2c9a9e9fca CmdPal: Improve Command Palette behavior in "Last position" mode (#43543) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

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

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
I initially tried solving this by using a Regex on the card JSON to
replace all `Input.Toggle` elements with the new `ColumnSet` structure.
However, since `ToggleSetting.cs` already serves as a wrapper for
creating an Input.Toggle, I decided it was more effective to update the
declaration inside the `ToDictionary()` method directly.

### This is the result:

Refer to the title. Calling this here will just log an error. Another
HideWindow is at the end of the constructor, so the behavior remains

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

## Summary of the Pull Request

This change marks the System command provider as special, ensuring
fallback items are surfaced at the top of the list.

Additionally, the SystemCommandExtensionProvider ID has been updated to
comply with the new naming convention.

As a small cleanup, SystemCommandExtensionProvider is now sealed.

## 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.

957b653210 CmdPal: Add a micro global error handler (#41392) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR introduces a scaled-down version of the global error handler
from #41061.

- Catches and logs virtually all unhandled exceptions.
- For UI thread exceptions, generates an additional error report:
    - One copy is saved in app's log folder for the Bug Report Tool.
- Another copy can be placed to the user’s desktop to increase
visibility and encourage report submission (disabled for now).
- Displays a message box that tells the user where to find the saved
report.

This PR is intentionally minimal and focused. The complete, more
polished solution is still planned in #41061, which should replace this
implementation in a follow-up.

## Summary of the Pull Request

Added a new setting option to Command Palette that allows users to
choose whether the window should be recentered on every launch or
remember its last position. This enhancement improves user experience by
maintaining window positioning preferences across sessions.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

This PR adds a "Recenter window on launch" setting to Command Palette
with the following changes:

1. Added a new `RecenterWindow` property to `SettingsModel` (default is
true for backward compatibility)
2. Added corresponding property to `SettingsViewModel` for binding
3. Created a new `WindowPosition` class to track window position and
size
4. Modified `MainWindow.xaml.cs` to:
    - Track window position and size changes
    - Update position memory when window is modified or dismissed
    - Respect the recenter setting when showing the window
5. Added UI controls in the settings page with proper localization
strings

![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1c1db9f6-b23e-47c0-9a03-93906d4c9a42)



This feature allows users who prefer to have the Command Palette appear
in a specific screen location to maintain that preference, while others
can continue using the centered window behavior.

<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
1. Manually verified that with the setting enabled (default), the window
centers on launch
2. Verified that with the setting disabled, the window appears at its
last position

103429b4d7 CmdPal: Add hidden window as owner for tool windows (#42902) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR changes the method used to hide tool windows from the taskbar
and Alt+Tab to a more reliable approach.
Previously, this was achieved by adding `WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW` to an unowned
top-level window, which proved unreliable in several scenarios.

The new implementation assigns a hidden window as the owner of each tool
window.
This ensures that the window does not appear on the taskbar even when
the Windows setting
**Settings → System → Multitasking → On the taskbar, show all opened
windows** is set to **On all desktops**.

## Change log one-liner

Fixes Command Palette windows occasionally appearing on the taskbar
under certain system settings.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
Previously, the page up/down keys only performed any action while an
item in the list was focused. The page up/down keys did not have any
effect while the search box was focused, however the up/down arrows do
have effect. This PR enables the page up/down keys while the search box
is focused.

There is a caveat here. The page up/down behavior is not consistent. I
do not see a way to tell the ListView to perform its native page up/down
function. Instead, I manually calculate roughly which item to scroll-to.
Because of this, the amount of scroll between when the search box is
focused and when an item in the ListView is focused is not consistent.

e256e79685 CmdPal: Fix search box text selection in ShellPage.GoHome (#42937) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR fixes an issue where `ShellPage.GoHome` wouldn’t select the
search box text when the current page was already the home page.

In that case, the navigation stack was empty, and no code was executed
because focusing the text had been delegated to the `GoBack` operation.

## Change log one-liner

Ensured search text is selected when Go home when activated and
Highlight search on activate are both enabled.

6e5ad11bc3 CmdpPal: SearchBox visibility and async loading race (#42783) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR introduces two related fixes to improve the stability and
reliability of navigation and search UI behavior in the shell:

- **Ensure search box visibility is correctly updated**  
- `ShellViewModel` previously set `IsSearchBoxVisible` after navigation
to the page, but didn’t update it when the value changed. While the
value isn’t expected to change dynamically, the property initialization
is asynchronous, which could cause a race condition.
- As a defensive measure, this also changes the default value of
uninitialized property to make it visible by default.

- **Cancel asynchronous focus placement if navigation changes**  
- Ensures that any pending asynchronous focus operation is cancelled
when another navigation occurs before it completes.

82dc4cdc18 [CmdPal] Replace complex cancellation token mechanism with a simple task queue. (#42356) 
<!-- 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
Just consider user are trying to search a long name such as "Visual
Studio Code"
The old mechanism:
User input: V
Task: V
Then input: i
Task cancel for V and start task i
etc...

The problem is:
1. I don't think we can really cancel the most time-cost part (Find
packages from WinGet).
2. User cannot see anything before they really end the input and the
last task complete. UX exp is so bad.
3. It's so complex to maintain. Hard to understand for the new
contributor.

New mechanism:
User input: V
Task: V
Then input: i 
Prev Task is still running but mark the next task is i
Input: s
Prev Task is still running but override the next task to s
etc...

We can get:
1. User can see some results if prev task complete.
2. It's simple to understand
3. The extra time cost I think will not too much. Because we ignored the
middle input.

Compare:

## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR fixes the migration of bookmarks from versions prior to 0.95,
resolving an issue where hotkeys and aliases wouldn’t persist on
bookmarks created with Command Palette 0.94 or earlier.

It removes ID auto-fixing from `BookmarkData` in favor of an explicit
migration step handled by `BookmarkManager`.

## 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.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments


Actully, The `ThumbnailHelper` already contains code that converts an
`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.

ae6da3235b CmdPal: Cleanup warnings, part 1 (#42584) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR fixes several warnings in the Command Palette projects.


- _MSB4011_: `"Sdk.props" cannot be imported again. It was already
imported ...`
  - Removed the `Sdk` attribute from `CoreCommonProps.props`.

- _CsWinRT1028_ – “Class should be marked partial” on
*CsWin32*-generated classes.
- Since these classes cannot be made partial, a suppression attribute
has been added.
  - The `LocalKeyboardListener` type has been marked as partial.

- _Resource.resx_ – some strings had empty values.  
  - Updated the missing content.

- _WMC1506_ – *OneWay* bindings require at least one step to support
change notifications.
- In `SettingsWindow.xaml`, the breadcrumb binding was changed from
*OneWay* to *OneTime*, as `Crumb` does not support change notifications.

- _WMC0001_ – Unknown type in XML namespace
- In `SettingsWindow.xaml`, `FontWeight` was qualified with the CLR
namespace `Windows.UI.Text`.

## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR fixes logging entry. The invocation resembled a semantic logger
call, but its signature doesn’t match ManagedCommon.Logger. As a result,
it logged the placeholder text instead of the intended exception value:

55e974dea4 CmdPal: Fix FiltersViewModel binding (#42467) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR resolves crashes on pages with filters, such as Windows Terminal
profiles or Windows Services, when compiled with trimming/AOT.

It removes runtime binding from the FiltersDropDown control, effectively
preventing crashes caused by trimming/AOT dropping binding metadata for
FilterItemViewModel.

f4e9af9acb CmdPal: Windows Terminal extension failing when LOCALAPPDATA environment variable is missing (#42326) 
## Summary
Fixes an issue where the Command Palette Windows Terminal Profiles
extension throws an `ArgumentNullException` when the `LOCALAPPDATA`
environment variable is missing or corrupted.

## Problem
The extension uses `Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("LOCALAPPDATA")`
to locate Windows Terminal settings files. When this environment
variable is missing or corrupted (though rare), the method returns
`null`, which then causes `Path.Combine()` to throw an exception:

```
System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null. (Parameter 'paths')
   at System.IO.Path.Combine(ReadOnlySpan`1 paths)
   at Microsoft.CmdPal.Ext.WindowsTerminal.Helpers.TerminalQuery.GetTerminals()
```

## Solution
Replace `Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("LOCALAPPDATA")` with the
more robust
`Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.LocalApplicationData)`.
This API:
- Returns the correct path even when environment variables are corrupted
- Never returns `null` for standard special folders
- Is already used elsewhere in PowerToys (e.g.,
`Wox.Plugin.Constant.cs`)

## Changes
- Updated
`Microsoft.CmdPal.Ext.WindowsTerminal/Helpers/TerminalQuery.cs`

## Testing
The fix follows the existing pattern used in the codebase and directly
addresses the exception in the reported stack trace. While unlikely to
affect most users (environment variable corruption is rare), this makes
the extension more resilient to edge cases.

Fixes microsoft/PowerToys#42322

bb6f9a8b08 CmdPal: Add metadata to items in the clipboard history (#42188) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR introduces the `IClipboardMetadataProvider` interface, which
inspects clipboard items and returns metadata plus optional actions.

Also this implementation updates changes how `DetailsLink` link is
handled through shell, to enable `file:` scheme to be handled
(`Hyperlink.NavigateUri` and `HyperlinkButton.NavigateUri` explicitly
blocks `file:` scheme, see
[here](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-app-sdk/api/winrt/microsoft.ui.xaml.controls.hyperlinkbutton?view=windows-app-sdk-1.8)).

**Implemented providers:**
- `ImageMetadataProvider` — reports image dimensions, DPI, and byte
size.
- `TextFileSystemMetadataProvider` — recognizes text as a file-system
path and, if it exists, provides details about the target.
- `WebLinkMetadataProvider` — recognizes text as a URL and provides
link-related metadata.
- `TextMetadataProvider` — reports text statistics (e.g., character and
word counts).

05b605ef27 CmdPal: Cleanup content page view model when no longer needed (#42293) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR:

- Cleans up ContentPageViewModel when its page unloads to ensure it
unsubscribes from ItemsChanged.

- Clears the command bar before initializing a new page view model,
allowing the new VM to set its own state without being overridden by the
shell afterward.

97e62b3253 CmdPal: Update special fallbacks separately from the other fallbacks (#42289) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR introduces a hotfix that updates special fallback items
separately from the rest. This allows the loop handling special fallback
items to finish faster, ensuring they are not delayed by other fallback
items. As a result, calculator and run fallback items will be more
readily available to users.

This partially solves #42286 for special fallback items.

cd5b76c988 CmdPal: make the context menu search look more like a cmdpal (#42081) 
Replaces our styling with the same styleing we use for the search bar

But we can't _just_ do that, because the stupid "text cursors don't show
up on top of transparent backgrounds" thing.

So I just added the smoke backdrop to the search box. Seemed reasonable.

Screenshots below.

f55c49e15b CmdPal: adjust frecency weighting (#42242) 
In #41959 we changed the string matcher's weighting. It ended up giving
us lower scores than before.

That meant that the weighting from recent commands was far too heavy,
and it was polluting the results. Basically any command that you'd run
would be like, 30 characters of weight heavier than anything you
haven't.


This increases the weight of all string matches by 10x. That means
something like
`Command Prompt` will get a string matched weight of `100` instead of
`10`. This balances better with the weighting from frecency (where the
MRU command gets +35, then `+min(5*uses,35)`, for up to 70 points of
weight)

It also adds a bunch of tests here, to try and catch this again in the
future.

Closes #42158
