 # Non-English
-# Even repositories expecting pure English content can unintentionally have Non-English content... People will occasionally mistakenly enter [homoglyphs](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homoglyph) which are essentially typos, and using this pattern will mean check-spelling will not complain about them.
-#
-# If the content to be checked should be written in English and the only Non-English items will be people's names, then you can consider adding this.
-#
-# Alternatively, if you're using check-spelling v0.0.25+, and you would like to _check_ the Non-English content for spelling errors, you can. For information on how to do so, see:

Achieving agreement in a spec before writing code often results in simpler code and less wasted effort.

+### 0.83 - July 2024 Update
 
-In this release, we focused on new features, stability, and improvements.
+In this release, we focused on stability and improvements.
 
 **Highlights**
 
- - New utility: ZoomIt - a screen zoom, annotation, and recording tool for technical presentations and demos. This utility from Sysinternals has had its source code released and included in PowerToys. ZoomIt will still continue to be updated and shipped by Sysinternals for users who prefer to have it as a standalone utility outside of PowerToys. Thanks [@markrussinovich](https://github.com/markrussinovich), [@foxmsft](https://github.com/foxmsft) and [@johnstep](https://github.com/johnstep) for contributing the original code and reviewing the PowerToys integration!
- - Video Conference Mute has been deprecated and was removed from PowerToys.
- - .Net 9.0.1 fixed many issue in WPF, improving stability for PowerToys Run.
+ - Awake Quality of Life changes, including changing the tray icon to reflect the current mode. Thanks [@dend](https://github.com/dend)!
+ - Changes to general GPO policies and new policies for Mouse Without Borders. The names for some intune policy configuration sets might need to be updated as seen in https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/windows-dev-docs/pull/5045/files . Thanks [@htcfreek](https://github.com/htcfreek)!
 
 ### General
- - Applied a workaround for the Windows App SDK applications title bar override that was causing accent color to not be shown on the top bar of applications on Windows 10. Thanks [@pingzing](https://github.com/pingzing)!
- - Improved the "admin application running" notification checking logic to be less demanding on resources. Thanks [@davidegiacometti](https://github.com/davidegiacometti)!
- - Fixed an issue causing many utilities to crash when the GPO to disable data diagnostics was applied.
+ - Reordered GPO policies, making it easier to find some policies. Thanks [@htcfreek](https://github.com/htcfreek)!
 
 ### Advanced Paste
 
- - Fixed a crash when the application was exiting. (This was a hotfix for 0.87)
- - Added a Json format validation step to verify if a conversion to Json should be applied.
- - Fixed accessibility issues when using a screen reader.
- - Added support for all BitmapDecoder supported image file types to the Image to Text functionality. Thanks [@daverayment](https://github.com/daverayment)!
- - Fixed an issue causing Advanced Paste initialization errors to hang the PowerToys main process.
+ - Fixed CSV parser to support double quotes and escape delimiters when pasting as JSON. Thanks [@GhostVaibhav](https://github.com/GhostVaibhav)!
+ - Improved double quote handling in the CSV parser when pasting as JSON. Thanks [@htcfreek](https://github.com/htcfreek)!
 
-### FancyZones

-# UI tests framework
-
- A specialized UI test framework for PowerToys that makes it easy to write UI tests for PowerToys modules or settings. Let's start writing UI tests!
-
-## Before running tests  
-
-- Install Windows Application Driver v1.2.1 from https://github.com/microsoft/WinAppDriver/releases/tag/v1.2.1 to the default directory (`C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Application Driver`)
-
-- Enable Developer Mode in Windows settings
-
-## Running tests
-
-- Exit PowerToys if it's running.
-
-- Open `PowerToys.sln` in Visual Studio and build the solution.
-
-- Run tests in the Test Explorer (`Test > Test Explorer` or `Ctrl+E, T`).
-
-
-## How to add the first UI tests for your modules
-
-- Create a new project and add the following references to the project file. Change the OutputPath to your own module's path.
-  ```
-  	<PropertyGroup>
-  		<OutputType>Library</OutputType>
-  		<!-- This is a UI test, so don't run as part of MSBuild -->
-  		<RunVSTest>false</RunVSTest>
-  	</PropertyGroup>
-  
-  	<PropertyGroup>
-  		<OutputPath>..\..\..\..\$(Platform)\$(Configuration)\tests\KeyboardManagerUITests\</OutputPath>
-  	</PropertyGroup>
-  
-  	<ItemGroup>
-  	    <PackageReference Include="MSTest" />
-  	    <ProjectReference Include="..\..\..\common\UITestAutomation\UITestAutomation.csproj" />
-  	    <Folder Include="Properties\" />
-	</ItemGroup>
-  ```
-- Inherit your test class from UITestBase.
-  >Set Scope: The default scope starts from the PowerToys settings UI. If you want to start from your own module, set the constructor as shown below:
-  
-  >Specify Scope:
-  ```
-  [TestClass]
-  public class RunFancyZonesTest : UITestBase
-  {
-      public RunFancyZonesTest()
-          : base(PowerToysModule.FancyZone)
-      {
-      }
-  }
-  ```
-
-- Then you can start using session to perform the UI operations.
-
-**Example**
-```
-using Microsoft.PowerToys.UITest;
-using Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting;
-
-namespace UITests_KeyboardManager
-{
-    [TestClass]
-    public class RunKeyboardManagerUITests : UITestBase
-    {
-        [TestMethod]
-        public void OpenKeyboardManagerEditor()
-        {
-            // Open KeyboardManagerEditor
-            this.Session.Find<Button>(By.Name("Remap a key")).Click();
-            this.Session.Attach("Remap keys");
-
-            // Maximize window
-            var window = Session.Find<Window>(By.Name("Remap keys")).Maximize();
-
-            // Add Key Remapping
-            this.Session.Find<Button>(By.Name("Add key remapping")).Click();
-            window.Close();
-
-            // Back to Settings
-            this.Session.Attach(PowerToysModule.PowerToysSettings);
-        }
-    }
-}
-```
-
-## Extra tools and information
-
- **Accessibility Tools**:
-While working on tests, you may need a tool that helps you to view the element's accessibility data, e.g. for finding the button to click. For this purpose, you could use [AccessibilityInsights](https://accessibilityinsights.io/docs/windows/overview)

 ## Localization on the pipeline (CDPX)
 [The localization step](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/86d77103e9c69686c297490acb04775d43ef8b76/.pipelines/pipeline.user.windows.yml#L45-L52) is run on the pipeline before the solution is built. This step runs the [build-localization](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/main/.pipelines/build-localization.cmd) script, which generates resx files for all the projects with localization enabled using the `Localization.XLoc` package.

Each localized project has a `LocProject.json` file in the project root, which contains the location of the English resx file, list of languages for localization, and the output path where the localized resx files are to be copied to. In addition to this, some other parameters can be set, such as whether the language ID should be added as a folder in the file path or in the file name. When the CDPX pipeline is run, the localization team is notified of changes in the English resx files. For each project with localization enabled, a `loc` folder (see [this](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/tree/main/src/modules/launcher/Microsoft.Launcher/loc) for example) is created in the same directory as the `LocProject.json` file. The folder contains language specific folders which in turn have a nested folder path equivalent to `OutputPath` in the `LocProject.json`. Each of these folders contain one `lcl` file. The `lcl` files contain the English resources along with their translation for that language. These are described in more detail in the [Lcl files section](#lcl-files). Once the `.resx` files are generated, they will be used during the `Build PowerToys` step for localized versions of the modules.

 C++ projects do not support `resx` files, and instead use `rc` files along with `resource.h` files. The CDPX pipeline however doesn't support localizing `rc` files and the other alternative they support is directly translating the resources from the binary which makes it harder to maintain resources.

This is required to ensure that two remaps don't occur simultaneously at a time, and we send key up events for the shortcuts only if they are actually invoked and not for artificial key up events. In addition to that, while a remap is in the middle of execution, the keyboard state will not match the physical keys, so we do not want a remap <kbd>Ctrl+A</kbd> to <kbd>Ctrl+V</kbd> to also trigger the remap from <kbd>Ctrl+V</kbd> to <kbd>Alt+V</kbd> on pressing <kbd>Ctrl+A</kbd> on the keyboard.
 - Get the remap table as per the `activatedApp` argument (i.e. if it is empty, we get the global shortcut remap table and otherwise we get the corresponding app-specific shortcut remap table).
 - Iterate over the list of remaps in descending order of number of keys in the shortcut. This is required **for shortcut to key remaps** to ensure that if a user has both <kbd>Ctrl+A</kbd> and <kbd>Ctrl+Shift+A</kbd> remapped to some keys, and the user presses <kbd>Ctrl+Shift+A</kbd>, then we prefer the <kbd>Ctrl+Shift+A</kbd> remap. This logic would not be required if there were only shortcut to shortcut remaps, as they are invoked only on exact match.

For example: remap <kbd>Ctrl+A</kbd> to <kbd>Alt+Tab</kbd> for Edge, when a user presses <kbd>Ctrl+A</kbd> the window loses focus as <kbd>Alt+Tab</kbd> gets executed.

     - `inProcess` sub-key was added in `remapKeys` because there was a possibility of adding the registry based remapping approach (used by [SharpKeys](https://github.com/randyrants/sharpkeys)), so that would be under a separate sub-key while `inProcess` would be for keyboard hook based remaps.

 **Note:** Single key remaps need to be executed before shortcut remaps, because otherwise there can be several logical issues. For example if a user has Ctrl remapped to X and Ctrl+A remapped to Y, we can't detect Ctrl+A because the moment Ctrl is pressed it would be remapped to X before the system ever sees Ctrl+A. This is why the design decision was made to separate Remap keys and Remap shortcuts, and all key remaps are reflected in the shortcut remaps.
 
 ## Custom Action to launch KBM UI

On clicking the button, we check if there is already any active KBM UI window, and if there is it is brought to the foreground. If not, the corresponding KBM UI window is launched on a separate detached thread. The UI is described in more detail in [Keyboard Manager UI](keyboardmanagerui.md).

 The [`Shortcut` class](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/main/src/modules/keyboardmanager/common/Shortcut.h) is a data structure for storing key combinations which are valid shortcuts and it contains several methods which are used for shortcut specific operations. [`RemapShortcut`](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/main/src/modules/keyboardmanager/common/RemapShortcut.h) consists of a shortcut/key union (`std::variant`), along with other boolean flags which are required on the hook side for storing any relevant keyboard states mid-execution.
