CmdPal: Extract persistence services from SettingsModel and AppStateModel (#46312)
## Summary of the Pull Request Extracts persistence (load/save) logic from `SettingsModel` and `AppStateModel` into dedicated service classes, following the single-responsibility principle. Consumers now interact with `ISettingsService` and `IAppStateService` instead of receiving raw model objects through DI. **New services introduced:** - `IPersistenceService` / `PersistenceService` — generic `Load<T>` / `Save<T>` with AOT-compatible `JsonTypeInfo<T>`, ensures target directory exists before writing - `ISettingsService` / `SettingsService` — loads settings on construction, runs migrations, exposes `Settings` property and `SettingsChanged` event - `IAppStateService` / `AppStateService` — loads state on construction, exposes `State` property and `StateChanged` event **Key changes:** - `SettingsModel` and `AppStateModel` are now pure data models — all file I/O, migration, and directory management removed - Raw `SettingsModel` and `AppStateModel` removed from DI container; consumers receive the appropriate service - `IApplicationInfoService.ConfigDirectory` injected into services for config path resolution (no more hardcoded `Utilities.BaseSettingsPath`) - ~30 consumer files updated across `Microsoft.CmdPal.UI.ViewModels` and `Microsoft.CmdPal.UI` projects - All `#pragma warning disable SA1300` suppressions removed — convenience accessors replaced with direct `_settingsService.Settings` / `_appStateService.State` access - Namespace prefixes (`Services.ISettingsService`) replaced with proper `using` directives ## PR Checklist - [ ] **Communication:** I've discussed this with core contributors already. - [x] **Tests:** Added/updated and all pass - [ ] **Localization:** N/A — no end-user-facing strings changed - [ ] **Dev docs:** N/A — internal refactor, no public API changes - [ ] **New binaries:** N/A — no new binaries introduced ## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments ### Architecture Services are registered as singletons in `App.xaml.cs`: ```csharp services.AddSingleton<IPersistenceService, PersistenceService>(); services.AddSingleton<ISettingsService, SettingsService>(); services.AddSingleton<IAppStateService, AppStateService>(); ``` `PersistenceService.Save<T>` writes the serialized model directly to disk, creating the target directory if it doesn't exist. It also does not attempt to merge existing and new settings/state. `SettingsService` runs hotkey migrations on load and raises `SettingsChanged` after saves. `AppStateService` always raises `StateChanged` after saves. ### Files changed (41 files, +1169/−660) | Area | Files | What changed | |------|-------|-------------| | New services | `Services/IPersistenceService.cs`, `PersistenceService.cs`, `ISettingsService.cs`, `SettingsService.cs`, `IAppStateService.cs`, `AppStateService.cs` | New service interfaces and implementations | | Models | `SettingsModel.cs`, `AppStateModel.cs` | Stripped to pure data bags | | DI | `App.xaml.cs` | Service registration, removed raw model DI | | ViewModels | 12 files | Constructor injection of services | | UI | 10 files | Service injection replacing model access | | Settings | `DockSettings.cs` | `Colors.Transparent` replaced with struct literal to avoid WinUI3 COM dependency | | Tests | `PersistenceServiceTests.cs`, `SettingsServiceTests.cs`, `AppStateServiceTests.cs` | 38 unit tests covering all three services | | Config | `.gitignore` | Added `.squad/`, `.github/agents/` exclusions | ## Validation Steps Performed - Built `Microsoft.CmdPal.UI` with MSBuild (x64/Debug) — exit code 0, clean build - Ran 38 unit tests via `vstest.console.exe` — all passing - Verified no remaining `#pragma warning disable SA1300` blocks - Verified no remaining `Services.` namespace prefixes --------- Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> |

CmdPal: Replace FiltersDropDown ComboBox with searchable dropdown (#45747)
## Summary of the Pull Request Replaces the ComboBox-based filter control with a DropDownButton and Flyout containing a searchable TextBox and ListView. - Add type-to-search: typing while button is focused opens the flyout and filters items by name - Designed to match appearance of the context menu - Add keyboard navigation: `Up`/`Down `moves selection from search box, `Enter` confirms, `Escape` clears search text (or closes if empty), `F4` opens the dropdown - Add `Alt+F` shortcut on ShellPage to toggle filter focus - Style flyout to match ContextMenu (item padding, separators, search box appearance) - Show "No results" empty state when search matches nothing - After confirming selection, return focus to the main search box - Add accessibility - Update `FilterTemplateSelector` to support both ComboBoxItem and ListViewItem containers - Guard against infinite loop in navigation when only separators exist ## Pictures?

CmdPal: Fix window restore when the window is not WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW (#45877)
## Summary of the Pull Request This PR checks the window’s actual extended style before saving the current window size so the offset is calculated correctly. The API used can return coordinates in different coordinate spaces depending on whether the window has the `WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW` extended style. This makes sense in case that settings `WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW` fails, or is not applied (when debugger is attached). > https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/winuser/ns-winuser-windowplacement > If the window is a top-level window that does not have the WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW window style, then the coordinates represented by the following members are in workspace coordinates: ptMinPos |

CmdPal: Add a dock (#45824)
Add support for a "dock" window in CmdPal. The dock is a toolbar powered by the `APPBAR` APIs. This gives you a persistent region to display commands for quick shortcuts or glanceable widgets. The dock can be pinned to any side of the screen. The dock can be independently styled with any of the theming controls cmdpal already has The dock has three "regions" to pin to - the "start", the "center", and the "end". Elements on the dock are grouped as "bands", which contains a set of "items". Each "band" is one atomic unit. For example, the Media Player extension produces 4 items, but one _band_. The dock has only one size (for now) The dock will only appear on your primary display (for now) This PR includes support for pinning arbitrary top-level commands to the dock - however, we're planning on replacing that with a more universal ability to pin any command to the dock or top level. (see #45191). This is at least usable for now. This is definitely still _even more preview_ than usual PowerToys features, but it's more than usable. I'd love to get it out there and start collecting feedback on where to improve next. I'll probably add a follow-up issue for tracking the remaining bugs & nits. closes #45201 --------- Co-authored-by: Niels Laute <niels.laute@live.nl> |

CmdPal: Fixes and improve main window positioning (#45585)
## Summary of the Pull Request This PR improves main window positioning: - Fixes cases where an invalid window size or position was saved. - `UpdateWindowPositionInMemory` failed to capture correct values when the window was minimized or maximized (for example, a minimized window reports coordinates like `(-32000, -32000)`). - Improves repositioning logic to use relative anchors (corners and center). When switching displays, the window should reappear in the expected position. This also reduces cases that trigger the failsafe recentering. - Fixes the dragging rectangle size after switching DPIs - the rectangle was not adapting, so it when switching from 100 % to 200 % it covered only left half of the window and had teeny-tiny height. - Suppresses system DPI handling during summon to prevent double scaling. - Makes `WindowPosition` class immutable. - Adds light-weight failsafe preventing overwriting position with invalid data. - Hotfixes a min/max state conflict with the WinUIEx window manager. <!-- Please review the items on the PR checklist before submitting--> ## PR Checklist - [x] Closes: #45576 <!-- - [ ] Closes: #yyy (add separate lines for additional resolved issues) --> - [ ] **Communication:** I've discussed this with core contributors already.

CmdPal: Icon cache (#44538)
## Summary of the Pull Request This PR implements actual cache in IconCacheService and adds some fixes on top for free. The good - `IconCacheService` now caches decoded icons - Ensures that UI thread is not starved by loading icons by limiting number of threads that can load icons at any given time - `IconCacheService` decodes bitmaps directly to the required size to reduce memory usage - `IconBox` now reacts to theme, DPI scale, and size changes immediately - Introduced `AdaptiveCache` with time-based decay to improve icon reuse - Updated `IconCacheProvider` and `IconCacheService` to handle multiple icon sizes and scale-aware caching - Added priority-based decoding in `IconCacheService` for more responsive loading - Extended `IconPathConverter` to support target icon sizes - Switched hero images in `ShellPage` to use the jumbo icon cache - Made `MainWindow` title bar logic resilient to a null `XamlRoot` - Fixed Tag icon positioning - Removes custom `TypedEventHandlerExtensions` in favor of `CommunityToolkit.WinUI.Deferred`. The bad - Since IconData lacks a unique identity, when it includes a stream, it relies on simple reference equality, acknowledging that it might not be stable. We might cache some obsolete garbage because of this, but it is fast and better than nothing at all. Yet another task for the future me. <!-- Please review the items on the PR checklist before submitting--> ## PR Checklist - [ ] Closes: - [ ] Closes: #38284 - [ ] Related to: #44407 - [ ] Related to: https://github.com/zadjii-msft/PowerToys/issues/333 - [ ] **Communication:** I've discussed this with core contributors already.

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. <!-- Please review the items on the PR checklist before submitting--> ## PR Checklist - [x] Closes: #44641 <!-- - [ ] Closes: #yyy (add separate lines for additional resolved issues) --> - [ ] **Communication:** I've discussed this with core contributors already.

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.

CmdPal: Fix grid views (#43991)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR fixes the crash due to binding to a trimmed property. For this
it converts runtime bindings on GridView to use `{x:Bind}` so this issue
can't happen in the future.
- Fixes a crash related to the `Visibility` property in gallery/grid
views when trimmed during AOT builds.
- Fixes ShowTitle and ShowSubtitle properties, they are now taken into
account in a view.
- Improves UI layout, removes some margins and maches the corner radius
of the item contaienr with the item content in the gallery view.
- Refactores gallery and grid views to move logic from the view to the
view model so we can x:Bind to them.
- Replaces `{Binding}` with `{x:Bind}` to improve performance and enable
compile-time binding validation.
- Properties related to grids are splatted on to the common
`IGridPropertiesViewModel` interface. Subclassing would add extra
overhead without substential benefit.
- Adds new samples to showcase various grid view configurations.

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?

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. <details><summary>Report example</summary> <pre> This is an error report generated by Windows Command Palette.

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. <!-- Please review the items on the PR checklist before submitting--> ## PR Checklist - [x] Closes: #42395 - [x] **Communication:** I've discussed this with core contributors already.

CmdPal: Hide search box on content pages [experiment] (#41479)
## Summary of the Pull Request CmdPal now displays the search box only on pages that derive from ListPage. On ContentPage (forms, etc.), the search box is hidden. - Moves keyboard shortcut handling from SearchBox to ShellPage so shortcuts are always handled. - Keeps the search box hidden/disabled to preserve layout metrics. - Refines focus management to prevent focus jumps during navigation. - For ContentPage page's content gains focus automatically (not just form inputs, but now markdown content as well - so you can scroll immediately, for example). - Adds accessibility (a11y) tweaks: when navigating to content pages without a visible search box, sets an explicit focus target so screen readers announce a meaningful element. Screen reader will now announce navigation to the page. - Adds a title to the main list page - "Home". https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/f60d0826-df1f-468e-8e41-0266cd27878b <!-- Please review the items on the PR checklist before submitting--> ## PR Checklist - [x] Closes: #38967 - [ ] **Communication:** I've discussed this with core contributors already.

CmdPal: Enable loading local images in MarkdownContent (#41754)
Add a new image provider for `MarkdownTextBlock` that allows loading
images from additional sources:
- **file scheme**
- Enables loading images using the `file:` scheme.
- Intentionally restricts file URIs to absolute paths to ensure correct
resolution when passed through the CmdPal extension/host boundary. (In
most cases, 3rd-party extensions will provide the paths, but the CmdPal
host performs the actual loading and would otherwise resolve paths
relative to itself.)
- **data scheme**
- Enables loading images from URIs with the `data:` scheme (both Base64
and URL-encoded forms).
- Note: the Markdown control itself cannot handle large input and may
hang before the code introduced in this PR is invoked.
- **ms-appx scheme**
- This scheme is now supported for loading images.
- However, since the Command Palette host performs the loading,
`ms-appx:` resolution applies to the host and not the extensions, which
limits its usefulness.
- **ms-appdata scheme**
- This scheme is now supported for loading images.
- Similar to `ms-appx:`, resolution applies to the host, not the
extensions, limiting its usefulness.
---
Additionally, this PR introduces the concept of **_image source
hints_**, implemented as query string parameters piggy-backed on the
original URI.
These hints allow users to influence the behavior of images within
Markdown content.
- `--x-cmdpal-fit`
- `none`: no automatic scaling, provides image as is (default)
- `fit`: scale to fit the available space
- `--x-cmdpal-upscale`
- `true`: allow upscaling
- `false`: downscale only (default)
- `--x-cmdpal-width`: desired width in pixels
- `--x-cmdpal-height`: desired height in pixels
- `--x-cmdpal-maxwidth`: max width in pixels
- `--x-cmdpal-maxheight`: max height in pixels
---
Since `MarkdownTextBlock` requires conforming to the `IImageProvider`
interface—which accepts only a raw URI and must return an `Image`
control—this PR also introduces a new class `RtbInlineImageFactory`.
The factory hooks into the root text block upon loading and listens for
events related to **layout** and **DPI changes**, ensuring that images
adapt correctly to the control’s environment.
```csharp
public interface IImageProvider
{
Task<Image> GetImage(string url);
bool ShouldUseThisProvider(string url);
}
```

CmdPal go brrrr (performance improvements) (#41959)
Still a WIP, but here's the deets so far: ## No more throwing canceled tokens Throwing exceptions is expensive and since we essentially cancel tokens anytime someone is typing beyond the debounce, we could be throwing exceptions a ton during search. Since we don't care about those past executions, now they just `return`. ## Reduced number of apps returned in search While users can specify how many apps (no limit, 1, 5), if they specify no limit, we hard limit it at 10. For a few reasons, fuzzy search gets _really_ fuzzy sometimes and gives answers that users would think is just plain wrong and they make the response list longer than it needs to be. ## Fuzzy search: still fuzzy, but faster Replaced `StringMatcher` class with `FuzzyStringMatcher`. `FuzzyStringMatcher` is a C# port by @zadjii-msft of the Rust port by @lhecker for [microsoft/edit](https://github.com/microsoft/edit), which I believe originally came from [VS Code](https://github.com/microsoft/vscode). It's a whole fuzzy rabbit hole. But it's faster than the `StringMatcher` class it replaced. ## Fallbacks, you need to fall back "In the beginning, fallbacks were created. This had made many people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move." Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy jokes aside, fallbacks are one cause of slower search results. A few modifications have been made to get them out of the way without reverting their ability to do things dynamically. 1. Fallbacks are no longer scored and will always* appear at the bottom of the search results 2. In updating their search text, we now use a cancellation token to stop processing previous searches when a new keypress is recorded. ## * But Calculator & Run are special So, remember when I said that all fallbacks will not be ranked and always display at the bottom of the results? Surprise, some will be ranked and displayed based on that score. Specifically, Calculator and Run are fallbacks that are whitelisted from the restrictions mentioned above. They will continue to act as they do today. We do have the ability to add future fallbacks to that whitelist as well. --- ## Current preview Updated: 2025-09-24 https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/c74c9a8e-e438-4101-840b-1408d2acaefd --- Closes #39763 Closes #39239 Closes #39948 Closes #38594 Closes #40330 |

CmdPal: Make Command Palette's main and toast windows tool windows (#41835)
## Summary of the Pull Request Replaces the `SetVisibilityInSwitchers` method with `WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW` style, removing reliance on the fragile `IsShownInSwitchers` property. Explicitly overrides window corner preference so tool windows keep the same rounded corners as regular app windows (tool windows otherwise default to a smaller corner radius, which would change the look). Benefits: - Avoids use of the unreliable `IsShownInSwitchers` property, which has multiple known failure cases. - Allows window managers to correctly treat Command Palette as a popup window rather than a normal app window, preventing unwanted tiling, grid placement, or similar behaviors. This better matches the intended design of CmdPal as an overlay UI. <!-- Please review the items on the PR checklist before submitting--> ## PR Checklist - [x] Closes: #41772 - [x] Closes: #41593 - [ ] **Communication:** I've discussed this with core contributors already.

CmdPal: Null pattern matching based on is expression rather than overridable operators (#40972)
What the title says. 😄
Rather than relying on the potentially overloaded `!=` or `==` operators
when checking for null, now we'll use the `is` expression (possibly
combined with the `not` operator) to ensure correct checking. Probably
overkill for many of these classes, but decided to err on the side of
consistency. Would matter more on classes that may be inherited or
extended.
Using `is` and `is not` will provide us a guarantee that no
user-overloaded equality operators (`==`/`!=`) is invoked when a
`expression is null` is evaluated.
In code form, changed all instances of:
```c#
something != null
something == null
```
to:
```c#
something is not null
something is null
```
The one exception was checking null on a `KeyChord`. `KeyChord` is a
struct which is never null so VS will raise an error when trying this
versus just providing a warning when using `keyChord != null`. In
reality, we shouldn't do this check because it can't ever be null. In
the case of a `KeyChord` it **would** be a `KeyChord` equivalent to:
```c#
KeyChord keyChord = new ()
{
Modifiers = 0,
Vkey = 0,
ScanCode = 0
};
```

CmdPal: Handle exceptions when enqueuing callbacks to UI thread in IconCacheService (#40716)
## Summary of the Pull Request Handle exceptions thrown in TryEnqueue callbacks so they don’t crash the app (as they cannot be caught by the global exception handler). Any exceptions are now returned to the caller for handling. Additionally, a failure to enqueue the operation onto the dispatcher will also result in an exception. This is not a breaking change, as exceptions only propagate within the class and do not affect external callers.

Create a Microsoft.CmdPal.Core.ViewModels project (#40560)
_targets #40504_ Major refactoring for #40113 This moves a large swath of the codebase to a `.Core` project. "Core" doesn't have any explicit dependencies on "extensions", settings or the current `MainListPage`. It's just a filterable list of stuff. This should let us make this component a bit more reusable. This is half of a PR. As I did this, I noticed a particular bit of code for TopLevelVViewModels and CommandPaletteHost that was _very rough_. Solving it in this PR would make "move everything to a new project" much harder to review. So I'm submitting two PRs simultaneously, so we can see the changes separately, then merge together. |

Ensure Command Palette main window remains hidden on taskbar Windows Explorer restarts (#40406)
## Summary of the Pull Request Ensures the Command Palette main window stays hidden from the taskbar after Windows Explorer restarts. Also updates how app switcher visibility is managed to prevent unhandled exceptions and avoid startup crashes when Explorer is not running or is not responsive. ## PR Checklist - [x] Closes: #40334 - [x] **Communication:** I've discussed this with core contributors already.

Add the Command Palette module (#37908)
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

- [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
