9c58574484 Revert "[Light Switch] Switch desktop wallpapers with the Light/Dark mode" (#44588) 
This uses IVirtualDesktopManagerInternal*, which is an undocumented
Windows Shell internal API.
These interfaces are not stable and can change across Windows updates,
so using them in PowerToys carries some long-term risk

<!-- Provide a more detailed description of the PR, other things fixed,
or any additional comments/features here -->
## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
It was asked why this feature is needed at all, because it could be done
with snipping tool and just AoT that window as well. While this is true,
PowerToys goal always was to improve and speed up workflows. Instead of
capturing the screenshot, opening it, and then apply "Crop and Lock" or
"Always on Top" on the screenshots window, this PR aims to provide this
functionality in a single step.

Example use cases:
- _when I want to compare between two situations like previous output
result and current output result._ (#31799)
- _Allow cropping a section of a large code file (say top while working
at the bottom) as reference while working elsewhere in the file._
(#33071)
- _Can be useful for the work in the same document, like excel or word
where you are actively checking the data from the same document._
(#28633)
- _In lot's of older applications, if you need to get some information
or data from one dialog do another, but because of dialog modality it's
not possible to have both windows open at the same time._ (#33812)
- _nowadays quite a lot is happening inside the browser. Quite often, I
want to keep a small portion of the current website visible and switch
to e.g. the writing tool also running in a different tab in the same
browser window._ (#31799)


I've used win+ctrl+shift+s as the default activation shortcut, as it's
not yet used by other powertoys utilities, has similarity with the
normal win+shift+s shortcut hotkey and is consistent with the other Crop
and Lock shortcuts win+ctrl+shift+r (Reparent Mode) and win+ctrl+shift+t
(Thumbnail Mode).

<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed

Compatibility tested manually with a large set of applications I have
installed on my computer. However, automated tests don't really make
sense as there is not much business logic which could be tested.

48e95caf39 [PowerRename] Fix Unicode characters and non-breaking spaces not being correctly normalized before matching (#43972) 
## Summary of the Pull Request
Fixes PowerRename failing to normalise different Unicode forms before
matching. This results in filenames containing visually identical
characters to the search term from failing to match because their
underlying binary representations differ.

This affects renaming files created on macOS which names files in NFD
(decomposed form) rather than Windows' NFC (precomposed form).

Additionally, this fixes matching to filenames containing non-breaking
space characters, which can be created by automated systems and web
downloaders. Previously, the NBSP character would fail to match a normal
space.

and link it here: #xxx

<!-- Provide a more detailed description of the PR, other things fixed,
or any additional comments/features here -->
## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
The underlying issue is a binary mismatch between:

1. Precomposed characters (NFC) typed by Windows users, e.g. `U+0439` -
`й`.
2. Decomposed characters (NFD) found in filenames from other platforms
(or copied from text), e.g. `U+0438` `U+0306` - `и` + `̆ `.
3. Standard spaces (`U+0020`) versus non-breaking spaces (`U+00A0`).

### Updates to PowerRenameRegex.cpp

I added a `SanitizeAndNormalize` function which replaces all
non-breaking spaces with standard spaces and normalises the string to
**Normalization Form C** using Win32's `NormalizeString`.

`PutSearchTerm` and `PutReplaceTerm` now normalise input immediately
before performing any other processing.

`Replace` now normalises the `source` filename before processing.

I updated the RegEx path to ensure it runs against the normalised
`sourceToUse` string instead of the raw `source` string; otherwise regex
matches would fail.

<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
Manually tested the use case detailed in #43971 with the following
filenames:

- `Testй NFC.txt`
- `Testй NFD.txt`

Result:

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/55dd4f01-8ec9-462c-a20f-dd246c368cf5"
/>

There are two new unit tests which exercise both the non-breaking space
and Unicode form normalisation issues. These run on both the Boost- and
non-Boost test paths, adding four tests to the total. All new tests fail
as expected on the prior code and all PowerRename tests pass
successfully with the changes in this PR:

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

### Review Tools Added (`.github/review-tools/`)

**Core Scripts:**
1. **`Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1`** (173 lines) - Compares last
reviewed commit SHA with current PR head to identify incremental
changes. Returns JSON with changed files, new commits, and review
recommendations. Handles scenarios: first review, no changes, force-push
detection, and incremental changes.

2. **`Test-IncrementalReview.ps1`** (170 lines) - Helper script to
preview incremental review detection before running full review.
Displays colored console output showing current vs last reviewed SHAs,
changed files, new commits, and recommended review strategy.

3. **`Migrate-ReviewToIncrementalFormat.ps1`** (206 lines) - One-time
migration script to add review metadata sections to existing
`00-OVERVIEW.md` files, enabling incremental review functionality for
legacy PR reviews.

4. **`Get-GitHubRawFile.ps1`** (91 lines) - Downloads file content from
GitHub repository at specific git reference for baseline comparison
during reviews. Supports optional line numbering.

5. **`Get-GitHubPrFilePatch.ps1`** (79 lines) - Fetches unified diff
(patch) for a specific file in a pull request using GitHub API.

6. **`review-tools.instructions.md`** (355 lines) - Comprehensive
documentation covering script usage, workflow integration, error
handling, best practices, and AI integration examples. Serves as Copilot
instructions for the review tools.

### AI Prompt Templates Added (`.github/prompts/`)

1. **`review-pr.prompt.md`** (200 lines) - Structured prompt for
comprehensive PR reviews with incremental review support
2. **`review-issue.prompt.md`** (158 lines) - Template for systematic
issue analysis and triage
3. **`fix-issue.prompt.md`** (71 lines) - Guided workflow for
implementing issue fixes
4. **Minor updates** to `create-commit-title.prompt.md` and
`create-pr-summary.prompt.md` for consistency

### Key Features

**Incremental Review Flow:**
- Initial review (iteration 1): Creates overview with metadata including
HEAD SHA
- Subsequent reviews (iteration 2+): Reads last reviewed SHA, detects
changes, reviews only modified files
- Smart step filtering: Skips irrelevant review steps based on file
types changed (e.g., skip Localization if no `.resx` files changed)

**Error Handling:**
- Detects force-push scenarios (last reviewed SHA no longer in history)
- Validates GitHub CLI authentication
- Provides detailed error messages with actionable solutions
- Exit code 1 on errors for automation compatibility

**Integration:**
- Works with GitHub CLI (`gh`) for API access
- JSON output for programmatic consumption
- Designed for AI-powered review systems (Copilot integration)
- Metadata tracking for context-aware suggestions

## Validation Steps Performed

**Manual Testing:**
1. ✅ Verified all PowerShell scripts follow PSScriptAnalyzer rules
2. ✅ Tested `Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1` with various scenarios:
   - First review (no previous SHA)
   - No changes (SHA matches current)
   - Force-push detection (SHA not in history)
   - Incremental changes (multiple commits and files)
3. ✅ Validated `Test-IncrementalReview.ps1` output formatting and
accuracy
4. ✅ Confirmed `Migrate-ReviewToIncrementalFormat.ps1` adds metadata
without corrupting existing reviews
5. ✅ Tested GitHub API integration with `Get-GitHubRawFile.ps1` and
`Get-GitHubPrFilePatch.ps1`
6. ✅ Verified documentation accuracy and completeness in
`review-tools.instructions.md`
7. ✅ Validated prompt templates follow PowerToys repo conventions from
`.github/copilot-instructions.md`

**Dependencies Verified:**
- Requires PowerShell 7+ (or Windows PowerShell 5.1+)
- Requires GitHub CLI (`gh`) installed and authenticated
- All scripts include comprehensive help documentation (`Get-Help`
support)

**No Automated Tests:** These are development/CI tooling scripts used by
maintainers for PR reviews. Manual validation appropriate as they
interact with live GitHub API and require human judgment for review
quality assessment.

f1e045751a CmdPal: Fallback ranking and global results (#43549) 
> [!IMPORTANT]
> For extension developers, this release includes a new required `string
Id` property for `FallbackCommandItem`. While your existing extensions
will continue to work, without this `Id` being set, your fallbacks will
not display and will not be rankable.
> Before this is released, you will want to prepare your extension
fallbacks.
> 
> As an example, we are naming our built-in extensions as:
> - Calculator extension provider Id:
`com.microsoft.cmdpal.builtin.calculator`
> - Calculator extension fallback:
`com.microsoft.cmdpal.builtin.calculator.fallback`
> 
> While the content of the Id isn't important, what is important is that
it is unique to your extension and fallback to avoid conflicting with
other extensions.

Now the good stuff:

## What the heck does it do!?

### The backstory

In PowerToys 0.95, we released performance improvements to Command
Palette. One of the many ways we improved its speed is by no longer
ranking fallback commands with other "top level" commands. Instead, all
fallbacks would surface at the bottom of the results and be listed in
the order they were registered with Command Palette. But this was only a
temporary solution until the work included in this pull request was
ready.

In reality, not all fallbacks were treated equally. We marked the
calculator and run fallbacks as "special." Special fallbacks **were**
ranked like top-level commands and allowed to surface to the top of the
results.

### The new "hotness"

This PR brings the power of fallback management back to the people. In
the Command Palette settings, you, dear user, can specify what order you
want fallbacks to display in at the bottom of the results. This keeps
those fallbacks unranked by Command Palette but displays them in an
order that makes sense for you. But keep in mind, these will still live
at the bottom of search results.

But alas, we have also heard your cries that you'd like _some_ fallbacks
to be ranked by Command Palette and surface to the top of the results.
So, this PR allows you to mark any fallback as "special" by choosing to
include them in the global results. Special (Global) fallbacks are
treated like "top level" commands and appear in the search result based
on their title & description.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

Since `CollectionViewSource` was causing performance issues and
@zadjii-msft asked for a new approach, I came up with this idea, heavily
inspired by how separators work on the `ContextMenu`, `FiltersDropDown`
and `Details`.

The way this is currently working is: Any ListItem where `Section` is
not null and `Command` is null, is considered a Separator.

On my tests, this seems to be working fine. Tried to make this work
without changes to the API, but I think this needs to be discussed.

97c1de8bf6 CmdPal: Light, dark, pink, and unicorns (#43505) 
<!-- 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 user settings for app mode themes (dark, light, or
system) and background customization options, including custom colors,
system accent colors, or custom images.

- Adds a new page to the Settings window with new appearance settings
and moves some existing settings there as well.
- Introduces a new core-level service abstraction, `IThemeService`, that
holds the state for the current theme.
- Uses the helper class `ResourceSwapper` to update application-level
XAML resources. The way WinUI / XAML handles these is painful, and XAML
Hot Reload is pain². Initialization must be lazy, as XAML resources can
only be accessed after the window is activated.
- `ThemeService` takes app and system settings and selects one of the
registered `IThemeProvider`s to calculate visuals and choose the
appropriate XAML resources.
  - At the moment, there are two:
    - `NormalThemeProvider`
      - Provides the current uncolorized light and dark styles  
      - `ms-appx:///Styles/Theme.Normal.xaml`
    - `ColorfulThemeProvider`
- Style that matches the Windows 11 visual style (based on the Start
menu) and colors
      - `ms-appx:///Styles/Theme.Colorful.xaml`  
- Applied when the background is colorized or a background image is
selected
- The app theme is applied only on the main window
(`WindowThemeSynchronizer` helper class can be used to synchronize other
windows if needed).
- Adds a new dependency on `Microsoft.Graphics.Win2D`.
- Adds a custom color picker popup; the one from the Community Toolkit
occasionally loses the selected color.
- Flyby: separates the keyword tag and localizable label for pages in
the Settings window navigation.

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}
```

52f2561937 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.

bc0a760aff 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.


## Pictures? Pictures!

0de60445ea 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.

9f95d9b477 [ZoomIt] Fix screenshot save accuracy issue and GDI object leak (#43375) 
<!-- 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 fixes two issues with the ZoomIt screenshot save function:

- The "actual size" saved bitmap was recomputed from the zoomed-in
viewport, leading to artefacts and a non-1:1 pixel accurate output if
smooth mode was active.
- Two bitmap objects were not deleted after being selected, leading to a
leak of 1 or 2 GDI objects per screenshot save operation.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
### GDI object leak
In the prior code, bitmap objects were created:

```cpp
            // Capture the screen before displaying the save dialog
            hInterimSaveDc = CreateCompatibleDC( hdcScreen );
            hInterimSaveBitmap = CreateCompatibleBitmap( hdcScreen, copyWidth, copyHeight );
            SelectObject( hInterimSaveDc, hInterimSaveBitmap );
...
                    hSaveBitmap = CreateCompatibleBitmap( hdcScreen, saveWidth, saveHeight );
                    SelectObject( hSaveDc, hSaveBitmap );
```

but were not deleted in the clean-up:

```cpp
            DeleteDC( hInterimSaveDc );
            DeleteDC( hSaveDc );
```

Deleting their associated device contexts orphans the bitmaps and the
GDI objects will not be recovered until ZoomIt is closed.

### Fix
The code now uses RAII for handles to DCs and Bitmaps, e.g.:

```cpp
                    wil::unique_hdc hdcZoomed( CreateCompatibleDC(hdcScreen) );
                    wil::unique_hbitmap hbmZoomed(
                        CreateCompatibleBitmap( hdcScreen, copyWidth, copyHeight ) );
                    SelectObject( hdcZoomed.get(), hbmZoomed.get() );
```

The handles are automatically cleaned up when the variables go out of
scope.

The existing `DeleteDC` code has been removed.

### Screenshot Actual Size save issue

ZoomIt's save screenshot routine operated on the currently-displayed
view, i.e. the zoomed-in viewport, executing a copy of the full monitor
resolution image to begin:

```cpp
            StretchBlt( hInterimSaveDc,
                        0, 0,
                        copyWidth, copyHeight,
                        hdcScreen,
                        monInfo.rcMonitor.left + copyX,
                        monInfo.rcMonitor.top + copyY,
                        copyWidth, copyHeight,
                        SRCCOPY|CAPTUREBLT );
```
(Here hdcScreen represents the zoomed-in image.)

When "Actual size" was selected by the user, this bitmap was scaled back
down to attempt to reproduce the 1:1 pixel source:

```cpp
                    StretchBlt( hSaveDc,
                                0, 0,
                                saveWidth, saveHeight,
                                hInterimSaveDc,
                                0,
                                0,
                                copyWidth, copyHeight,
                                SRCCOPY | CAPTUREBLT );
				
                    SavePng( targetFilePath, hSaveBitmap );
```

This mostly works if the smooth mode is not applied because the zoom
levels tend to produce integer zoomed pixel sizes, although it still
produces inexact results at times.

The main issue is that the new smooth mode produces a halftone-smoothed
output on the display. Attempting to scale this back down to a
pixel-accurate source removes high frequency detail and does not reflect
the underlying bitmap:

Original source:
<img width="523" height="186" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/7a6dca02-8608-44ed-917f-c6fd1a7b112c"
/>

"Actual size" save result before fix:
<img width="524" height="211" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/29c63018-1e8d-4e74-a572-3615686aaa61"
/>

### Fix

This fix reverses the prior logic. Instead of using the zoomed-in
viewport as the screenshot source, we start by blitting a copy of the
source bitmap itself, from `hdcScreenCompat`. If a zoomed screenshot is
required, this is used as the source of the resize, i.e. we replicate
the zoom the user sees in their viewport.

This approach:

- Is faster and saves memory. It removes the need for an initial
`StretchBlt` operation, and the working bitmap itself is significantly
smaller if the user is zoomed in.
- Saves on the second resize operation if "Actual size" is chosen. We
can simply save the copy as-is.
- Removes the need to care about monitor coords. All calculations are
relative to the top-left of the source bitmap copy.
- Simplifies the code. In addition to being able to remove some code,
locality is improved - the creation of the zoomed image (and the
application of smoothing, if required) is now immediately next to where
it is saved.

<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed

(Manual validation on standalone ZoomIt build.)

- Confirmed that "Actual size" screenshots are now 1:1 copies of the
underlying bitmap, not scaled copies of the screen display.
- Confirmed that screenshots no longer leak GDI objects in either
"Zoomed" or "Actual size" modes.
- Tested cropped and non-cropped saves, i.e. using
<kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>Shift</kbd>+<kbd>S</kbd> versus
<kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>S</kbd>.
- Tested that user-added drawing/text was preserved in screenshots.
- Tested that both smooth and non-smooth zoom modes operate as they did
previously.
- Tested on multiple monitors, including a high-DPI external monitor
running at 175% scaling.

b7eed480ba Spellchecking: Update spell-checking dictionary (#42294) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR updates the spell-checking dictionaries to fix outstanding
errors, and also clears up accumulated warnings.

- Cleans up duplicate or ignored entries in expect.txt:
    - `Authenticode` (favoring existing `authenticode`)
    - `DTo` (favoring existing `dto`)
    - `ekus` (favoring existing `eku`)
    - `nullrefs` (favoring existing `nullref`)
- Removes `CursorWrap` (invalid entry since camel case is treated as
separate words and is not allowed)
- Updates the pattern for `amazon.com` URLs to allow them within C#
strings
- Explicitly excludes the CmdPal sample page for images in Markdown with
Base64 encoded data from spell-checking (was previously auto-excluded)
- Suppresses spell-checking on lines with URLs containing encoded data

47c779e0a0 Run: handle DWM issues more gracefully (#42588) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR expands the scenarios where Run handles exceptions silently,
reducing the number of exception dialogs displayed to users and creating
a smoother experience. The premise remains unchanged: most exceptions
occur when Run is in the background, and the app can recover as the DWM
recovers.

This should cover most of the reports commonly encountered in the wild.

- Extended silent handling of DWM exceptions to include
`DWM_E_COMPOSITIONDISABLED` (0x80263001).
- Added silent handling for `STATUS_MESSAGE_LOST` error (NTSTATUS
0xC0000701, HR 0xD0000701).
- Implemented exception handling and retry logic for failures during
manual app theme changes (triggered by
`PowerLauncher.Helper.ThemeManager`).

I can't reproduce the error on its own; it only occurs alongside a fatal
render thread failure (`UCEERR_RENDERTHREADFAILURE`), which is
unrecoverable. Even if caught, the UI stops rendering, leaving the
end-user unable to proceed.

## 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.

Adds a rough implementation that appears to work, but it hasn’t been
tested. Don’t rely on it yet—I’m too tired to test properly or write a
polished commit message.

## Summary of the Pull Request

This is a PR for issue **#42260**.
It targets **CmdPal’s WindowWalker** and changes the icon retrieval to
use **SendMessage** to obtain the window’s actual icon, instead of using
the **process icon**.

To support this, I added a new configuration option.

`IntPtr` `hIcon` into an `IRandomAccessStream`, as shown below:

```
 private static MemoryStream GetMemoryStreamFromIcon(IntPtr hIcon)
 {
     var memoryStream = new MemoryStream();

     // Ensure disposing the icon before freeing the handle
     using (var icon = Icon.FromHandle(hIcon))
     {
         icon.ToBitmap().Save(memoryStream, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Png);
     }

     // Clean up the unmanaged handle without risking a use-after-free.
     NativeMethods.DestroyIcon(hIcon);

     memoryStream.Position = 0;
     return memoryStream;
 }

 private static async Task<IRandomAccessStream?> FromHIconToStream(IntPtr hIcon)
 {
     var stream = new InMemoryRandomAccessStream();

     using var memoryStream = GetMemoryStreamFromIcon(hIcon); // this will DestroyIcon hIcon
     using var outputStream = stream.GetOutputStreamAt(0);
     using var dataWriter = new DataWriter(outputStream);

     dataWriter.WriteBytes(memoryStream.ToArray());
     await dataWriter.StoreAsync();
     await dataWriter.FlushAsync();

     return stream;
 }
```

Without modifying (or using) this code, I implemented the almost same
logic directly in `SwitchToWindowCommand` (calling the async code with
`Wait` to block synchronously). The reasons are:

1. I wanted to limit changes to the **WindowWalker** project area. I
don’t expect other extensions to need this behavior.
2. Because this is resource-related work, exposing a public helper that
pulls memory from an `hIcon` pointer seems risky—especially in a class
like `ThumbnailHelper`.

Therefore, I implemented behavior that is nearly identical to the
snippet above.

I did use `using`/`Dispose` where appropriate, but the
`InMemoryRandomAccessStream` created for `IconInfo.FromStream` appears
to use internal referencing; disposing it would be incorrect. For that
reason I didn’t wrap it in a `using`. I’m not entirely sure whether GC
will handle this cleanly.

However, based on the implementation of `FromStream` itself and its
usage elsewhere (e.g., in `ThumbnailHelper`), this seems to be the
correct usage pattern, though I’m not entirely sure.

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`).

* Added developer documentation (`sparse-package.md`) and updated
documentation indexes to describe how to build, register, and consume
the sparse MSIX package.

**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`).

**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`).

1e3429dd3a Introduce worktree helper scripts for faster multi-branch development in PowerToys (#42076) 
<!-- 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 suite of helper scripts for managing
Git worktrees in the `tools/build` directory, along with comprehensive
documentation. The scripts streamline common workflows such as creating,
reusing, and deleting worktrees for feature branches, forks, and
issue-based development, making it easier for developers to work on
multiple changes in parallel without duplicating the repository. Each
script is provided as both a PowerShell (`.ps1`) and Windows batch
(`.cmd`) wrapper for convenience. A detailed markdown guide explains
usage patterns, scenarios, and best practices.

**New worktree management scripts:**

* Added `New-WorktreeFromFork.ps1`/`.cmd` to create a worktree from a
branch in a personal fork, handling remote creation and branch tracking
automatically.

* Added `New-WorktreeFromBranch.ps1`/`.cmd` to create or reuse a
worktree for an existing local or remote branch, with logic to fetch and
track branches as needed.

* Added `New-WorktreeFromIssue.ps1`/`.cmd` to create a new issue branch
from a base ref (default `origin/main`), slugifying the issue title for
branch naming.

* Added `Delete-Worktree.ps1`/`.cmd` to safely remove a worktree, with
options to force removal, keep the local branch, or retain orphan fork
remotes. Includes robust error handling and manual recovery guidance.

**Documentation:**

* Introduced `Wokrtree-Guidelines.md`, a comprehensive guide covering
the purpose, usage, flows, naming conventions, troubleshooting, and best
practices for the new worktree scripts.
