+ - Added the SVGL third-party plugin to PowerToys Run, enabling users to search, browse, and copy SVG logos. Thanks [@SameerJS6](https://github.com/SameerJS6)!
+ - Added Monaco usage for the Registry Preview.
 
 ### Development
 
- - Updated GitHub Action to install .NET 9 for MSStore release support.
- - Updated version placeholder in bug_report.yml to prevent incorrect v0.70.0 versioning in issue reports.
- - Updated GitHub Action to upgrade actions/setup-dotnet from version 3 to version 4 for MSStore release.
- - Added securityContext to WinGet configuration files, allowing invocation from user context and prompting a single UAC for elevated resources in a separate process. Thanks [@mdanish-kh](https://github.com/mdanish-kh)!
- - Changed log file extensions from .txt to .log to support proper file associations and tooling compatibility, and added logs for Workspace. Thanks [@benwa](https://github.com/benwa)!
- - Upgraded testing framework dependencies and aligned package versions across components.
- - Upgraded dependencies to fix vulnerabilities.
- - Enhanced repository security by pinning GitHub Actions and Docker tags to immutable full-length commits and integrating automated dependency vulnerability scanning via Dependency Review Workflow. Thanks [@Nick2bad4u](https://github.com/Nick2bad4u)!
- - Upgraded Boost dependencies to a newer version.
- - Upgraded toolkit to the latest version, suppressed AoT-related warnings.
- - Fixed an issue where missing signing for newly added files caused build failures.
- - Update release pipeline to prevent publishing private symbols for 100 years.
- - Introduced fuzzing for PowerRename to improve reliability and added setup guidance for extending fuzzing to other C++ modules.
- - Added centralized pre-creation of generated folders for all .csproj projects to prevent build failures.
- - Updated WinAppSDK to the latest 1.7 version.
- - Upgraded Boost dependencies to the latest version for the PowerRename Fuzzing project.
- - Updated the ADO area path in tsa.json to resolve TSA pipeline errors caused by a deprecated path.
- - Initiated AoT support for CmdPal with foundational work in progress.
-  
-### Tool/General
+ - Updated WinGet configuration file location and extension. Thanks [@mdanish-kh](https://github.com/mdanish-kh)!
+ - Removed the Markdown file bypass to ensure CI runs for commits that only update Markdown files.
+ - Fixed an issue where the default generated file path exceeded the length limit of 260 characters for EnvironmentVariablesUILib.csproj, causing build failures.
+ - Upgraded WindowsAppSDK to 1.6.250205002 and CsWinRT to 2.2.0. Thanks [@htcfreek](https://github.com/htcfreek) for review!
+ - Upgraded XamlStyler to 3.2501.8 and dotnet-consolidate to 4.2.0. Thanks [@davidegiacometti](https://github.com/davidegiacometti)!
+ - Updated .NET Packages from 9.0.2 to 9.0.3.
+ - Optimized the UI Test Automation Framework and added UI test cases for the Hosts File Editor module.
+ - Added fuzz testing for RegistryPreview.
+ - Added new UI tests for the FancyZones editor, including tests for creating, duplicating, editing, and deleting layouts.
+ - Added telemetry code to measure the module editor open time and evaluate the benefits of applying AOT.
 
- - Added support for automating bug report creation by generating a pre-filled GitHub issue URL with system and diagnostic information. Thanks [@donlaci](https://github.com/donlaci)!
- - Added scripts to locally build the installer, ensuring the CmdPal can also be launched in a local environment.
- - Removed export PFX logic to eliminate hardcoded password usage and resolve PSScriptAnalyzer security warning.
- - Added PowerShell script and CI integration to enforce consistent use of Common.Dotnet.CsWinRT.props across all C# projects under the src folder.
