remove SHINE pool image override (to enable Server 2022) (#43287) 
I am changing the default build pool image from Windows Server 2019 to
Server 2022, as the 2019 images are deprecated and their use will become
a permanent error soon.

However, I cannot do that while PowerToys contains build image
overrides. These overrides prevent it from choosing the Server 2022
images.

As a drive-by, I fixed the following issues:

- `NUGET_PACKAGES` was being read from the ambient environment. It was
used in the package cache _and_ in the WIX projects directly (!). To
make the build more predictable, we now set it during build time.
- We _still_ had build step conditions that resulted in extra work being
done during build failure.
- The release builds now produce numbered failure log artifacts just
like the CI builds do.
- I have adjusted the default disk configuration to give enough space to
`C:\`, so we no longer need the work directory override or custom data
disk.

The screenshot below is from a test run where I overrode the pool image
to be `SHINE-VS17-Latest-2022`. We do not want to do that in the final
configuration, so I had to revert that change.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
PR adds a new mouse utils module, this is 'Cursor Wrap' - Cursor Wrap
works with 1-9 monitors based on the logical monitor layout of the PC -
for a single monitor device the cursor is wrapped for the top/bottom and
left/right edges of the display - for a multi-monitor setup the cursor
is wrapped on the top/bottom left/right of the displays in the logical
display layout.

## Validation Steps Performed
Validation has been performed on a Surface Laptop 7 Pro (Intel) with a
single display and with an HDMI USB-C second display configured to be a
second monitor in top/left/right/bottom configuration - there are also
tests that run as part of the build to validate logical monitor layout
and cursor positioning.

b1985bc8d1 Introduce shared sparse package identity for PowerToys (#42352) 
<!-- 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 pull request adds support for building, installing, and managing a
shared sparse MSIX package to grant package identity to select Win32
components in PowerToys. It introduces a new `PackageIdentity` project,
updates the installer to handle the new MSIX package during
install/uninstall, and provides developer documentation for working with
the sparse package. Additionally, new dependencies and signing rules are
included to support these changes.

**Sparse Package Identity Support**

* Added new `PackageIdentity` project to the solution for building the
sparse MSIX package, and included it in solution/project build
configurations (`PowerToys.sln`).
[[1]](diffhunk://#diff-ca837ce490070b91656ffffe31cbad8865ba9174e0f020231f77baf35ff3f811R29)

* Added developer documentation (`sparse-package.md`) and updated
documentation indexes to describe how to build, register, and consume
the sparse MSIX package.
[[1]](diffhunk://#diff-b4e39fb55a49c6de336d5847d75a55dd1d14840578da0ed9130f0130b61b34aaR1-R87)

**Installer Enhancements**

* Implemented new custom actions in the installer to install and
uninstall the `PowerToysSparse.msix` package, supporting both per-user
and machine-level scenarios (`CustomAction.cpp`, `CustomAction.def`,
`Product.wxs`).
[[1]](diffhunk://#diff-a7680a20bf0315cff463a95588a100c99d2afc53030f6e947f1f1dcaca5eefd7R597-R806)

**Build and Dependency Updates**

* Added new NuGet package dependencies for Windows App SDK AI and
Runtime to support MSIX and sparse package features
(`Directory.Packages.props`).
* Updated signing pipeline to include the new `PowerToysSparse.msix`
artifact (`.pipelines/ESRPSigning_core.json`).

92d9f1061c ci: reduce needless file copying; zip GPOs; reliability (#42446) 
This pull request makes four main changes to the build.

1. GPOs are now emitted as a ZIP file, rather than a folder to be zipped
later.
2. PDB files are linked into the output folder by hard link, rather than
copy, to save disk space.
3. We no longer copy the entire build output folder into artifacts;
instead, we *move* it, to save disk space.
4. **Failed builds** will no longer produce `build-arch-release`
artifacts; instead, they will produce numbered failure artifacts. This
means that we can finally re-run a single leg of the build, and it will
not fail due to the artifact already existing!

I included a smaller change to the DSC build step to make sure it
doesn't accidentally run when everything else failed. Heh.

Altogether, this takes a couple minutes off the build and reduces the
demand on the agent's disk by 10-15GB.

63da56fae0 Remove WiX v3 infrastructure and migrate exclusively to WiX v5 (#41975) 
## Summary:

This pull request refactors the installer build pipeline to simplify and
modernize the process, focusing exclusively on the WiX 5 (VNext)
installer and removing legacy WiX 3 support. It eliminates the use of
the `installerSuffix` parameter and related logic, removes the legacy
installer build steps and scripts, and updates documentation to reflect
the new architecture. The changes streamline the pipeline, reduce
complexity, and ensure only the latest installer is built and signed.

Pipeline and build system simplification:

* Removed the `installerSuffix` parameter and all related logic from
pipeline templates and YAML files, including file naming, build steps,
and hash calculation scripts.
* Removed legacy WiX 3 installer build steps and the associated script
`installWiX.ps1`, focusing exclusively on WiX 5 (VNext) installer
builds.

Installer signing and build process updates:

* Updated `.pipelines/ESRPSigning_installer.json` to remove signing
configuration for the legacy `PowerToysSetupCustomActions.dll`, ensuring
only the VNext DLL is signed.

Documentation updates:

* Updated `doc/devdocs/core/installer.md` to remove references to WiX 3,
clarify the installer architecture as WiX 5 only, and describe the new
build process.

## CheckList:
- [ ] Should Build successfully and produce installer for both per user
and per machine
- [ ] Should install without problem

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

### Known bugs:
- Default settings not saving correctly when switching modes
- Issue: Sometimes when you switch from one mode to another, they are
supposed to update with new defaults but sometimes this fails for the
second variable. Potentially has to do with accessing the settings file
while another chunk of code is still updating.
- Sometimes the system looks "glitched" when switching themes

### To do:
- [x] OOBE page and assets
- [x] Logic to disable the chart when no location has been selected
- [x] Localization

### How to and what to test
Grab the latest installer from the pipeline below for your architecture
and install PowerToys from there.
- Toggle theme shortcutSystem only, Apps only, Both system and apps
selected
- Does changing the values on the settings page update the settings
file? %LOCALAPPDATA%/Microsoft/PowerToys/LightSwitch/settings.json
- Manual mode: System only, Apps only, Both system and apps selected
- Sunrise modes:  Are the times accurate?
- If you manage to let this run through sunset/rise does the theme
change?
- Set your theme to change within the next minute using manual mode and
set your device to sleepOpen your device and login once the time you set
has passed. --> Do your settings resync once the next minute ticks after
logging back into your device?
- Disable the service and ensure the tasks actually ends.
- While the module is disabled:
     - Make sure the shortcut no longer works
     - Make sure the last time you set doesn't trigger a theme change
- Bonus: Toggle GPO Configuration and make sure you are unable to enable
the module

Couple little things here:

* Makes `Microsoft.CmdPal.Common` a `Core` project
* Moves the `CmdPal.Core` projects into a single `Core/` directory
* Adds the `CoreLogger` which I had stashed in
https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/compare/dev/migrie/40113/extension-hosts-try-2...dev/migrie/b/remove-core-managedcommon-dep
a while back
* De-duplicates a bunch of commands that were in both Apps and Common
* moves all the commands into the toolkit, instead of in the Common
project

d0a67823e1 Add additional build and sign step for SilentFilesInUseBAFunction (#41853) 
This pull request adds a new build and signing step for the
`SilentFilesInUseBAFunction` DLL in the installer pipeline and makes a
minor project configuration update. The main goal is to ensure that this
DLL is built and signed as part of the CI process, and that its output
is preserved during subsequent build steps.

**Pipeline changes:**

* Added a new build step in
`.pipelines/v2/templates/steps-build-installer-vnext.yml` to compile the
`SilentFilesInUseBAFunction` target from the `PowerToysSetup.sln`
solution, with appropriate MSBuild arguments and logging.
* Introduced a conditional code-signing step for the
`SilentFilesInUseBAFunction` DLL, using the existing ESRP signing
template and policies.
* Updated the comment for the main installer build step to clarify that
it now preserves both the MSI and `SilentFilesInUseBAFunction` outputs.

**Project configuration:**

* Set the `ProjectName` property to `PowerToysSetupCustomActionsVNext`
in `SilentFilesInUseBAFunction.vcxproj` for clearer project
identification.

f4d4c9aabe Enable only ci-nightly build will update Build Cache for ci build (#41968) 
<!-- 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 pull request introduces a new nightly pre-warm pipeline and adds
configurability for MSBuild cache read-only behavior across the CI
pipeline templates. The main goals are to enable scheduled nightly
builds that pre-warm caches and to provide more granular control over
MSBuild cache policies through pipeline parameters.

Pipeline enhancements:

* Added a new `.pipelines/v2/nightly-prewarm.yml` pipeline that
schedules a nightly pre-warm build for the `main` branch, reusing the
existing CI template and supporting both `x64` and `arm64` platforms.
* Introduced a `msBuildCacheIsReadOnly` parameter (defaulting to `true`)
in both `pipeline-ci-build.yml` and `job-build-project.yml` templates,
allowing control over whether the MSBuild remote cache is used in
read-only mode.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
Dependency and SDK upgrades:

* Upgraded `Microsoft.WindowsAppSDK` and related packages (Base,
Foundation, WinUI, Runtime, DWrite, InteractiveExperiences, Widgets, AI)
to version 1.8.x in all relevant project files, including
`Directory.Packages.props`, `.vcxproj`, `.csproj`, and `packages.config`
files. This also involved updating import paths and error checks for the
new package structure.

* Updated `Microsoft.Web.WebView2` to version 1.0.3179.45 and
`Microsoft.Windows.SDK.BuildTools` to 10.0.26100.4948 in
`Directory.Packages.props`.

Build and packaging improvements:

* Enhanced the MSIX package selection logic in the build pipeline
(`job-build-project.yml`) to prioritize platform-specific packages
(x64/arm64) and provide clearer logging and error handling when no
packages are found.
* Modified `Microsoft.CmdPal.UI.csproj` to disable Appx bundling and set
a specific test directory for Appx packages during CI builds, improving
build output organization.

These updates help ensure the project stays current with the latest SDKs
and improves reliability and transparency in the build process.

## AI summary
This pull request introduces infrastructure and code to support search
functionality for PowerToys settings, including a new search index
specification, a dedicated search library, and updates to the solution
configuration. The main changes are the addition of a spec describing
how settings should be indexed and navigated, the creation of a new
`Common.Search` project with a fuzz search implementation, and updates
to the solution file to include these new components.

**Settings Search Feature Implementation**

* Documentation:
* Added a detailed specification (`settings-search.md`) describing the
structure of PowerToys settings pages, how to index settings, navigation
logic, runtime search, result grouping, build-time indexing strategy,
and corner cases.

* New Search Library:
* Added the new `Common.Search` project to the solution, including its
project file and implementation of a fuzz search service
(`FuzzSearchService<T>`), match options, match results, and search
precision scoring.

* Solution Configuration:
* Updated `PowerToys.sln` to include `Common.Search` and
`Settings.UI.XamlIndexBuilder` projects, and configured their build
settings for various platforms and mapped project dependencies.

**Spell-check Dictionary Updates**

* Added new terms related to navigation and settings UI components (such
as `Navigatable`, `NavigatablePage`, `settingscard`, `Tru`, `tweakable`)
to the spell-check dictionary to support the new search and indexing
features.

64dc8e0f27 [Installer] Upgrade the installer from WiX3 to WiX5 (#40877) 
<!-- 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
Background: The current PowerToys installer is built using Wix3, which
has now been deprecated. To improve security, service quality, and
community support, we’re upgrading the installer to Wix5.

Implementation:
Created Wix5-based projects(PowerToysSetupVext and
PowerToysSetupCustomActionsVNext) within the installer while retaining
the existing Wix3 project. Both versions are built to generate separate
installation packages. The Wix3-related code will be removed after
successful release testing confirms no issues.

Special case:
Wix5 has removed the property for 'ShowFilesInUse'. Now, whenever a file
is in use during installation, a FilesInUse pop-upwill automatically
appear asking for the next step. To ensure this doesn't interfere with
scenarios that require silent installation (e.g. Winget method), we’ve
handled it using the bafunction approach.

75d85f80b9 Remove versions and MS/System packages from NOTICE (#40620) 
We do not need to indicate that we consume System or Microsoft packages;
it is expected that we do so because we are Microsoft and we are using
.NET.

We also don't need to maintain a second list of package versions that is
bound to fall out of date.

We absolutely do not need to cause build breaks when those package
versions change because the build machine updated.

fdd1f47d85 [UI tests] Fix UI test pipeline to properly handle buildSource parameter conditions (#40899) 
<!-- 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
Fixes a logic issue in the UI test automation pipeline where selecting
`latestMainOfficialBuild` would still trigger a full PowerToys build
instead of only building UI tests.

### Why
The pipeline was using template variables in compilation-time
conditions, which doesn't work correctly in pipeline

### fix
Replace template variable references with direct parameter comparisons
in compilation-time conditions

9a998b2056 [UI Tests] Enhance UI Test Automation and Pipeline Support for CmdPal Module (#40871) 
<!-- 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 pull request introduces enhancements to UI test automation,
improvements to pipeline configuration, and project structure updates.
The goal is to improve flexibility, maintainability, and efficiency in
PowerToys’ CI/CD processes.

### UI Test Enhancements:
Delayed Text Input Support
- UI tests now support character-by-character text input with
configurable delays.
- This serves as a workaround for a known CmdPal bug where input is
swallowed too quickly. The delay mitigates the issue until it is fixed
in CmdPal.
 
Centralized Environment Management
- Introduced a new class to centralize environment variable access for
UI test configuration.

CmdPal Launch Handling in Pipelines

- Adjusted test logic to handle CmdPal module startup specifically in CI
pipelines



### Pipeline Configuration Updates:
Build Artifact Customization

- Included test-related folders in pipeline build outputs for better
traceability.

Support for Build ID Targeting

- Added support for specifying PowerToys build IDs in test pipelines,
with conditional logic for specific or latest build selection.

d5b15026ae [UI Test Pipeline] Add platform and installMode to testRunTitle for better test result distinction in pipeline (#40628) 
<!-- 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
Currently, all test runs appear under a generic name in the pipeline,
making it hard to identify which platform or install mode caused
failures. Adding this context improves debugging efficiency and report
clarity.

668f3f3ebd [pipeline] Reduce CI, Fuzz, and UI Test Timeout from 4 Hours to 90 Minutes (#40500) 
<!-- 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 previous timeout for CI, fuzzing, and UI test builds was set to 4
hours, which often caused long wait times even when a job was already
stuck or failing.

To improve development feedback loops and reduce wasted time, the
timeout has been shortened to 90 minutes, which should still be
sufficient for normal runs but helps catch issues earlier.

6d29c3a2c9 [pipeline] feat: Implement flexible UI test pipeline with configurable build and execution modes (#40490) 
<!-- 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
**Root Cause:**
The current pipeline builds the entire solution and runs all UI tests
every time, which takes more than 2 hours to complete.

**Fix**
Make the PowerToys UI test pipeline provides flexible options for
building and testing:

### Pipeline Options

- **useLatestOfficialBuild**: When checked, downloads the latest
official PowerToys build and installs it for testing. This skips the
full solution build and only builds UI test projects.

- **useCurrentBranchBuild**: When checked along with
`useLatestOfficialBuild`, downloads the official build from the current
branch instead of main.

- **uiTestModules**: Specify which UI test modules to build and run.
Examples:
  - `UITests-FancyZones` - Only FancyZones UI tests
  - `MouseUtils.UITests` - Only MouseUtils UI tests
- `['UITests-FancyZones', 'MouseUtils.UITests']` - Multiple specific
modules
  - Leave empty to build and run all UI test modules

### Build Modes

1. **Official Build + Selective Testing** (`useLatestOfficialBuild =
true`)
   - Downloads and installs official PowerToys build
   - Builds only specified UI test projects
   - Runs specified UI tests against installed PowerToys
   - Controlled by `uiTestModules` parameter

2. **Full Build + Testing** (`useLatestOfficialBuild = false`)
   - Builds entire PowerToys solution
   - Builds UI test projects (all or specific based on `uiTestModules`)
   - Runs UI tests (all or specific based on `uiTestModules`)
   - Uses freshly built PowerToys for testing

bf16e10baf Updates for check-spelling v0.0.25 (#40386) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

- #39572 updated check-spelling but ignored:
   > 🐣 Breaking Changes
[Code Scanning action requires a Code Scanning
Ruleset](https://github.com/check-spelling/check-spelling/wiki/Breaking-Change:-Code-Scanning-action-requires-a-Code-Scanning-Ruleset)
If you use SARIF reporting, then instead of the workflow yielding an ❌
when it fails, it will rely on [github-advanced-security
🤖](https://github.com/apps/github-advanced-security) to report the
failure. You will need to adjust your checks for PRs.

This means that check-spelling hasn't been properly doing its job 😦.

I'm sorry, I should have pushed a thing to this repo earlier,...

Anyway, as with most refreshes, this comes with a number of fixes, some
are fixes for typos that snuck in before the 0.0.25 upgrade, some are
for things that snuck in after, some are based on new rules in
spell-check-this, and some are hand written patterns based on running
through this repository a few times.

About the 🐣 **breaking change**: someone needs to create a ruleset for
this repository (see [Code Scanning action requires a Code Scanning
Ruleset: Sample ruleset

](https://github.com/check-spelling/check-spelling/wiki/Breaking-Change:-Code-Scanning-action-requires-a-Code-Scanning-Ruleset#sample-ruleset)).

The alternative to adding a ruleset is to change the condition to not
use sarif for this repository. In general, I think the github
integration from sarif is prettier/more helpful, so I think that it's
the better choice.

You can see an example of it working in:

837d5ca543 Fix signing configuration: Remove 25 obsolete file references from ESRPSigning_core.json (#40241) 
## Summary

This PR fixes the signing pipeline by removing 25 obsolete file
references from `ESRPSigning_core.json` that were causing "0 files out
of: 0 files" errors during the signing process. These references pointed
to files that are either no longer built or were never produced by the
current project structure.

## Root Cause Analysis

The signing configuration contained references to files that fall into
three categories:

1. **Static libraries incorrectly listed as DLLs** - Projects configured
as `StaticLibrary` don't produce `.dll` files
2. **Obsolete/non-existent projects** - References to projects that were
removed or renamed
3. **WinExe projects incorrectly listed as producing DLLs** - C#
projects with `OutputType=WinExe` only produce `.exe` files, not `.dll`
files

## Changes Made

### Static Libraries (3 files removed):
- `Notifications.dll` - notifications project is a StaticLibrary
- `os-detection.dll` - no corresponding project found
- `Telemetry.dll` - telemetry projects are StaticLibraries

### Obsolete Projects (3 files removed):
- `fancyzones.dll` - FancyZones now produces `PowerToys.FancyZones.exe`
- `Wox.dll` - only `Wox.Plugin.dll` and `Wox.Infrastructure.dll` exist
- Duplicate `PowerToys.ManagedTelemetry.dll` entry

### WinExe Projects (19 files removed):
**Preview/Thumbnail Handlers (11 files):**
All preview and thumbnail handler C# projects have `OutputType=WinExe`
and only produce `.exe` files:
- Removed `.dll` entries for: GcodePreviewHandler,
MarkdownPreviewHandler, MonacoPreviewHandler, PdfPreviewHandler,
QoiPreviewHandler, SvgPreviewHandler, GcodeThumbnailProvider,
PdfThumbnailProvider, QoiThumbnailProvider, StlThumbnailProvider,
SvgThumbnailProvider

**Application Modules (8 files):**
- `PowerToys.WorkspacesEditor.dll` and
`PowerToys.WorkspacesLauncherUI.dll`
- `PowerToys.Awake.dll` and `PowerToys.ImageResizer.dll` 
- `PowerToys.ColorPickerUI.dll` and `PowerToys.PowerOCR.dll`
- `PowerToys.PowerAccent.dll` and `PowerToys.PowerLauncher.dll`

## Verification

All removed entries were verified by:
1. Checking project files for `OutputType` and `ConfigurationType`
settings
2. Confirming `AssemblyName` and `TargetName` properties
3. Ensuring no actual built artifacts are affected

The signing process should now successfully find all expected files and
eliminate the "0 files out of: 0 files" pattern.

Fixes #40240.
