## Summary
Follow-up fix for #47177. Installs `CommandPalette.Extensions.winmd` to
the `WinUI3Apps\` directory (ExternalLocation) instead of the root
install folder.
## Problem
PR #47177 moved the sparse package's `ExternalLocation` from root to
`WinUI3Apps\`, but the `CommandPalette.Extensions.winmd` was still
installed to root via `DirectoryRef=INSTALLFOLDER`. The WinRT runtime
needs this winmd in the ExternalLocation directory for COM proxy/stub
creation during cross-process CmdPal extension activation. Without it,
`CoCreateInstance` returns `E_NOINTERFACE` and the PowerToys extension
fails to load in Command Palette.
## Fix
Split the `BaseApplications.wxs` `DirectoryRef` into two blocks:
- **winmd component** -> `WinUI3AppsInstallFolder` (for WinRT COM
marshalling)
- **auto-generated components** -> `INSTALLFOLDER` (unchanged, avoids
ICE30 conflict with `WinUI3ApplicationsFiles`)
## Validation
- [x] Local WiX compilation: no ICE30 errors
- [x] ADO CI build 145429943 (v0.99.1): passed
- [x] Manual verification on 25H2: CmdPal loads 55 commands after winmd
placed in WinUI3Apps

Add reentrancy guard for FilteredItems ObservableCollection mutations.
WinUI3's native XAML renderer can pump the message loop while processing
a CollectionChanged notification from InPlaceUpdateList. This allows a
second DoOnUiThread task to begin mutating FilteredItems while the first
is still mid-update, causing heap corruption and an access violation
(0xc0000005) in ntdll.dll.
The fix introduces RunFilteredItemsUpdate() which uses a boolean flag to
detect same-thread reentrancy (C# lock is reentrant so _listLock cannot
prevent this). When reentrancy is detected, only the latest pending
update is stored and executed after the in-flight mutation completes,
ensuring the UI converges to the newest state without overlapping
mutations.
Fixes: 100% reproducible crash in CmdPal when typing any character in
the search box (build ID 145015494).

The merge from main added a PowerDisplay.Models project reference to
Settings.UI.Library, but the old duplicate model classes (CustomVcpValueMapping
and ColorPresetItem) in Settings.UI.Library/Models/ were not removed, causing
CS0104 ambiguous reference errors. Additionally, two files had stale using
aliases and a XAML DataTemplate referenced the old namespace.
Changes:
- Delete Settings.UI.Library/Models/CustomVcpValueMapping.cs (duplicate)
- Delete Settings.UI.Library/Models/ColorPresetItem.cs (duplicate)
- Update PowerDisplayPage.xaml.cs and PowerDisplayViewModel.cs using directives
- Update PowerDisplayPage.xaml x:DataType to use pdmodels namespace
Verified with local build of both Settings.UI and PowerDisplay projects.

Addresses code review feedback on the KBM manual key selection feature.
No new user-facing behavior; all changes are correctness, robustness,
and maintainability fixes.
## Summary of the Pull Request
- **Localization:** All hard-coded `RemappingDialog.Title` assignments
replaced with `ResourceHelper.GetString()`; added
`RemappingDialog_TitleEdit` resource key
- **VK_DISABLED centralization:** Replaced scattered `0x100`/`"256"`
literals and local `const string vkDisabledCode` with `private const int
VkDisabled = 0x100` / `private const string VkDisabledString = "256"` on
`MainPage`
- **Disable action validation:** Added
`ValidationHelper.ValidateDisableMapping()` — same trigger-key rules as
other action types (empty keys, modifier-only, illegal shortcuts,
duplicates, conflicting modifier variants); wired into
`ValidateMapping()` switch
- **Binding-safe dropdown revert:** `TriggerKeyDropDown_KeyChanged` /
`ActionKeyDropDown_KeyChanged` no longer set `dropDown.KeyName =
e.OldKeyName` on failure (breaks `{Binding}` expression); now use
`RevertKeySelection(keys, index)` which does
`ObservableCollection.RemoveAt` + `Insert` to force a binding-tracked
refresh without touching the DP directly. `NewKeyCode == 0` ("None") is
rejected via the same path
- **Dropdown validation:** `ValidateDropDownSelection` skips
`string.IsNullOrEmpty` placeholder slots (added by
`HandleAutoGrowShrink`) when checking repeated-modifier and max-size
rules
- **`SetActionType`:** Replaced hard-coded `SelectedIndex` with
tag-matching iteration over `ActionTypeComboBox.Items`; immune to XAML
item reorder
- **`ServiceStatusHelper`:** Dispose all `Process` objects returned by
`GetProcessesByName` before returning; prevents handle accumulation on
the 3-second polling timer
- **`KeyDropDownButton.GetKeyList()`:** Filter out `KeyCode == 0`
entries (native "None" sentinel for shortcut lists) before caching
- **`SettingsManager`:** `_mappingService!` used consistently in
`CreateSettingsFromKeyboardManagerService`
- **`KeyboardHookHelper`:** Constructor catch broadened from
`DllNotFoundException or InvalidOperationException` to `Exception`

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
The `RevertKeySelection` pattern: in WinUI, assigning directly to a
bound `DependencyProperty` overwrites the binding expression. Using
`ObservableCollection.RemoveAt` + `Insert` instead raises
`CollectionChanged(Replace)`, causing the binding to re-read from the
source without clearing the expression.
```csharp
private static void RevertKeySelection(ObservableCollection<string> keys, int index)
{
string current = keys[index];
keys.RemoveAt(index);
keys.Insert(index, current);
}
```
## Validation Steps Performed
Manually verified: dropdown key selection and revert on invalid
selection, Disable mapping save/load with the new validation, "None"
absent from key picker flyout, `SetActionType` correctly selects items
with preserved XAML order.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
In 0.98.0 I made a change to support multiline text replacement using
Ctrl + V. This was very inconsistent so I have reverted back to
_basically_ the same approach we were using before except now when we
encounter a newline indicator we send "Shift + Enter" so that this works
in chat boxes and plan editors.

## Summary of the Pull Request
Fixes a crash related to `IsShownInSwitchers` when explorer.exe is not
running. The property has been removed from XAML and is now set in the
C# backend with added exception handling to improve stability. No
changes were made for projects where the property is set to true, as
they are not affected.

## Summary of the Pull Request
Fixes#45185 - CursorWrap "Automatically activate on utility startup"
setting cannot be disabled, and prevents spurious activation on startup.
## PR Checklist
- [x] Closes: #45185
- [x] **Communication:** Issue was reported by community; fix follows
established patterns from MousePointerCrosshairs
- [x] **Tests:** Manual validation performed by contributor (video
available)
- [x] **Localization:** No new user-facing strings added
- [ ] **Dev docs:** N/A - bug fix only
- [ ] **New binaries:** N/A - no new binaries
- [ ] **Documentation updated:** N/A - bug fix only
## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
### Problem
Users reported that disabling the "Automatically activate on utility
startup" setting for CursorWrap does not work - the mouse hook always
starts automatically regardless of the setting value.
### Root Causes
1. **`dllmain.cpp` `enable()` method**: `StartMouseHook()` was always
called unconditionally, ignoring `m_autoActivate`.
2. **`MouseUtilsViewModel.cs` `IsCursorWrapEnabled` setter**: enabling
CursorWrap forced `AutoActivate = true`, overriding the user's
preference.
3. **Startup edge case**: the trigger event could remain signaled from a
previous session, immediately toggling CursorWrap on startup even when
AutoActivate is off.
### Solution
1. **`src/modules/MouseUtils/CursorWrap/dllmain.cpp`**: only start the
mouse hook if `m_autoActivate` is true.
2. **`src/settings-ui/Settings.UI/ViewModels/MouseUtilsViewModel.cs`**:
remove the line that forced `AutoActivate = true` when enabling
CursorWrap.
3. **`src/modules/MouseUtils/CursorWrap/dllmain.cpp`**: reset the
trigger event on enable to avoid immediate activation on startup.
### Pattern Reference
This fix follows the same pattern used by **MousePointerCrosshairs**
module which has a similar `AutoActivate` setting that works correctly.
## Validation Steps Performed
### Build
- `tools\build\build.ps1 -Platform x64 -Configuration Debug`
### Manual validation (contributor)
#### Test Case 1: AutoActivate = false (should NOT auto-start mouse
hook)
1. Open PowerToys Settings → Mouse Utilities → Cursor Wrap
2. Enable Cursor Wrap
3. **Disable** "Automatically activate on utility startup"
4. Close PowerToys completely (right-click tray icon → Exit)
5. Restart PowerToys
6. **Expected Result**: CursorWrap module is loaded but mouse hook is
NOT active - cursor does NOT wrap at screen edges
7. Press activation hotkey (default: `Win+Alt+U`)
8. **Expected Result**: Mouse hook activates, cursor now wraps at screen
edges
9. **Actual Result**: ✅ Works as expected
#### Test Case 2: AutoActivate = true (should auto-start mouse hook)
1. Open PowerToys Settings → Mouse Utilities → Cursor Wrap
2. Enable Cursor Wrap
3. **Enable** "Automatically activate on utility startup"
4. Close PowerToys completely
5. Restart PowerToys
6. **Expected Result**: Mouse hook is immediately active, cursor wraps
at screen edges without pressing hotkey
7. **Actual Result**: ✅ Works as expected
#### Test Case 3: Setting persistence after restart
1. Set AutoActivate = false, restart PowerToys
2. Open Settings and verify AutoActivate is still false
3. Set AutoActivate = true, restart PowerToys
4. Open Settings and verify AutoActivate is still true
5. **Actual Result**: ✅ Setting persists correctly
#### Test Case 4: Hotkey toggle works correctly
1. With AutoActivate = false, restart PowerToys
2. Press hotkey → cursor should start wrapping
3. Press hotkey again → cursor should stop wrapping
4. **Actual Result**: ✅ Hotkey toggle works correctly
---
**Note**: Video demonstration available from contributor.
## Summary of the Pull Request
CursorWrap wraps on the outer edge of monitors, if a user is swapping
between a laptop and docked laptop with external monitors the user might
want to only enable wrapping when connected to external monitors, and
disable when only on the laptop.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
Currently CursorWrap will wrap around the horizontal/vertical edges of
monitors, if the user has more than one monitor the outer edges are used
as wrap targets, if the user only has one monitor (perhaps a laptop)
wrapping might be temporarily disabled until additional external
monitors are added (such as being plugged into a dock or using a USB-C
monitor).
The new option will disable wrapping if only a single monitor is
detected, monitor detection is dynamic.
## Validation Steps Performed
Validated on a Surface Laptop 7 Pro (Intel) with a USB-C External
Monitor.

## Summary of the Pull Request
This pull request refactors the `AdvancedPasteAdditionalActions` class
to use private backing fields and custom property accessors for its
action properties. This change allows for better control over property
initialization and ensures that the properties always have valid,
non-null default values.
**Refactoring for property initialization and null safety:**
* Introduced private backing fields (`_imageToText`, `_pasteAsFile`,
`_transcode`) for the `ImageToText`, `PasteAsFile`, and `Transcode`
properties in `AdvancedPasteAdditionalActions`, replacing
auto-properties.
* Updated the property accessors for `ImageToText`, `PasteAsFile`, and
`Transcode` to use the new backing fields and ensure that a new default
instance is assigned if a null value is provided during initialization.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
Before, there was a function that initialized some variables about the
current system state that were later used to check against if that state
needed to change in a different function. That caused from some issues
because I was reusing the function for a double purpose. Now the
`SyncInitialThemeState()` function in the State Manager will sync those
initial variables and apply the correct theme if needed.
I also removed an unnecessary parameter from `onTick`

## Summary of the Pull Request
Root cause: Workspaces uses DPI-unaware coordinates (via
GetDpiUnawareScreens()
which runs in a temporary DPI-unaware thread) to store/match window
positions
across different DPI settings. However, WorkspacesEditor itself uses
PerMonitorV2
DPI awareness for UI clarity. When assigning these DPI-unaware
coordinates directly
to WPF window properties, WPF automatically scaled them again based on
current DPI,
causing incorrect overlay positioning.
Fix: Use SetWindowPositionDpiUnaware() to bypass WPF's automatic DPI
scaling
by temporarily switching to DPI-unaware context when calling Win32
SetWindowPos.

## Summary of the Pull Request
- Fixes an issue where Image Resizer stops working after upgrading
PowerToys on Windows 10
- Root cause: the PackageIdentityMSIX (sparse app) was not being
properly cleaned up during upgrade
## Problem
Previous versions of PowerToys installed the sparse app on Windows 10.
The current version only installs it on Windows 11+ (build >= 22000).
During upgrade on Windows 10:
1. The `NOT UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE` condition prevented the uninstall
action from running
2. The Windows 11 version check prevented the new sparse app from being
installed
3. Result: the old sparse app remained on the system, causing Image
Resizer to malfunction
## Fix
Changed the `UninstallPackageIdentityMSIX` condition from:
Installed AND (NOT UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE) AND (REMOVE="ALL")
to:
Installed AND (REMOVE="ALL")
This ensures the old sparse app is properly cleaned up during upgrades,
which is also consistent with other similar cleanup

## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR removes a Task.Wait() call from lazy-loading AppListItem details
that could be invoked on the UI thread and lead to a deadlock.
It now follows the same pattern previously used for loading icons in the
same class, which has proven to work well.
Prevents #44938 from stepping on this landmine.
Cherry-picked from #44973.

## Summary of the Pull Request
This pull request makes a minor fix in the `AdvancedPasteViewModel`
constructor to ensure the correct settings repository is used for null
checking. The change improves code correctness by verifying
`advancedPasteSettingsRepository` instead of the generic
`settingsRepository`.
- Fixed null check to use `advancedPasteSettingsRepository` instead of
`settingsRepository` in the `AdvancedPasteViewModel` constructor for
more accurate validation.

## Validation Steps Performed
Don't show error window when CurrentItem is null - just return silently.
This restores the original behavior where CaretVisible() detection in
GetSelectedItems() would suppress Peek by returning null, and no window
would be shown.
PR #44703 added an error window for virtual folders (Home/Recent), but
this also triggered when user was typing (rename, search, address bar),
stealing focus and cancelling the operation.
Fixes#44845

## Summary of the Pull Request
This pull request adds telemetry tracking for user interactions with the
application's tray icon. Specifically, it introduces new methods for
logging `left-click`, `right-click`, and `double-click` events, and
integrates these telemetry calls into the tray icon event handling
logic.

## Summary of the Pull Request
This pull request updates the tray icon context menu logic to better
reflect the state of the "Quick Access" feature. The menu now
dynamically updates its items and labels based on whether Quick Access
is enabled or disabled, improving clarity for users.
**Menu behavior improvements:**
* The tray icon menu now reloads itself when the Quick Access setting
changes, ensuring the menu always matches the current state.
* The "Settings" menu item label changes to "Settings\tLeft-click" when
Quick Access is disabled, providing clearer instructions to users.

* The Quick Access menu item is removed from the context menu when the
feature is disabled, preventing confusion.
**Internal state tracking:**
* Added a new variable `last_quick_access_state` to track the previous
Quick Access state and trigger menu reloads only when necessary.

Enhanced SanitizeAndNormalize to handle Unicode normalization more
robustly, ensuring correct buffer sizing and error handling. Added unit
tests for regex metacharacters `$` and `^` to verify correct replacement
behavior at string boundaries. Improves Unicode support and test
