bcd1583bb7 [AOT] Refactor SettingsLib/SettingsUI for Native AOT compatibility (#42644)
<!-- 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

Key Changes:

1. Settings.UI.Library:
- Added SettingsSerializationContext.cs with comprehensive
JsonSerializable attributes for all settings types
- Updated BasePTModuleSettings.ToJsonString() to use AOT-compatible
serialization
- Updated SettingsUtils.GetFile<T>() to use AOT-compatible
deserialization
- Modified all ToString() methods in Properties classes to use
SettingsSerializationContext
- Converted struct fields to properties in SunTimes and
MouseWithoutBordersProperties for serialization compatibility

2. Settings.UI:
- Fixed namespace alias in SourceGenerationContextContext.cs to avoid
conflicts

For any future developers who discover incorrect settings resolution,
please follow up my changes to add your setting type into
JsonSerilizerContext.

9160c82fc2 Update Command Palette's Learn More string to be consistent with other utilities (#43898)
<!-- 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

In the PowerToys "What's new" window, every utility has the text "Learn
more about <utility name>" next to the "Settings" button. Examples
below:

<img width="247" height="38" alt="learnmore-fancyzones"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/fecdeb4b-e01c-438d-8d11-c056e613768e"
/>
<img width="258" height="40" alt="learnmore-textextractor"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ffb0c801-5b89-46d1-b493-b57287303e65"
/>

The only exception is the Command Palette utility which just says "Learn
more".

<img width="152" height="32" alt="learnmore-cmdpal"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/232c11cd-b621-46eb-87f1-d3fc708d6286"
/>

This is an inconsistency and this PR fixes that string.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

### User-Facing Fixes

#### 1. Module list glitching when toggling enabled state
When enabling or disabling a module from the "Utilities" list, the
entire list would flicker and redraw, causing other toggles to glitch.
This made it appear as if multiple modules were being affected by a
single change.

**Root cause**
The `AllModules` ObservableCollection was being completely cleared and
re-populated on every change, forcing the UI to destroy and recreate all
list items.

**Fix**
Refactored collection updates to modify items in-place:
- Introduced `_moduleItems` master list, built once during
initialization.
- `RefreshModuleList()` now updates properties without clearing
collections
- `SortModuleList()` uses `ObservableCollection.Move()` instead of
`Clear()`/`Add()`

#### 2. Incorrect sort menu checkmark behaviour
The checkmark in the "Sort by" menu would not update correctly when
changing sort order, sometimes showing the incorrect item checked, or
even both at once.

**Root cause**
The `IsChecked` prop on the `ToggleMenuFlyoutItem` is bound to
`DashboardSortOrder`, but the binding was not updating because the
ViewModel didn't raise a property change notification when the sort
order was changed.

**Fix**
Added `OnPropertyChanged(nameof(DashboardSortOrder))` in
`SortModuleList()`.

### Code quality improvements

1. Renamed `GetShortcutModules()` to `RefreshShortcutModules()`. The
original name implied a getter, but the routine actually affects state
by rebuilding the shortcut and action lists, violating the Command-Query
Separation principle.
2. Added an `_isUpdatingFromUI` flag as a defensive measure against
circular updates when a UI toggle is changed.
3. Separation of concerns for operations on the modules list. Building,
sorting and refreshing it are separated.
4. Added comments and XML doc headers for new methods. Included brief
description of GPO locking behaviour.

<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
- Verified that toggling modules in the list no longer causes the list
to flicker or for other toggles to glitch.
- Confirmed that the sort order checkmarks update correctly and reflect
the current sort order.
- Tested GPO policy settings are still queried as before.
- Checked sort behaviour is unaffected.

2593149d22 Fix OOBE Mouse Utilities crash by correcting localization key (#43664)
<!-- 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

- The OOBE Mouse Utilities page crashed when selected because the
TextBlock with x:Uid="Oobe_MouseUtils_MousePointerCrosshairs" tried to
bind a Description property that doesn’t exist.
- Updated Resources.resw so the string entry is named
Oobe_MouseUtils_MousePointerCrosshairs_Description.Text, matching the
markdown description control instead of the TextBlock.
- With the correct resource key, the XAML loader no longer resolves an
invalid property and navigation succeeds.

42ebf8d992 Fix AP system prompt textbox display issue (#43486)
<!-- 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 pull request refactors how the system prompt is managed and
displayed in the Advanced Paste settings UI. The main improvements
center around normalizing the system prompt value, ensuring placeholder
prompts are handled consistently, and updating the logic for switching
between advanced and simple AI modes. These changes help prevent
placeholder text from being mistakenly saved as a custom system prompt
and improve maintainability.

**System prompt normalization and placeholder handling:**

* Added static normalization for both `AdvancedAISystemPrompt` and
`SimpleAISystemPrompt`, and introduced logic to clear the system prompt
if it matches a placeholder value. This prevents default placeholder
text from being persisted as a custom prompt.
[[1]](diffhunk://#diff-14126907329c7fcd49dd33bab32283296c7dd68ddc3902163a482a3b3ce58d36R39-R40)
[[2]](diffhunk://#diff-14126907329c7fcd49dd33bab32283296c7dd68ddc3902163a482a3b3ce58d36R942-R982)
* Refactored event handlers to use the new normalization logic and
updated the placeholder switching mechanism when toggling between
advanced and simple AI modes.
* Ensured system prompt normalization is applied when saving provider
configuration, further enforcing consistent prompt handling.

**UI improvements:**

* Removed hard-coded placeholder text from the XAML, ensuring that the
placeholder is now dynamically set based on the current mode and
normalized prompt value.
* Updated the logic for setting the system prompt textbox placeholder to
use the new normalization and mode detection methods, improving clarity
and reducing potential user confusion.

2a40e1ce4d Minor ZoomIt fixes (#43495)
## Summary of the Pull Request
Regarding #43265 / #43266, I noticed some minor spelling mistakes. I
also refactored some literal strings to string constants.

I didn't discuss this with core contributors or @MarioHewardt. Just a
quick shot-from-the-hip PR ;-) I hope that isn't a problem...

_Note: this is a new Pull Request for this change. I had to close the
previous one (#43443), because I had made a commit using a wrong Github
account._

<!-- 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 pull request introduces a robust migration system for legacy
Advanced Paste AI provider settings and credentials, refactoring both
the migration logic and credential handling to be more maintainable and
reliable. It also standardizes the default model names for AI providers
and updates related UI placeholders to reflect these changes. The
migration logic is now centralized in a new helper class, and legacy
credential migration is handled more cleanly in both the settings and
view model layers.

bb604d87ca Fix accessibility: Associate controls with labels for screen readers (#42439)
## Problem

Input controls (ComboBoxes, ToggleSwitches, NumberBoxes) within
SettingsCards throughout the PowerToys Settings UI were not
programmatically associated with their visible labels. This caused
screen readers to announce only the control type (e.g., "combo box",
"toggle switch") without any context about the control's purpose, making
the settings inaccessible to screen reader users.

This violates WCAG 2.2 Success Criterion 1.3.1 (Info and Relationships)
- Level A requirement.

**User Impact**: Screen reader users navigating PowerToys settings would
hear only "edit text" or "combo box" with no description, making it
difficult or impossible to configure settings independently.

## Solution

Added `AutomationProperties.Name` bindings to controls, linking them to
their parent SettingsCard's `Header` property. This establishes the
programmatic relationship between labels and controls required by
assistive technologies.

### Pattern Applied

For controls inside SettingsCards with a `Name` attribute:

```xaml
<tkcontrols:SettingsCard Name="LanguageHeader" x:Uid="LanguageHeader">
    <ComboBox
        MinWidth="{StaticResource SettingActionControlMinWidth}"
        AutomationProperties.Name="{Binding ElementName=LanguageHeader, Path=Header}"
        DisplayMemberPath="Language"
        ItemsSource="{Binding Languages, Mode=TwoWay}"
        SelectedIndex="{Binding LanguagesIndex, Mode=TwoWay}" />
</tkcontrols:SettingsCard>
```

For data templates where headers are data-bound:

```xaml
<DataTemplate x:Key="ComboBoxTemplate" x:DataType="viewModels:PluginAdditionalOptionViewModel">
    <tkcontrols:SettingsCard Header="{x:Bind Path=DisplayLabel}">
        <ComboBox
            AutomationProperties.Name="{x:Bind Path=DisplayLabel}"
            ItemsSource="{x:Bind Path=ComboBoxItems}" />
    </tkcontrols:SettingsCard>
</DataTemplate>
```

## Changes Made

### GeneralPage.xaml (7 controls)
- Language selection ComboBox
- Color mode/theme ComboBox
- Run at startup ToggleSwitch
- Show system tray icon ToggleSwitch
- Enable experimentation ToggleSwitch
- Enable data diagnostics ToggleSwitch
- Enable view diagnostic data ToggleSwitch

### PowerLauncherPage.xaml (4 data templates)
- ComboBoxTemplate - for plugin settings
- NumberBoxTemplate - for plugin numeric settings
- CheckBoxComboBoxTemplate - for conditional ComboBox settings
- CheckBoxNumberBoxTemplate - for conditional NumberBox settings

### PowerRenamePage.xaml (6 controls)
- Enable PowerRename ToggleSwitch
- Context menu mode ComboBox
- Enable auto-complete ToggleSwitch
- Max display list number NumberBox
- Restore flags on launch ToggleSwitch
- Use Boost library ToggleSwitch

### NewPlusPage.xaml (4 controls)
- Enable New+ ToggleSwitch
- Hide file extension ToggleSwitch
- Hide starting digits ToggleSwitch
- Replace variables ToggleSwitch

## Testing

Screen readers (Windows Narrator) now properly announce controls with
context:
- **Before**: "Combo box"
- **After**: "Language, Combo box"

No functional changes to application behavior. The fix only affects how
controls are announced to assistive technologies.

## Notes

This fix follows the existing pattern already used in
ColorPickerPage.xaml. Similar issues exist in approximately 23 other
Settings pages which can be addressed in future PRs using this
established pattern. The pages fixed in this PR represent
commonly-accessed settings and demonstrate the solution approach for
comprehensive coverage.

Closes #<issue_number>

4a5e476a4e Fix: Add accessible name to Shortcut Conflicts button for screen readers (#42441)
## Summary
Fixes the accessibility issue where the "Shortcut Conflicts" button in
the Dashboard page has no accessible name defined, causing screen
readers to announce it as just "button" instead of providing context
about its purpose.

## Problem
The button in `ShortcutConflictControl.xaml` lacked an
`AutomationProperties.Name` attribute, violating WCAG 2.2 guidelines
(4.1.2 - Name, Role, Value). This prevented users who rely on screen
readers from determining the function of the button, making it
impossible to resolve or view shortcut conflicts.

**Before fix:**
- Screen reader announces: "button" 

**After fix:**
- Screen reader announces: "Shortcut conflicts, No conflicts found,
button" 
- Or: "Shortcut conflicts, 1 conflict found, button" 
- Or: "Shortcut conflicts, 3 conflicts found, button" 

## Solution
Added a new `AccessibleName` property to
`ShortcutConflictControl.xaml.cs` that combines:
- The static localized title: "Shortcut conflicts"
- The dynamic status text: "No conflicts found", "1 conflict found", or
"X conflicts found"

The button's `AutomationProperties.Name` is now bound to this property
using `{x:Bind AccessibleName, Mode=OneWay}`, ensuring it updates
dynamically as conflict data changes.

## Changes
- **ShortcutConflictControl.xaml**: Added `AutomationProperties.Name`
binding to the button
- **ShortcutConflictControl.xaml.cs**: Added `AccessibleName` property
and property change notification

## Impact
- Provides full context to assistive technology users about the button's
purpose and current state
- Complies with WCAG 2.2 accessibility standards
- Follows existing patterns in the codebase for accessible controls
- Minimal changes (2 files, 14 lines added)

## Related Issue
Closes #issue_number

## Testing
- [x] Code review completed with no issues
- [x] Follows existing accessibility patterns used in DashboardPage.xaml
- [x] Uses existing localized resource strings
- [x] Property updates dynamically via INotifyPropertyChanged

e7de5c7b8d Make update notification InfoBar clickable in Flyout (#42064)
## Summary

Resolves #38854 by making the "Update available" InfoBar in the tray
icon flyout clickable, providing direct navigation to the General
settings page where users can manage updates.

## Problem

When PowerToys has an available update, users experience unnecessary
navigation friction:

1. Click PowerToys tray icon → flyout opens with "Update available"
InfoBar
2. InfoBar is not clickable, only the settings wheel is interactive
3. Click settings wheel → opens Dashboard page (not where updates are
managed)
4. Navigate to General page → finally access update controls

Users requested making the "Update available" text itself a hyperlink
for direct access to update functionality.

## Solution

Made the InfoBar interactive by adding a `Tapped` event handler that:
- Hides the flyout (consistent with other flyout actions)
- Opens Settings window directly to the General page using
`App.OpenSettingsWindow(typeof(GeneralPage))`

## Changes

**Files Modified:**
- `src/settings-ui/Settings.UI/SettingsXAML/Flyout/LaunchPage.xaml`:
Added `Tapped="UpdateInfoBar_Tapped"` event
- `src/settings-ui/Settings.UI/SettingsXAML/Flyout/LaunchPage.xaml.cs`:
Added event handler and navigation logic

## User Experience

**Before:** Tray Icon → Flyout → Settings Wheel → Dashboard → Navigate
to General → Update Controls
**After:** Tray Icon → Flyout → **Click "Update available"** → General
Page → Update Controls

The InfoBar now behaves as a clickable hyperlink as requested, while
preserving all existing functionality. Users can still use the settings
wheel if preferred, but now have a more direct path to update
management.

## Testing

The implementation follows existing patterns in the codebase and uses
established APIs. The InfoBar only appears when updates are in
`ReadyToInstall` or `ReadyToDownload` states, ensuring the navigation is
contextually appropriate.

## 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.

@yeelam-gordon When running the runner, I do see the settings value is
being updated. But when running the runner again the setting doesn't
seem to be saved? Is that because of a bug in my implementation, or am I
testing it wrong :)?

94b5bc62de Fix title bar overlapping issue (#43022)
<!-- 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 pull request introduces a small UI improvement to the
`ShellPage.xaml` file. The change sets a breakpoint for the compact
state of the title bar, which will help the interface adapt better to
different window sizes.

* UI responsiveness: Added `CompactStateBreakpoint="900"` to the
`AppTitleBar` control in `ShellPage.xaml` to improve layout adaptation
for smaller window widths.

7b9d5af8c1 fixed light switch shortcut not working issue (#42340)
<!-- 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 pull request refactors how the `ToggleThemeHotkey` property is
handled in the LightSwitch settings and view model. The changes simplify
property management by directly referencing the property within
`LightSwitchProperties` and ensure that the hotkey setting is
consistently updated and serialized.

**Settings property management:**

* In `LightSwitchSettings.Clone()`, the `LightSwitchProperties` object
now directly references the existing property instances instead of
creating new ones, and also includes the `ToggleThemeHotkey` property.

**View model property handling:**

* In `LightSwitchViewModel.ToggleThemeActivationShortcut`, the getter
and setter now directly access and update
`ModuleSettings.Properties.ToggleThemeHotkey.Value`, removing the need
for a backing field and ensuring changes are properly serialized and
notified.
