## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
**Build System & Configuration:**
- Updated `Cpp.Build.props` to use `v145` (VS 2026) as the default
`PlatformToolset`, with fall back to `v143` for VS 2022.
- Configured C++ Language Standard:
- `stdcpplatest` for production projects.
- Removed explicit `<PlatformToolset>` definitions from individual
project files (approx. 37 modules) to inherit correctly from the central
`Cpp.Build.props`.
**Code Refactoring & Fixes:**
- Updated `DrawingHelperTests.cs` in MouseJump Unit Test to ease the
pixel difference tolerance. This became an issue after switching to the
new VS2026 build agent.
<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
- Validated successful compilation of the entire solution. Similar
updates have been made to the .NET 10 branch, but these are much cleaner
and will be merged into that branch once fully confirmed working.

## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR (#43361) tries to fix the CI failure, and the root cause is
correct. However, using ;$(MSBuildThisFileDirectory)Generated Files
causes the include path to become \Generated Files\Generated
Files\resource.h. Removing Generated Files fixes the issue so that cl
can find the correct file.

## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR fixes an issue where context menu runtime registration wasn't
properly cleaned up when GPO (Group Policy Object) policies disabled the
module. The problem occurred because the module constructor didn't
consider GPO policies when determining its initial enabled state.

## Validation Steps Performed
This pull request refactors how context menu registration and
unregistration are handled across several PowerToys modules. The main
improvement is the introduction of a new `UpdateRegistration` helper
method in each module, which centralizes and simplifies the logic for
registering or unregistering context menus when the module is enabled or
disabled. This reduces code duplication and ensures consistent behavior.
**Context menu registration logic refactor:**
* Added a private `UpdateRegistration` method to each of the following
modules to handle context menu registration and unregistration based on
the enabled state:
- `FileLocksmithModule` in `PowerToysModule.cpp`
- `NewModule` in `powertoys_module.cpp`
- `ImageResizerModule` in `dllmain.cpp`
- `PowerRenameModule` in `dllmain.cpp`
* Replaced direct calls to registration/unregistration functions in
`enable`, `disable`, and `init_settings` methods with calls to the new
`UpdateRegistration` method in all affected modules, ensuring consistent
and centralized handling

## Summary of the Pull Request
## Root Cause
WiX-based registration creates persistent Shell Extension entries that:
1. Load DLLs even when the module is disabled
2. Cause cross-OS version conflicts (Win11 loading Win10 extensions)
## Changes Made
1. Removed static Shell Extension registration from PowerToys installer
2. Modified modules to register Shell Extensions during Runner startup
### Modified Modules:
- **PowerRename** (`src/modules/powerrename/dll/dllmain.cpp`)
- **NewPlus**
(`src/modules/NewPlus/NewShellExtensionContextMenu/powertoys_module.cpp`)
- **ImageResizer** (`src/modules/imageresizer/dll/dllmain.cpp`)
- **FileLocksmith**
(`src/modules/FileLocksmith/FileLocksmithExt/PowerToysModule.cpp`)
## Known Migration Issue
**Machine-level installer registry residue**: win10 with machine-level
installers may have residual Shell Extension registry entries that
persist with this change.

## AI Summary
This pull request refactors how shell extension registry keys are
managed during installation and uninstallation for several PowerToys
modules. The main change is moving registry key cleanup logic for
context menu shell extensions (ImageResizer, FileLocksmith, PowerRename,
NewPlus) from static installer definitions to new custom uninstall
actions, ensuring more reliable removal and future extensibility.
**Installer and Uninstall Refactoring**
* Added new custom actions (`CleanImageResizerRuntimeRegistryCA`,
`CleanFileLocksmithRuntimeRegistryCA`,
`CleanPowerRenameRuntimeRegistryCA`, `CleanNewPlusRuntimeRegistryCA`) to
programmatically clean up registry keys for each shell extension during
uninstall, implemented in `CustomAction.cpp` and exported in
`CustomAction.def`.

* Registered these custom actions in `Product.wxs` and ensured they run
before file removal during uninstall.

**Removal of Static Registry Key Definitions**
* Removed static registry key and component definitions for context menu
shell extensions from their respective installer `.wxs` files
(`FileLocksmith.wxs`, `ImageResizer.wxs`, `PowerRename.wxs`,
`NewPlus.wxs`), relying on custom actions for cleanup instead.

**Project File Update**
* Added `shell_ext_registration.h` to the solution file, possibly for
future shell extension registration logic.
These changes improve uninstall reliability and centralize registry
cleanup logic, making future maintenance and extension of shell
extension registration much simpler.

Windows Command Palette ("CmdPal") is the next iteration of PowerToys Run. With extensibility at its core, the Command Palette is your one-stop launcher to start _anything_.
By default, CmdPal is bound to <kbd>Win+Alt+Space</kbd>.
----
This brings the current preview version of CmdPal into the upstream PowerToys repo. There are still lots of bugs to work out, but it's reached the state we're ready to start sharing it with the world. From here, we can further collaborate with the community on the features that are important, and ensuring that we've got a most robust API to enable developers to build whatever extensions they want.
Most of the built-in PT Run modules have already been ported to CmdPal's extension API. Those include:
* Installed apps
* Shell commands
* File search (powered by the indexer)
* Windows Registry search
* Web search
* Windows Terminal Profiles
* Windows Services
* Windows settings
There are a couple new extensions built-in
* You can now search for packages on `winget` and install them right from the palette. This also powers searching for extensions for the palette
* The calculator has an entirely new implementation. This is currently less feature complete than the original PT Run one - we're looking forward to updating it to be more complete for future ingestion in Windows
* "Bookmarks" allow you to save shortcuts to files, folders, and webpages as top-level commands in the palette.
We've got a bunch of other samples too, in this repo and elsewhere
### PowerToys specific notes
CmdPal will eventually graduate out of PowerToys to live as its own application, which is why it's implemented just a little differently than most other modules. Enabling CmdPal will install its `msix` package.
The CI was minorly changed to support CmdPal version numbers independent of PowerToys itself. It doesn't make sense for us to start CmdPal at v0.90, and in the future, we want to be able to rev CmdPal independently of PT itself.
Closes#3200, closes#3600, closes#7770, closes#34273, closes#36471, closes#20976, closes#14495

TODOs et al
**Blocking:**
- [ ] Images and descriptions in Settings and OOBE need to be properly defined, as mentioned before
- [ ] Niels is on it
- [x] Doesn't start properly from PowerToys unless the fix PR is merged.
- https://github.com/zadjii-msft/PowerToys/pull/556 merged
- [x] I seem to lose focus a lot when I press on some limits, like between the search bar and the results.
- This is https://github.com/zadjii-msft/PowerToys/issues/427
- [x] Turned off an extension like Calculator and it was still working.
- Need to get rid of that toggle, it doesn't do anything currently
- [x] `ListViewModel.<FetchItems>` crash
- Pretty confident that was fixed in https://github.com/zadjii-msft/PowerToys/pull/553
**Not blocking / improvements:**
- Show the shortcut through settings, as mentioned before, or create a button that would open CmdPalette settings.
- When PowerToys starts, CmdPalette is always shown if enabled. That's weird when just starting PowerToys/ logging in to the computer with PowerToys auto-start activated. I think this should at least be a setting.
- Needing to double press a result for it to do the default action seems quirky. If one is already selected, I think just pressing should be enough for it to do the action.
- This is currently a setting, though we're thinking of changing the setting even more: https://github.com/zadjii-msft/PowerToys/issues/392
- There's no URI extension. Was surprised when typing a URL that it only proposed a web search.
- [x] There's no System commands extension. Was expecting to be able to quickly restart the computer by typing restart but it wasn't there.
- This is in PR https://github.com/zadjii-msft/PowerToys/pull/452

This upgrades to [v0.0.24](https://github.com/check-spelling/check-spelling/releases/tag/v0.0.24).
A number of GitHub APIs are being turned off shortly, so you need to upgrade or various uncertain outcomes will occur.
There's a new accessibility forbidden pattern:
> Do not use `(click) here` links

```
There are some minor bugs that I'm aware of and which I've fixed since this release, but I don't expect to make another release this month.
I've added a pair of patterns for includes and pragmas. My argument is that the **compiler** will _generally_ tell you if you've misspelled an include and the **linker** will _generally_ tell you if you misspell a lib.
- There's a caveat here: If your include case-insensitively matches the referenced file (but doesn't properly match it), then unless you either use a case-sensitive file system (as opposed to case-preserving) or beg clang to warn, you won't notice when you make this specific mistake -- this matters in that a couple of Windows headers (e.g. Unknwn.h) have particular case and repositories don't tend to consistently/properly write them.
