034759f949 Fix WinuiEx crash issue (#45443) 
<!-- 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 crash related to `IsShownInSwitchers` when explorer.exe is not
running. The property has been removed from XAML and is now set in the
C# backend with added exception handling to improve stability. No
changes were made for projects where the property is set to true, as
they are not affected.

934c3bbce9 Fix CursorWrap "Automatically activate on utility startup" setting not persisting (#45210) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

Fixes #45185 - CursorWrap "Automatically activate on utility startup"
setting cannot be disabled, and prevents spurious activation on startup.

## PR Checklist

- [x] Closes: #45185
- [x] **Communication:** Issue was reported by community; fix follows
established patterns from MousePointerCrosshairs
- [x] **Tests:** Manual validation performed by contributor (video
available)
- [x] **Localization:** No new user-facing strings added
- [ ] **Dev docs:** N/A - bug fix only
- [ ] **New binaries:** N/A - no new binaries
- [ ] **Documentation updated:** N/A - bug fix only

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

### Problem

Users reported that disabling the "Automatically activate on utility
startup" setting for CursorWrap does not work - the mouse hook always
starts automatically regardless of the setting value.

### Root Causes

1. **`dllmain.cpp` `enable()` method**: `StartMouseHook()` was always
called unconditionally, ignoring `m_autoActivate`.
2. **`MouseUtilsViewModel.cs` `IsCursorWrapEnabled` setter**: enabling
CursorWrap forced `AutoActivate = true`, overriding the user's
preference.
3. **Startup edge case**: the trigger event could remain signaled from a
previous session, immediately toggling CursorWrap on startup even when
AutoActivate is off.

### Solution

1. **`src/modules/MouseUtils/CursorWrap/dllmain.cpp`**: only start the
mouse hook if `m_autoActivate` is true.
2. **`src/settings-ui/Settings.UI/ViewModels/MouseUtilsViewModel.cs`**:
remove the line that forced `AutoActivate = true` when enabling
CursorWrap.
3. **`src/modules/MouseUtils/CursorWrap/dllmain.cpp`**: reset the
trigger event on enable to avoid immediate activation on startup.

### Pattern Reference

This fix follows the same pattern used by **MousePointerCrosshairs**
module which has a similar `AutoActivate` setting that works correctly.

## Validation Steps Performed

### Build

- `tools\build\build.ps1 -Platform x64 -Configuration Debug`

### Manual validation (contributor)

#### Test Case 1: AutoActivate = false (should NOT auto-start mouse
hook)

1. Open PowerToys Settings → Mouse Utilities → Cursor Wrap
2. Enable Cursor Wrap
3. **Disable** "Automatically activate on utility startup"
4. Close PowerToys completely (right-click tray icon → Exit)
5. Restart PowerToys
6. **Expected Result**: CursorWrap module is loaded but mouse hook is
NOT active - cursor does NOT wrap at screen edges
7. Press activation hotkey (default: `Win+Alt+U`)
8. **Expected Result**: Mouse hook activates, cursor now wraps at screen
edges
9. **Actual Result**: ✅ Works as expected

#### Test Case 2: AutoActivate = true (should auto-start mouse hook)

1. Open PowerToys Settings → Mouse Utilities → Cursor Wrap
2. Enable Cursor Wrap
3. **Enable** "Automatically activate on utility startup"
4. Close PowerToys completely
5. Restart PowerToys
6. **Expected Result**: Mouse hook is immediately active, cursor wraps
at screen edges without pressing hotkey
7. **Actual Result**: ✅ Works as expected

#### Test Case 3: Setting persistence after restart

1. Set AutoActivate = false, restart PowerToys
2. Open Settings and verify AutoActivate is still false
3. Set AutoActivate = true, restart PowerToys
4. Open Settings and verify AutoActivate is still true
5. **Actual Result**: ✅ Setting persists correctly

#### Test Case 4: Hotkey toggle works correctly

1. With AutoActivate = false, restart PowerToys
2. Press hotkey → cursor should start wrapping
3. Press hotkey again → cursor should stop wrapping
4. **Actual Result**: ✅ Hotkey toggle works correctly

ac548297c9 Add option to disable CursorWrap when on a single monitor. (#45303) 
## Summary of the Pull Request
CursorWrap wraps on the outer edge of monitors, if a user is swapping
between a laptop and docked laptop with external monitors the user might
want to only enable wrapping when connected to external monitors, and
disable when only on the laptop.

and link it here: #xxx

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
Currently CursorWrap will wrap around the horizontal/vertical edges of
monitors, if the user has more than one monitor the outer edges are used
as wrap targets, if the user only has one monitor (perhaps a laptop)
wrapping might be temporarily disabled until additional external
monitors are added (such as being plugged into a dock or using a USB-C
monitor).

The new option will disable wrapping if only a single monitor is
detected, monitor detection is dynamic.

## Validation Steps Performed
Validated on a Surface Laptop 7 Pro (Intel) with a USB-C External
Monitor.

17a215d321 Fix Advanced Paste settings page crash issue (#45207) 
<!-- 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 refactors the `AdvancedPasteAdditionalActions` class
to use private backing fields and custom property accessors for its
action properties. This change allows for better control over property
initialization and ensures that the properties always have valid,
non-null default values.

**Refactoring for property initialization and null safety:**

* Introduced private backing fields (`_imageToText`, `_pasteAsFile`,
`_transcode`) for the `ImageToText`, `PasteAsFile`, and `Transcode`
properties in `AdvancedPasteAdditionalActions`, replacing
auto-properties.
* Updated the property accessors for `ImageToText`, `PasteAsFile`, and
`Transcode` to use the new backing fields and ensure that a new default
instance is assigned if a null value is provided during initialization.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
Before, there was a function that initialized some variables about the
current system state that were later used to check against if that state
needed to change in a different function. That caused from some issues
because I was reusing the function for a double purpose. Now the
`SyncInitialThemeState()` function in the State Manager will sync those
initial variables and apply the correct theme if needed.

I also removed an unnecessary parameter from `onTick`

67518dd754 Workspace: Fix an overlay issue for workspace snapshot draw (#45183) 
<!-- 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: Workspaces uses DPI-unaware coordinates (via
GetDpiUnawareScreens()
which runs in a temporary DPI-unaware thread) to store/match window
positions
across different DPI settings. However, WorkspacesEditor itself uses
PerMonitorV2
DPI awareness for UI clarity. When assigning these DPI-unaware
coordinates directly
to WPF window properties, WPF automatically scaled them again based on
current DPI,
causing incorrect overlay positioning.

Fix: Use SetWindowPositionDpiUnaware() to bypass WPF's automatic DPI
scaling
by temporarily switching to DPI-unaware context when calling Win32
SetWindowPos.

3eae35f356 [ImageResizer] Fix Image Resizer not working after upgrade on Windows 10 (#45184) 
<!-- 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 an issue where Image Resizer stops working after upgrading
PowerToys on Windows 10
- Root cause: the PackageIdentityMSIX (sparse app) was not being
properly cleaned up during upgrade

## Problem
Previous versions of PowerToys installed the sparse app on Windows 10.
The current version only installs it on Windows 11+ (build >= 22000).
During upgrade on Windows 10:
1. The `NOT UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE` condition prevented the uninstall
action from running
2. The Windows 11 version check prevented the new sparse app from being
installed
3. Result: the old sparse app remained on the system, causing Image
Resizer to malfunction

## Fix
Changed the `UninstallPackageIdentityMSIX` condition from:
Installed AND (NOT UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE) AND (REMOVE="ALL")
to:
Installed AND (REMOVE="ALL")

This ensures the old sparse app is properly cleaned up during upgrades,
which is also consistent with other similar cleanup

2441621b80 CmdPal: Remove deadlock bait from AppListItem (#45076) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR removes a Task.Wait() call from lazy-loading AppListItem details
that could be invoked on the UI thread and lead to a deadlock.

It now follows the same pattern previously used for loading icons in the
same class, which has proven to work well.

Prevents #44938 from stepping on this landmine.

Cherry-picked from #44973.

1ca9d10ff5 [Settings] [Advanced Paste] Upgrade advanced paste settings safely to fix settings ui crash (#44862) 
<!-- 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 makes a minor fix in the `AdvancedPasteViewModel`
constructor to ensure the correct settings repository is used for null
checking. The change improves code correctness by verifying
`advancedPasteSettingsRepository` instead of the generic
`settingsRepository`.

- Fixed null check to use `advancedPasteSettingsRepository` instead of
`settingsRepository` in the `AdvancedPasteViewModel` constructor for
more accurate validation.

b438f15f6e [Peek] Fix Space key triggering during file rename (#44845) (#44995) 
Don't show error window when CurrentItem is null - just return silently.
This restores the original behavior where CaretVisible() detection in
GetSelectedItems() would suppress Peek by returning null, and no window
would be shown.

PR #44703 added an error window for virtual folders (Home/Recent), but
this also triggered when user was typing (rename, search, address bar),
stealing focus and cancelling the operation.

Fixes #44845

48de981f50 Add telemetry for tray icon (#44985) 
<!-- 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 telemetry tracking for user interactions with the
application's tray icon. Specifically, it introduces new methods for
logging `left-click`, `right-click`, and `double-click` events, and
integrates these telemetry calls into the tray icon event handling
logic.

9ab6559fac [Settings] Fix right click menu display issue (#44982) 
<!-- 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 updates the tray icon context menu logic to better
reflect the state of the "Quick Access" feature. The menu now
dynamically updates its items and labels based on whether Quick Access
is enabled or disabled, improving clarity for users.

**Menu behavior improvements:**

* The tray icon menu now reloads itself when the Quick Access setting
changes, ensuring the menu always matches the current state.
* The "Settings" menu item label changes to "Settings\tLeft-click" when
Quick Access is disabled, providing clearer instructions to users.

* The Quick Access menu item is removed from the context menu when the
feature is disabled, preventing confusion.

**Internal state tracking:**

* Added a new variable `last_quick_access_state` to track the previous
Quick Access state and trigger menu reloads only when necessary.

1dddf9fa2c "What's new" improvements (#44638) 
<!-- 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

TO DO: Upgrade to the latest version of MarkdownTextBlock:
https://github.com/CommunityToolkit/Labs-Windows/pull/771

This PR introduces the following changes:
**Removed the custom titlebars on the OOBE Window, and replaced it with
the inbox WinUI `TitleBar` control.**

**New "What's new" experience following the VS Code release notes
experience**
- Created a new SCOOBE Windows that is a standalone window to better
visualize release notes.
- Adding a nav menu on the left to easily switch between release notes,
instead of a long page.
- Point releases are combined with the latest main release.. e.g. 0.96.1
is rendered above 0.96.0.
- The 'hero image' on main release notes will automatically be rendered
at the top of the page.
- Improved markdown styling for better readability.
- Pull requests links can now be clicked.
- Upgraded `CommunityToolkit.Labs.MarkdownTextblock` to the latest
version as it includes much needed bugfixes.

Note: the blurry image shown above will be replaced in new releases by
an image that fits the right dimensions.

0d59b9f790 Chore: Fix broken links in README.md (#44658) 
The repository README.md has several formatting issues in [Installation
section](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys#-installation),
resulting in invalid link references. It's mainly because Markdown
references won't be rendered in HTML blocks.

This trivial PR just fixes that, nothing fancy. Have a nice day!

e314485e85 Improve module enable/disable IPC and sorting reliability (#44734) 
<!-- 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

- Refactored the runner logic for handling individual module
enable/disable updates. Instead of receiving the entire settings.json
via IPC, it now processes only single-module state updates, which avoids
race conditions and fixes a bug where modules could end up being
skipped.
- Fixed an issue where the sort order option could be deselected — it is
now enforced as a mutually exclusive choice.
- Fixed a potential race condition when updating the AppList control’s
sorting.

175403d86d fix: Improve tray icon theming and installer icon handling (#44715) 
Add "svgs" directory and icon files to installer, ensuring proper
install/uninstall and registry registration. Enhance logging in
general_settings.cpp for theme-adaptive tray icon config changes.
Refactor tray_icon.cpp to improve icon loading robustness, add detailed
diagnostics, and ensure fallback to default icon if theme-adaptive icon
fails to load. These changes improve error handling and maintainability
for tray icon theming.

c8da70d6fa CmdPal: Replace assembly metadata attributes with preprocessor directives (#44707) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR replaces custom metadata attributes used to pass build-time
information with preprocessor directives. It appears that metadata can
be stripped from the final build output, even though it survived AOT in
earlier tests on the main and stable branches.

New preprocesor directives in Microsoft.CmdPal.UI:
- `BUILD_INFO_PUBLISH_AOT` - when `PublishAot` MSBuild parameter is
`true`
- `BUILD_INFO_PUBLISH_TRIMMED `- when `PublishTrimmed` MSBuild parameter
is `true`
- `BUILD_INFO_CIBUILD `- when `CIBuild` MSBuild parameter is `true`

Using preprocessor directives avoids this uncertainty and provides a
more reliable solution.

74448355f9 Peek: Show error message when activated in unsupported virtual folders (#44703) 
<!-- 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

When Peek is activated in virtual folders like Home or Recent, it now
displays a clear error message instead of showing a stuck loading state
or "Search in Microsoft Store" link.

### Problem
When users activate Peek (press the hotkey) in Windows virtual folders
such as Home or Recent, the Shell API (SVGIO_SELECTION) returns 0 items
because these folders don't support the standard file selection
retrieval mechanism. Previously, this caused:

- The Peek window to appear stuck in a loading state
- The "Search in Microsoft Store" fallback UI to display incorrectly
- Subsequent Peek activations to fail until the window was manually
closed

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/fd657e46-97f8-4042-bf43-971055f74700"
/>

### Solution

- Added a check in `Initialize()` to detect when no files are found
after querying the Shell
- Display an error InfoBar with a user-friendly message: "No files
selected or this folder is not supported for preview."
- Hide the `FilePreview` control when the error is shown to prevent
displaying irrelevant fallback UI
- Close the window automatically when the user dismisses the InfoBar
(clicks X)

b68b84532c Fix ESRP Code Signing Node 16 EOL is blocking app signing (#44695) 
<!-- 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
We’re hitting an issue where ESRP Code Signing (EsrpCodeSigning@5) is
now blocking our app from being signed.
The pipeline reports a Node 16 EOL dependency, and at this point the app
can no longer be signed successfully.

Fix Upgrade the version to 6

8b79da5d49 Fix Image Resizer doesn’t work when using the UI. (#44687) 
<!-- 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
1. Update the CLI Log Folder
2. Fixes an `ArgumentOutOfRangeException` that occurs in ImageResizer
when the `CustomSize` or `AiSize` properties change.

/>

Changed the collection changed notification from `Replace` to `Reset`
for both `CustomSize` and `AiSize` property changes. While `Reset` is
less efficient (it forces a full UI refresh rather than updating a
single item), it avoids the index validation issue since it doesn't
require specifying an index.

c88fe1fa0e [FancyZonesCLI] Fix PowerShell GUID parsing and add subcommand help (#44676) 
<!-- 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

<!-- Please review the items on the PR checklist before submitting-->
## PR Checklist
This PR improves FancyZones CLI usability with three enhancements:

1. **PowerShell GUID compatibility**: Users can now pass GUIDs without
braces (e.g., `0CEBCBA9-9C32-4395-B93E-DC77485AD6D0`), avoiding
PowerShell's script block interpretation issue
2. **Subcommand help**: Added `--help` support for individual commands
(e.g., `FancyZonesCLI set-layout --help`)
3. **Friendly error messages**: When PowerShell incorrectly interprets
`{GUID}` as a script block, displays a helpful message instead of
cryptic errors

0314a709f5 Optimize the module list logic (#44628) 
<!-- 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 refactors how module enable/disable state changes are
handled in the settings UI, centralizing and simplifying the logic for
updating and notifying these changes. The main improvements include
unifying the callback mechanism for enable state changes, reducing code
duplication, and making the update process more robust against circular
updates.

**Refactoring and Simplification of Enable State Handling:**

* Introduced a unified `EnabledChangedCallback` and `UpdateStatus`
method in the base `ModuleListItem` class to handle enable/disable state
changes and notifications, replacing redundant logic in derived classes
like `FlyoutMenuItem` and `DashboardListItem`.

* Updated all usages to call `UpdateStatus` instead of directly setting
`IsEnabled`, ensuring callbacks are managed consistently and preventing
unnecessary notifications during programmatic updates.

**Improvements to Callback and Update Logic:**

* Changed the signature of UI event handlers to use the base
`ModuleListItem` type, improving code maintainability and reducing
casting and duplication.

**Project and Namespace Adjustments:**

* Updated the project file to include all localized resource files
recursively, improving localization support.
* Added a missing namespace import to ensure proper type resolution.
* Added a missing `using System;` directive for the `Action` delegate.

a246789719 docs(prompts): sync commit/pr guidance and Copilot settings (#44627) 
## Summary of the Pull Request
- Clarified the PR-summary prompt to prepend a PR title and to reuse the
Conventional Commit rules from
`.github/prompts/create-commit-title.prompt.md`.
- Expanded the commit-title prompt with clearer purpose, inputs, and
Conventional Commit guidance.
- Added workspace Copilot chat settings in `.vscode/settings.json` to
point review/commit/PR generation at the repo prompt files.

e.g. for commit tile generation:
<img width="562" height="376" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ca11d117-e4ad-4d1e-abb7-2b4600690f45"
/>


## PR Checklist
- [ ] Closes: N/A
- [ ] Communication: N/A (prompt/settings maintenance)
- [ ] Tests: Not run (prompt/settings-only change)

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
- The PR-summary workflow now directs PR title generation to the
existing commit-title prompt instead of duplicating rules, and places
the title above the filled template.
- The commit-title prompt now spells out required diff command, decision
steps, and Conventional Commit examples.
- VS Code Copilot chat settings ensure review, commit, and PR
description generation use the repository prompts consistently.

6c2a99dfd6 Fix FancyZones editor overlay on mixed-DPI multi-monitor setups (#44440) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

Use DPI-unaware context when positioning overlay windows to match the
coordinate space from the C++ backend.

The FancyZones editor overlay windows were incorrectly positioned on
secondary monitors when using different DPI scaling (e.g.,
125%/150%/125%). Zones appeared shifted or clipped because they extended
past monitor edges.

## PR Checklist

- [x] Closes: #43363
- [x] Closes: #43386
- [ ] **Communication:** I've discussed this with core contributors
already.
- [ ] **Tests:** Added/updated and all pass
- [ ] **Localization:** All end-user-facing strings can be localized
- [ ] **Dev docs:** Added/updated
- [ ] **New binaries:** Added on the required places

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

### Root Cause
The C++ backend uses a DPI-unaware thread to get virtual screen
coordinates, but the WPF editor (PerMonitorV2 DPI-aware) interpreted
these coordinates with DPI scaling applied, causing misalignment on
non-primary monitors.

### Fix
- **EditorParameters.cpp**: Use consistent virtual coordinates for all
monitor properties (removed `DPIAware::Convert` that was only applied to
dimensions)
- **Monitor.cs**: Reposition overlay windows using DPI-unaware context
after HWND creation, matching the coordinate space from C++ backend
- **NativeMethods.cs**: Added `SetWindowPositionDpiUnaware()` using
`SetThreadDpiAwarenessContext` to temporarily switch DPI awareness

## Validation Steps Performed

Manually tested on 3-monitor setup with 125%/150%/125% DPI scaling -
overlays now correctly cover each monitor's work area.

🤖 *This fix was developed with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code)
after 6 hours of debugging DPI coordinate systems together.*
