Ensured that the ZoomIt subproject compiles fine for 32 bit, this inside
the Sysinternals build process, also tested that the panoramic
screenshot functionality works. This change is isolated through the
preprocessor for AMD64 and ARM64.

c83dd972a0 Add ZoomIt panoramic screenshot functionality (#46506) 
<!-- 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 adds several ZoomIt features:

- Panorama / scrolling screenshots. The image reconstruction happens
based on visual cues and accuracy depends on scroll speed during the
capture.
- Text extraction when snipping.
- Break timer improvements (the break timer is now a screen saver,
offering the possibility to lock the computer).
- Functionality for standalone clip trimming is present but not exposed
in the XAML UI.

2cf7d0f5ec Fix for duplicated dockbands (#46438) 
<!-- 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

CommandProviderWrapper.PinDockBand had no duplicate check and it blindly
called .Add() on the settings list every time. This allowed the same
extension to be pinned multiple times to the dock. Once duplicates
existed in settings, LoadTopLevelCommands would faithfully re-create all
of them on every CommandsChanged reload, making edit-mode unpin appear
broken (unpin removes one, reload brings them all back).

 **Fix**
- CommandProviderWrapper.PinDockBand: Check all three band lists
(Start/Center/End) for an existing (ProviderId, CommandId) match before
adding; early-return if already pinned.
- CommandProviderWrapper.LoadTopLevelCommands: Track seen command IDs in
a HashSet when iterating AllPinnedCommands; skip duplicates so they
never materialize in the UI even if present in settings.

7cb0f3861a CmdPal: Fix duplicate "Pin to..." context commands on top-level items (#46458) 
Top-level commands on the home page showed duplicate pin context entries
— e.g., "Pin to Dock" appearing twice, or contradictory "Pin to Dock" +
"Unpin from dock" on the same command.

## Summary of the Pull Request

When the window is hidden while a sub-page is active,
`ShellViewModel.Receive(WindowHiddenMessage)` re-navigates to the root
page while `CurrentPage` still points to the sub-page.
`GetProviderContextForCommand` therefore returns the sub-page's
`ProviderContext` (which has `SupportsPinning = true`, `ProviderId =
<extension>`) for the new home-page `ListViewModel`.

With that wrong context, `UnsafeBuildAndInitMoreCommands` runs for each
`ListItemViewModel` wrapping a `TopLevelViewModel` and injects a second
set of pin commands — using the wrong provider's dock/top-level state —
on top of the ones `TopLevelViewModel.BuildContextMenu()` already
injected via `AddMoreCommandsToTopLevel` with the correct per-item
provider context.

**Changes:**

- **`ShellViewModel.cs` (root cause):** Move `isMainPage` evaluation
before `providerContext` is computed; use `CommandProviderContext.Empty`
when navigating to the root page, regardless of what `CurrentPage` is at
that moment.

  ```csharp
  var isMainPage = command == _rootPage;
  var providerContext = isMainPage
      ? CommandProviderContext.Empty
: _appHostService.GetProviderContextForCommand(message.Context,
CurrentPage.ProviderContext);
  ```

- **`CommandPaletteContextMenuFactory.cs` (defensive guard):** In
`UnsafeBuildAndInitMoreCommands`, bail early when the page context
supports pinning and `commandItem.Model.Unsafe is TopLevelViewModel`.
`BuildContextMenu()` on `TopLevelViewModel` already populates pin
commands via `AddMoreCommandsToTopLevel` with the item's own provider
context; adding them again here is always wrong regardless of how the
page context ended up. The `SupportsPinning` check is evaluated first to
skip the `.Unsafe` type-test in the common non-pinning case.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

The two fixes are complementary: the `ShellViewModel` change prevents
the wrong `ProviderContext` from ever reaching the home-page
`ListViewModel`; the `CommandPaletteContextMenuFactory` guard ensures
`TopLevelViewModel`-backed items are never double-processed even if some
other future code path sets the page context incorrectly.

The guard in
`CommandPaletteContextMenuFactory.UnsafeBuildAndInitMoreCommands` is
ordered so that `providerContext.SupportsPinning` (a cheap bool property
read) is evaluated before `commandItem.Model.Unsafe is
TopLevelViewModel`. This means the field access and type check are
skipped entirely for the common non-pinning case, addressing reviewer
feedback about unnecessary work on the hot path.

## Validation Steps Performed

Manually reproduced by opening CmdPal, navigating into a sub-page (e.g.,
"Search the Web"), closing the window, reopening, and verifying the
context menu for top-level commands shows exactly one "Pin to Dock" (or
"Unpin from dock") entry and at most one top-level pin action — no
duplicates or contradictory pairs.

1106ac61f5 CmdPal: Guard Frame.GoBack to prevent crash (#46493) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR adds a guard to the shell page that prevents navigating back
with empty nav stack (which leads to exception, an ultimately to a
crash).

> You should check that the
[CanGoBack](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-app-sdk/api/winrt/microsoft.ui.xaml.controls.frame.cangoback?view=windows-app-sdk-1.8#microsoft-ui-xaml-controls-frame-cangoback)
property is true before you call GoBack. If you call GoBack while
CanGoBack is false, an exception is thrown.

3f35b11cee CmdPal: Fix missing primary context command for late-bound items (#46131) 
This PR does fix a bug where an item that starts with a null or empty
primary command never adds that primary action to the context menu after
the extension later provides a real command.

- Creates the default primary context-menu item lazily when `Command` or
`Command.Name` becomes available after `SlowInitializeProperties()`
- Refreshes `AllCommands`, `SecondaryCommand`, and `HasMoreCommands`
notifications for late command materialization and Show Details updates.
- Adds unit tests to cover the fixed issue.

1a9fcdcd1f CmdPal: Ensure DockWindow property cleans up after itself (#46303) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR improves cleanup of DockWindow after itself (since it can be
created and destroyed multiple times during app lifetime).

- Disposes its ViewModel (which it creates).
- Unregisters itself explicitly from WeakReferenceMessenger.
- Ensures that ShellPage closes the dock window when disposed and can't
spawn more.

## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR prevents paging (<kbd>PgUp</kbd>/<kbd>PgDown</kbd>) in the item
list from selecting non-interactive items (such as separators or section
headers).

It adds `FindSelectableIndex` and `FindSelectableIndexForPageNavigation`
helper methods, which locate the next interactive item in the given
direction. These methods are used to guard paging navigation and to
consolidate related logic elsewhere.

84ce86c573 CmdPal: Fix missing app context menu actions on the main page (#46293) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR fixes missing _Pin to ..._ menu items on app search result.

`MainListPage` reuses `AppListItem` instances from the All Apps page,
but their context menus were being built with the main page provider
context instead of the All Apps provider context.

735ea01a93 CmdPal: Fix dock popup XamlRoot handling on DockControl (#46305) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR handles situations when app can crash because a popup control is
being touched before XamlRoot is set.

- Registers message handlers in DockControl only while controls are
loaded.
- Guards the edit-mode TeachingTip until the dock is rooted.
- Sets XamlRoot for dock flyouts and tooltips before showing.
- Ensures that tooltips in DockItemControl are set only after XamlRoot
is explicitly set.
- Unregisteres messages and CenterItems_CollectionChanged when unloaded.

93f80f5f61 CmdPal: Reduce DockWindow backdrop switching and visual artifacts (#46309) 
<!-- 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 reduces "blinking" of dock when (any) CmdPal settings changes.
It handles only backdrop, not icons.

- Avoids recreating the acrylic controller when the effective backdrop
parameters have not changed.
- Reuses the transparent backdrop instead of reassigning it during dock
refreshes.
- Cleans up backdrop controllers only when switching backdrop modes or
disposing the window.
- Removes obsolete dock-specific backdrop helper logic now handled
directly in DockWindow.

21f06b8bd0 Always On Top: The opacity should be able to configure the hotkey individually (#46410) 
<!-- 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 adds support for customizing the hotkeys used to
increase and decrease the opacity of pinned windows in the Always On Top
module.
Previously, these shortcuts were hardcoded to use the same modifiers as
the main pin hotkey.

With these changes, users can now independently configure the increase
and decrease opacity shortcuts via the settings UI, and the backend has
been updated to respect and store these new settings.

Another change: If window is not Always On Topped, the opacity change
take no effect, so we should not intercept, we should pass through to
minimize the impact.

cb9d54317a Add ItemsRepeater focus restoration on Extensions settings page (part deux) (#45903) 
<!-- 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

Fixes focus management in the Command Palette Extensions settings page.
After user moves through the extension list, when using Shift or
Shift+Tab to navigate into the extensions list, focus now properly
returns to the previously selected extension card instead of jumping to
the first item or end of the list.

This is part of the a11y bug batch.
User Impact:
Keyboard-only and assistive-technology users may lose context and
experience confusion due to unexpected focus movement, increasing
navigation effort and reducing usability of the Extensions page.

86115a54f6 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

User Impact:
Duplicate announcements can confuse users, increase cognitive load, and
slow down interaction for users relying on assistive technologies.

549b32e273 [Security][Hosts] Remove open method lookup and hardcode the notepad to open host editor (#46194) 
<!-- 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 is a security issue fix**

In Hosts Editor module, we support to open the hosts file through user's
default editor.
The way to find the editor is that we will read a registry key and use
the value as a parameter to call Process.Start.

In most case, it works well. But Hosts editor module will launch as
admin permission. But the registry value can be modified in user 's
permission (without UAC request).

So, the malware may change the registry value and if user click the open
button. May call the dangerous command which written in registry.

77173cd075 CmdPal: Stop dock window resizes from saving for normal window opens (#46118) 
Currently, if you resize a window opened from the dock (i.e. performance
monitor commands) then exit CmdPal, the resized "size" persists on
normal hotkey opens. This change tells CmdPal to revert the size when
opened and only save the size on normal window close.

Fixes #45591

0c2d24c3f6 PowerToys Extension: Use project build because we don't need packagereference (#46080) 
<!-- 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
At first version, tried to use the project reference instead of package
reference, while it did not work in my local environment, so used
package reference instead.

While planned to project reference for many reasons like first day
problem explosure in sdk, maintain the strict consistent winmd with the
extension host.

Hopefully to solve some of the extension not starting problem.

ed16ae7b2a Zoomit: Fix a issue that after trim, the video can't be saved and we can't start a new recording session (#46034) 
<!-- 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 bug was caused by a resource lifetime issue between the recording
phase and the save/trim phase. After a recording stopped,
StartRecordingAsync moved directly into the save workflow while it was
still holding the temporary recording stream and the active recording
session objects, later file operations in the save flow could fail
against that same file. Once that happened, ZoomIt could end up stuck in
a bad state where the first save did not complete cleanly and subsequent
recording attempts would no longer start until ZoomIt was restarted.

90131e35d9 CmdPal: Prevent unsynchornized access to More commands (#46020) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR fixes a crash caused by unsynchronized access to a context menu:

- Fixes `System.ArgumentException: Destination array was not long
enough` crash in `CommandItemViewModel.AllCommands` caused by
`List<T>.AddRange()` racing with background `BuildAndInitMoreCommands`
mutations
- Replaces mutable `List<T>` public surfaces with immutable array
snapshots protected by a `Lock`; writers hold the lock, mutate the
backing list, then atomically publish new snapshots via `volatile`
fields that readers access lock-free
- Applies the same snapshot pattern to `ContentPageViewModel`, using a
bundled `CommandSnapshot` object for atomic publication (since
`PrimaryCommand` drives command invocation there, not just UI hints)
- Narrows `IContextMenuContext.MoreCommands` and `AllCommands` from
`List<T>`/`IEnumerable<T>` to `IReadOnlyList<T>` to prevent consumers
from casting back and mutating
- Moves `SafeCleanup()` calls outside locks in cleanup paths to avoid
holding the lock during cross-process RPC calls

a130969d0a CmdPal: Fix selection desync when clearing search query (#45949) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

A single search-text change produces multiple ItemsUpdated callbacks. A
later soft update (ForceFirstItem=false) could overwrite the prior
force-first intent, restoring a stale sticky selection.

- Adds latched _forceFirstPending flag that survives across successive
ItemsUpdated passes until selection stabilizes or user navigates;
- Fixes scroll position on first-item reselection via UpdateLayout +
ScrollToItem + ResetScrollToTop in the deferred callback.

This PR removes the text data format from the data package attached to

75fb296bb2 Fix: Fix a issue that change always on top settings won't take effect immediately (#45994) 
<!-- 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
Fix #45993

Always on top have a window proc thread that will reload the settings
once file watcher trigger a reload of settings.
And always on top has a worker thread to read the settings at the same
time.
So it may happen worker thread will read the stale setting, as a result,
user change settings, and try to invoke always on top, as if nothing has
changed.
As the issue's recording shows.
