3f5418132d [CmdPal] Fix context menu command items (#45499)
maintainers: we talked about this at length on Teams

> Seems like adding `IExtendedAttributesProvider` onto `CommandItem` is
what broke this. I don't know why. I'm not gonna pretend to understand
the cswinrt voodoo that's causing it to pick `IEAP` as the leaf
interface instead of `ICommandContextItem`.

49cc504d94 CmdPal: Improve fuzzy matcher Unicode and emoji robustness (#45275)
## Summary of the Pull Request

Add comprehensive unit tests for emoji, ZWJ sequences, skin tone
modifiers, and UTF-16 edge cases (unpaired surrogates, combining marks,
random garbage). Update matcher logic to skip normalization of lone
surrogates, preventing errors with malformed Unicode. Expand comparison
test data to cover emoji scenarios. Adds regression guards for diacritic
handling and surrogate processing.

Fixes #45246 introduced in #44809.

## Summary of the Pull Request
Release pipeline is keeping failed, and local build failed at ut.

This pull request introduces changes to improve how test projects are
handled during release builds, ensuring that test code is not compiled
or analyzed when not needed - in doing release build, to - succeed the
execution and reduce built time.

And, to upgrade from VS17 to VS18 in cmdpal sdk build, this is to keep
consistency with all other build step

4694e99477 CmdPal: Upgrade FuzzyStringMatcher in the Command Palette Extensions SDK (#44809)
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR upgrades the `FuzzyStringMatcher` used in the Command Palette
Extensions SDK with a focus on performance, memory efficiency, and
improved matching behavior, while preserving compatibility with the
existing API. This PR is a backwards compatible alternative to
precomputed fuzzy matcher introduces in another PR.

The new implementation is designed as a drop-in replacement. Any
behavioral differences are intentional and primarily related to improved
diacritic handling, scoring consistency, and correctness of highlight
positions.

Changes:
- Keeps the existing public API intact and preserves behavior in nearly
all cases.
- Enables diacritics-insensitive matching by default, improving results
across accented and non-English languages.
- Significantly improves performance, with measured speedups in the
range of ~5–20 times, depending on scenario and input size.
- Reduces heap allocations to near zero by using stack allocation and
pooled buffers instead of large per-match DP arrays.
- Simplifies and optimizes matching logic:
  - Folds the haystack only once per match.
  - Uses rolling DP buffers instead of `O(query × target)` tables.
- Replaces large match tables with a compact bitset when tracking
highlight positions.
- Improves consistency and correctness:
  - Normalizes path separators (`\` → `/`) during folding.
- Avoids returning highlight positions for PinYin-only matches where no
1:1 mapping exists.
- Introduces unit tests, including comparison tests against the legacy
implementation to validate compatibility.

## 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.

be90b587da CmdPal: Update Extension SDK classes to raise property change notifications only on change (#44547)
## 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.

Note: The issue proposes linking directly to “Command Palette /
Developer Docs / Extensibility overview” on
Learn. I noticed the project often uses fwlink/aka.ms redirects instead
of direct Learn URLs. If creating a
redirect is preferred (or if I can create one), let me know and I’ll
update the links accordingly.

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.

## Summary of the Pull Request

This pull request modernizes NuGet package management for the
`Microsoft.CommandPalette.Extensions` native project by migrating from
the older `packages.config` approach to the newer `PackageReference`
style. It also updates the related project references and output
handling in the toolkit project. These changes simplify dependency
management and align with current best practices for native C++/WinRT
projects.

**NuGet package management modernization:**

* Migrated `Microsoft.CommandPalette.Extensions.vcxproj` from
`packages.config` to `PackageReference` style, specifying dependencies

73786cd2be CmdPal: Add drag & drop support (#44165)
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR adds basic drag-and-drop support for items in list and grid
views.

It introduces two new properties on `ListItem`, backed by
`IExtendedAttributesProvider`: `DataPackage` and `DataPackageView`.
These properties are mutually exclusive.
`DataPackage` serves as a convenience property allowing the item to
retain the underlying object without risk of losing it. Across the
extension boundary, only the immutable `DataPackageView` snapshot is
transferred. When `DataPackage` is set, `DataPackageView` is derived
from it.

This PR includes initial concrete drag-and-drop implementations for:
- File Indexer  
- Clipboard History  

**Todo / Missing pieces** 
- [x] Extend `DataPackage` support to top-level command items, enabling
scenarios such as index fallback ~
- [x] Provide automatic drag-and-drop for unconfigured list items (e.g.,
copying title and subtitle as text)
- [x] Keep CmdPal open
- [ ] ~Clipboard commands (since we have the DataPackage...)~
- [ ] ~Improve logging~

## Pictures? Moving ones!

## 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.

I've completed a rough implementation of pinyin support, but since I'm
currently unsure where to add the toggle for pinyin support, this
feature is enabled by default for now.

## 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:

466a94eb40 CmdPal: Fix updating primary command and context menu and app icons (#42155)
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR fixes three issues in one go:
- Restores missing icons in app context menus.
- Fixes propagation of changes from a command item to the context menu
item for the primary action.
- Ensures the context menus stay in sync when underlying command items
change.

Details:
- Correctly propagates updates of name, icon, and subtitle from a
command item to its primary command
(`CommandItemViewModel._defaultCommandContextItemViewModel`).
- Correctly propagate updates of command's name to title
(`CommandItem.ctor`).
- Fixes icon loading for application items: `AppCommand` no longer loads
an app icon by default but instead relies on the caller to provide one
(since `AppListItem` also handles icon loading).
- Adds a generic fallback icon for apps when an icon cannot be loaded.
- Updates bindings on context menu items to `OneWay`, ensuring the UI
properly reflects item changes.
- Adds a sample that showcases dynamically updated commands (with cats
and dolphins!) to _Samples → List Page Sample Command_.

⚠️ Toolkit changes:
- `CommandItem` won't capture assigned Command's name as its `Title`.
This will allow it to propagate future changes to `Command.Name`.

Pictures? Moving ones!

b6944b432c CmdPal: Allow any image format as icon for protocol bookmarks (#42145)
## Summary of the Pull Request

This change attempts to load any supported image format as a protocol
bookmark icon, instead of restricting it to PNG only. The original
implementation handled only PNG (which are common), but the manifest
also supports JPG/JPEG extensions.

55f0bcc441 CmdPal: Make Bookmarks Great and Fast Again (#41961)
## Summary of the Pull Request


This PR improves recognition and classification of bookmarks, allowing
CmdPal to recognize almost anything sensible a user can throw at
it—while being forgiving of common input issues (such as unquoted spaces
in paths, etc.).

Extended classification and exploration of edge cases also revealed
limitations in the current implementation, which reloaded all bookmarks
on every change. This caused visible UI lag and could lead to issues
like unintentionally adding the same bookmark multiple times.

### tl;dr

More details below

- Introduces `BookmarkManager` (async saves, thread-safe, immutable,
unique IDs, separate persistence).
- Adds `BookmarkResolver` (classification, Shell-like path/exe
resolution, better icons).
- `BookmarkListItem` now refreshes independently; Name is optional
(Shell fallback).
- Uses Shell API for user-friendly names and paths.  
- Adds `IIconLocator`, protocol icon support, Steam custom icon,
fallback icons and improved `FaviconLoader` (handles redirects). Every
bookmark should now have icon, so we have consistent UI without gaps.
- Refactors placeholders (`IPlaceholderParser`), adds tests, restricts
names to `[a-zA-Z0-9_-]`, excludes GUIDs.
- Reorganizes structure, syncs icons/key chords with AllApps/Indexer.  
- For web and protocol bookmarks URL-encodes placeholder values
- **Performance:** avoids full reloads, improves scalability, reduces UI
lag.
- **Breaking change:** stricter placeholder rules, bookmark command ids.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

### Changes

- **Bookmark Manager**  
  - Introduces a `BookmarkManager` class that:  
    - Holds bookmarks in memory and saves changes asynchronously.  
    - Is safe to operate from multiple threads.  
    - Uses immutable data for transport.  
    - Separates the **persistence model** from in-memory data.  
    - Assigns explicit unique IDs to bookmarks.  
- These IDs also serve as stable top-level command identifiers, enabling
aliases and shortcuts to be bound reliably.

- **Bookmark Resolver**  
- Determines the type of a bookmark (`CommandKind`: file, web link,
command, etc.).
  - Detects its target and parameters.  
- Returns a `Classification` object containing all information needed to
present the bookmark to the user (icon, primary command, context menu
actions, etc.).
- For unquoted local paths, attempts to find the *longest viable
matching path* to a file or executable, automatically handling spaces in
paths (e.g., `C:\Program Files`).
- The resolution of executables from the command line now more closely
matches **Windows Shell** behavior.
    - Users are more likely to get the correct result.  
    - Icons can be determined more reliably.  

- **Bookmark List Items**  
- Each top-level bookmark item (`BookmarkListItem`) is now responsible
for presenting itself.
  - Items refresh their state independently on load or after changes.  
  - The **Name** field is now optional.  
- If no explicit name is provided, a user-friendly fallback name is
computed automatically using the Shell API.
- Context actions are now more in line with **All Apps** and **Indexer**
built-in extensions, matching items, icons, and shortcuts (still a work
in progress).

- **Shell API Integration**  
- Uses the Shell API to provide friendly names and paths for shell or
file system items, keeping the UI aligned with the OS.

- **Protocol and Icon Support**  
  - Adds `IIconLocator` and protocol icon support.  
- Provides a custom icon for **Steam**, since Steam registers its
protocol to an executable not on the path (and the Steam protocol is
expected to be a common case).
  - Adds `FaviconLoader` for web links.  
- Can now follow redirects and retrieve the favicon even if the server
takes the request on a “sightseeing tour.”
- Provides **Fluent Segoe fallback icons** that match the bookmark
classification when no specific icon is available.

- **Refactors and Reorganization**  
  - Extracts `IPlaceholderParser` for testability and reusability.  
- Renames `Bookmarks` → `BookmarksData` to prevent naming collisions.
  - Reorganizes the structure (reducing root-level file clutter).  
  - Synchronizes icons and key chords with AllApps/Indexer.  
- Refactors placeholder parsing logic and **adds tests** to improve
reliability.

- **Misc**
- Correctly URL-encodes placeholder values in Web URL or protocol
bookmarks.

---

### Performance Improvements

- Eliminates full reloads of all bookmarks on every change.  
- Improves scalability when working with a large number of bookmarks.  
- Independent refresh of list items reduces UI lag and improves
responsiveness.
- Asynchronous persistence prevents blocking the UI thread on saves.  

---

### Breaking Changes

- **Placeholders**  
- Placeholder names are now restricted to letters (`a–z`, `A–Z`), digits
(`0–9`), uderscore (`_`), hyphen (`-`).
- GUIDs are explicitly excluded as valid placeholders to prevent
collisions with shell IDs.
- When presented to the user, placeholders are considered
case-insensitive.
- ** Bookmark Top-Level Command
- **Bookmark Top-Level Command**  
  - IDs for bookmark commands are now based on a unique identifier.  
  - This breaks existing bindings to shortcuts and aliases.  
- Newly created bindings will be stable regardless of changes to the
bookmark (name, address, or having placeholders).

08dc3fbcef CmdPal: Fix desynced resmanager files (#42038)
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR fixes desynced resource manager files introduced by previous
commits.
While Visual Studio would regenerate and correct these files
automatically, applying this fix preemptively reduces unnecessary churn
in unrelated commits and avoids redundant file changes.

2e0fe16128 CmdPal: Move core projects into Core/ (#41358)
Couple little things here:

* Makes `Microsoft.CmdPal.Common` a `Core` project
* Moves the `CmdPal.Core` projects into a single `Core/` directory
* Adds the `CoreLogger` which I had stashed in
https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/compare/dev/migrie/40113/extension-hosts-try-2...dev/migrie/b/remove-core-managedcommon-dep
a while back
* De-duplicates a bunch of commands that were in both Apps and Common
* moves all the commands into the toolkit, instead of in the Common
project

d07f40eec3 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.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
Dependency and SDK upgrades:

* Upgraded `Microsoft.WindowsAppSDK` and related packages (Base,
Foundation, WinUI, Runtime, DWrite, InteractiveExperiences, Widgets, AI)
to version 1.8.x in all relevant project files, including
`Directory.Packages.props`, `.vcxproj`, `.csproj`, and `packages.config`
files. This also involved updating import paths and error checks for the
new package structure.

Build and packaging improvements:

* Enhanced the MSIX package selection logic in the build pipeline
(`job-build-project.yml`) to prioritize platform-specific packages
(x64/arm64) and provide clearer logging and error handling when no
packages are found.
* Modified `Microsoft.CmdPal.UI.csproj` to disable Appx bundling and set
a specific test directory for Appx packages during CI builds, improving
build output organization.

These updates help ensure the project stays current with the latest SDKs
and improves reliability and transparency in the build process.

5747e5e537 CmdPal: Prevent crash on duplicate keybindings; simplify matching (#41714)
## Summary of the Pull Request

Handles duplicate keybindings by using the first occurrence and ignoring
the rest (in `ContextMenuViewModel.Keybindings` and
`IContextMenuContext.Keybindings`).

Replaces LINQ with direct iteration for clarity.

Simplifies `CheckKeybinding` by removing redundant null checks and
clarifying the key-to-binding matching logic, improving both readability
and efficiency.

Add a new method to `KeyChordHelpers.FormatForDebug` that formats
KeyChord as string to help debugging.

Makes `KeyChordHelpers` class a static class.

1887c22e87 CmdPal: Did someone say grid pages? (#40832)
Closes #38269

Still working on this one, but essentially allows a list page to become
a grid page by specifying a `GridProperties` property like so:

```C#
public AllAppsPage()
{
    PlaceholderText = Resources.search_installed_apps_placeholder;
    GridProperties = new MediumGridLayout();
}
```

> This is a very early version and very subject to change. Much to
clean, but feedback & suggestions are welcome.

is c++, so it needs both ARM and x64

Technically I'm not sure there's anything of real value in just
`.Extensions`, since that project is just there to build the winmd (we
don't have any runtimeclasses), so not having the symbols for that
shouldn't be the end of the world

69dc1d5e18 CmdPal: Filters for DynamicListPage? Yes, please. (#40783)
Closes: #40382

## To-do list

- [x] Add support for "single-select" filters to DynamicListPage
- [x] Filters can contain icons
- [x] Filter list can contain separators
- [x] Update Windows Services built-in extension to support filtering by
all, started, stopped, and pending services
- [x] Update SampleExtension dynamic list sample to filter.

## Example of filters in use

```C#
internal sealed partial class ServicesListPage : DynamicListPage
{
    public ServicesListPage()
    {
        Icon = Icons.ServicesIcon;
        Name = "Windows Services";

        var filters = new ServiceFilters();
        filters.PropChanged += Filters_PropChanged;
        Filters = filters;
    }

    private void Filters_PropChanged(object sender, IPropChangedEventArgs args) => RaiseItemsChanged();

    public override void UpdateSearchText(string oldSearch, string newSearch) => RaiseItemsChanged();

    public override IListItem[] GetItems()
    {
       // ServiceHelper.Search knows how to filter based on the CurrentFilterIds provided
        var items = ServiceHelper.Search(SearchText, Filters.CurrentFilterIds).ToArray();

        return items;
    }
}

public partial class ServiceFilters : Filters
{
    public ServiceFilters()
    {
        // This would be a default selection. Not providing this will cause the filter
        // control to display the "Filter" placeholder text.
        CurrentFilterIds = ["all"];
    }

    public override IFilterItem[] GetFilters()
    {
        return [
            new Filter() { Id = "all", Name = "All Services" },
            new Separator(),
            new Filter() { Id = "running", Name = "Running", Icon = Icons.GreenCircleIcon },
            new Filter() { Id = "stopped", Name = "Stopped", Icon = Icons.RedCircleIcon },
            new Filter() { Id = "paused", Name = "Paused", Icon = Icons.PauseIcon },
        ];
    }
}
```

e0a0bbffe5 CmdPal: Prevent some SearchText bouncing. (#41165)
This stops us from raising a PropChanged(SearchText) in DynamicListPage
when we're the ones to set it.

When we'd raise the PropChanged in response to a `set`, it could cause a
race between CmdPal and the extension. It was totally possible that
CmdPal could call

```
SearchText="foo";
SearchText="fool";
```

and in the extension, we'd raise the PropChanged for each of those, but
then have CmdPal handle those events out-of-order.

This seems to entirely remove all the "jiggling" that I'd notice in the
evil samples from #41158

Closes #38190

ce4d8dc11e CmdPal: Clean up ListItemViewModels when we no longer need them (#41169)
_We already fixed one leak, yes, but what about second leak?_

We already clean up `ListItemViewModel`s for a page when the page is
navigated away from. However, if the page updates it's items, we would
never actually `Cleanup` the old items. We'd just lose them, and never
unregister their event handlers. The objects would just leak forever.

This builds on the work in #41166, to do two things:
* Cleanup items that were removed from our list, when we actually update
`Items`. This involved a change to `Toolkit.ListHelpers`, to let us know
which items were removed from the list during `InPlaceUpdateList`
* Cleanup items that are thrown out when we cancel a FetchItems. Those
items were constructed, and might have registered event handlers, even
if we never actually put them into `Items`.

_Targets #41166_

Closes #39837

Tested with the evil sample from #41158, and loading thousands and
thousands of items no longer causes us to leak memory like we're
Deepwater Horizon.

6acb793184 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
};
```

3a0487f74a cmdpal: Add "file" context items to the run items too (#40768)
After #39955, the "exe" items from the shell commands only ever have the
"Run{as admin, as other user}" commands. This adds the rest of the
"file" commands - copy path, open in explorer, etc.

This shuffles around some commands into the toolkit and common commands
project to make this easier.

6dc2d14e13 CmdPal: A different approach to bookmarking scripts, exes (try 2) (#40758)
_⚠️ targets #40427_ 

This is a different approach to #39059 that I was thinking about like a
month ago. It builds on the work from the rejuv'd run page (#39955) to
process the bookmark as an exe/path/url automatically.

I need to cross-check this with #39059 - I haven't cached that back in
since I got back from leave. I remember thinking that I wanted to try
this approach, but wasn't sure if it was right. More than anything, I
want to get it off my local PC and out for discussion

* We don't need to manually store the type anymore. 
* breaking change: paths with a space do need to be wrapped in spaces

cfa5f75862 CmdPal: Add settings to control which fallbacks are enabled (#40505)
This adds settings to each provider to allow us to control if individual
fallback items are enabled or not, regardless of the provider being
enabled.

This is relevant to _all the threads where disabling fallback commands
came up_

This just adds another section to each provider's settings page, with a
list of the fallback commands.

This also has nothing to do with the "top-level apps search", which is
not really a fallback command - it's its own thing.

Ref #38288. Doesn't close that, because this only controls
enable/disable, not ranking.

From here, we should be able to add a dedicated page in the SUI that
shows all the fallbacks across all providers. That's where we'll enable
the ordering.

100fca4468 CmdPal: Refactoring ContextMenu adding separators, IsCritical styling, and right-click context menus for list items (#40189)
Refactored ContextMenu into it's own control to allow displaying in
CommandBar and in response to right click on list items.

- Adds "critical" styling to context menu items flagged as `IsCritical`.
This will use the theme to style with correct color.
- Added `SeparatorContextItem` and modified `MoreCommands` to allow for
both `CommandContextItem`s and `SeparatorContextItem`s.
- Right clicking a list item with a context menu will open the context
menu at the position of the click and position the filter box at the top
of the context menu.

bf16e10baf Updates for check-spelling v0.0.25 (#40386)
## Summary of the Pull Request

- #39572 updated check-spelling but ignored:
   > 🐣 Breaking Changes
[Code Scanning action requires a Code Scanning
Ruleset](https://github.com/check-spelling/check-spelling/wiki/Breaking-Change:-Code-Scanning-action-requires-a-Code-Scanning-Ruleset)
If you use SARIF reporting, then instead of the workflow yielding an 
when it fails, it will rely on [github-advanced-security
🤖](https://github.com/apps/github-advanced-security) to report the
failure. You will need to adjust your checks for PRs.

This means that check-spelling hasn't been properly doing its job 😦.

I'm sorry, I should have pushed a thing to this repo earlier,...

Anyway, as with most refreshes, this comes with a number of fixes, some
are fixes for typos that snuck in before the 0.0.25 upgrade, some are
for things that snuck in after, some are based on new rules in
spell-check-this, and some are hand written patterns based on running
through this repository a few times.

About the 🐣 **breaking change**: someone needs to create a ruleset for
this repository (see [Code Scanning action requires a Code Scanning
Ruleset: Sample ruleset

](https://github.com/check-spelling/check-spelling/wiki/Breaking-Change:-Code-Scanning-action-requires-a-Code-Scanning-Ruleset#sample-ruleset)).

The alternative to adding a ruleset is to change the condition to not
use sarif for this repository. In general, I think the github
integration from sarif is prettier/more helpful, so I think that it's
the better choice.

You can see an example of it working in:
- https://github.com/check-spelling-sandbox/PowerToys/pull/23
