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!

## 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.

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.

## 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.

## 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)

## Summary of the Pull Request
This pull request introduces a small but important improvement to the
user experience in the `AllAppsViewModel`. Now, when a module's enabled
status is changed in the UI, the flyout menu items are immediately
re-sorted to reflect the new state.

## 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.
<img width="1494" height="530" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3d8dbe8c-4d21-46bc-9c10-f6d26161787f"
/>
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.

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

## 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.

## Summary of the Pull Request
This pull request updates the resource file inclusion pattern in the
`PowerToys.QuickAccess.csproj` project file to support localization for
multiple languages.
Localization improvements:
* Changed the `PRIResource` include path to recursively include all
`Resources.resw` files from subdirectories, enabling support for
multiple language resource files instead of just `en-us`.

## 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.

## 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.

## Validation Steps Performed
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR introduces a new method
`bool SetProperty<T>(ref T field, T value, [CallerMemberName] string?
propertyName = null)`
on `BaseObservable`.
The method updates the backing field only when the new value differs
from the current one and raises property change notifications only in
that case.
#### Summary
- Adds `SetProperty<T>` to `BaseObservable` to guard property change
notifications behind an actual value change.
- SDK API is not affected.
- Prevents unnecessary notifications from leaving the extension
boundary.
- Reduces redundant updates and saves a few round-trips between COM
objects and view models.
- Improves overall efficiency without changing observable behavior for
consumers.

Title: Docs: consolidate Copilot instructions and prompt metadata
## Summary
- Consolidated AI guidance into a root AGENTS.md and new
`.github/instructions` files, removing older per-folder instructions.
- Scoped instruction files for pipelines, common libraries,
runner/settings UI, prompts, and simplified
`.github/copilot-instructions.md` to point to the sources of truth.
- Fixed prompt frontmatter (YAML markers, quoted fields, headings)
across built-in prompt files.
- Most instructions.md is from https://github.com/github/awesome-copilot
## Testing
- Not run (documentation/instructions-only change)

## Summary of the Pull Request
This pull request introduces updates to the build pipeline and resource
configuration, primarily to support new modules and improve versioning
information for the File Locksmith CLI.
**Pipeline configuration updates:**
* Added new WinUI3 application binaries (`PowerToys.QuickAccess.dll`,
`PowerToys.QuickAccess.exe`, and `PowerToys.Settings.UI.Controls.dll`)
to the ESRP signing pipeline, ensuring these modules are properly signed
during the build process.
**Resource and versioning improvements:**
* Updated the resource file for `FileLocksmithCLI` to include version
information and metadata (such as company name, file description, and
product version) by referencing the shared version header. This improves
traceability and consistency of version details in the executable.
