## Add Quotation mark
Add local quotation based on ~~VK_OEM_7(0xDE)~~ VK_OEM_COMMA(0xBC) key.
Not all quotes have been added, only `‟ „ ” « » ‚ , ‘ ’ › ‹ '「 」 《 》 『
』〈 〉″ ‴ ⁗`
Why not added :
- ` ⹂ ⌜ ⌝ ❛ ❜ ❝ ❞ 🙶 🙷 🙸 ＇ ｢ ｣ ` its redundant and would make too much
and not readable.
- ` ﹁ ﹂ ﹃ ﹄ ` I did not put them because there use for horizontal text

This PR is currently a draft, I still need to know if adding
language-related keyboard management is a good idea or specifying the
use of a gobal key to make it easier to manage all the keyboards in one.
Some languages can use different keyboards, I think this would become
problematic if the keyboard does not match the key used by default.
However, using a universal key can also pose an issue to finding the
key. that remains to be discussed

## Summary
Restores the "Quick access" menu item that was accidentally removed from
the PowerToys tray icon context menu.
## Issue
Fixes #[issue_number]
The "Quick access" menu item was missing from the tray icon's
right-click context menu, preventing users from accessing this feature
via the tray menu.
**Expected menu:**
**Actual menu (before this fix):**
## Changes
- Added the missing `MENUITEM "Quick access\tLeft-click",
ID_QUICK_ACCESS_MENU_COMMAND` entry as the first menu item in the
`ID_TRAY_MENU` definition in `src/runner/runner.base.rc`
## Details
The menu item was accidentally removed in commit
f5797a065a. This PR restores it to its
correct position as the first item in the tray menu.
All supporting code was already in place:
- The resource ID `ID_QUICK_ACCESS_MENU_COMMAND` (40006) is defined in
`resource.base.h`
- The resource string `QUICK_ACCESS_MENU_TEXT` is defined in
`Resources.resx`
- The menu command handler in `tray_icon.cpp` opens the Quick Access
flyout window
- The localization code updates the menu text at runtime
## Testing
- ✅ Verified the menu item syntax is correct and matches existing
patterns
- ✅ Confirmed all supporting resource IDs and handler code exist
- ✅ CI build verification pending
After this fix, the tray menu will correctly display:
1. Quick access (Left-click)
2. Settings (Double-click)
3. Documentation
4. Report Bug
5. Close

## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR introduces a bit of dark magic to resolve the correct installed
app for a given WinGet package:
- Packaged apps: matched using their package family name.
- Everything else: matched using the product code (GUID) and heuristic
registry lookup.
- The registry rarely stores the executable path directly, so the logic
compares install locations with known apps.
- It attempts to pick the best candidate while avoiding uninstallers.
- It’s not science — let’s call it `#666666` magic.
- MSI API support was removed because it's too slow for this scenario.
- If no reliable match is found, the command is skipped for now. The
future plan is to redirect the user to the list of installed apps and
search by display name, but that needs some supporting infrastructure
first.
- The command order for WinGet list entries was updated: **Install /
Uninstall** is now the primary action, ensuring a stable UI since this
command is always available.

Data collection is still hard.
This just makes it so that the build pipeline uses the updated PowerToys
telemetry NuGet package. The updated package switches us over to use a
diagnostic data provider group for compliance with some new regulations
(i.e. DMA and EU Data Act).
## Summary of the Pull Request
**Part 6** of a [slow-running 7-part
refactor](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/issues/35155#issuecomment-2583334110)
of the giant "Common" class in Mouse Without Borders into individual
classes with tighter private scope.
In this PR:
* Extract the "Common" code from the following files:
* ```Common.Encryption.cs```-> ```Core/Encryption.cs```
* ```Common.Package.cs``` -> ```Core/<multiple files>.cs```
* ```Common.ShutdownWithPowerToys.cs``` ->
```Core/ShutdownWithPowerToys.cs```
* ```Common.VK.cs``` -> ```Core/VK.cs```, ```Core/WM.cs```
* ```Common.WinAPI.cs``` -> ```Core/WinAPI.cs```
* Update references to the types in the new locations
* Update unit test to verify functionality has only changed in an
expected way

## Validation Steps Performed
### Run manual tests from [Test Checklist
Template](5bc7201ae2/doc/releases/tests-checklist-template.md (mouse-without-borders)):
* Install PowerToys on two PCs in the same local network:
- [x] Verify that PowerToys is properly installed on both PCs.
- [x] Configure Windows Firewall Rules
- ```netsh advfirewall firewall add rule
name="PowerToys.MouseWithoutBorders - mc" dir=in action=allow
program="C:\src\mc\PowerToys\x64\Debug\PowerToys.exe" enable=yes
remoteip=any profile=any protocol=tcp```
* Setup Connection:
- [x] Open MWB's settings on the first PC and click the "New Key"
button. Verify that a new security key is generated.
- [x] Copy the generated security key and paste it in the corresponding
input field in the settings of MWB on the second PC. Also enter the name
of the first PC in the required field.
- [x] Press "Connect" and verify that the machine layout now includes
two PC tiles, each displaying their respective PC names.
* Verify Connection Status:
- [x] Ensure that the border of the remote PC turns green, indicating a
successful connection.
- [x] Enter an incorrect security key and verify that the border of the
remote PC turns red, indicating a failed connection.
* Test Remote Mouse/Keyboard Control:
- [x] With the PCs connected, test the mouse/keyboard control from one
PC to another. Verify that the mouse/keyboard inputs are correctly
registered on the other PC.
- [ ] Test remote mouse/keyboard control across all four PCs, if
available. Verify that inputs are correctly registered on each connected
PC when the mouse is active there.
- unable to test - only 2 machines available
* Test Remote Control with Elevated Apps:
- note - the main PowerToys.exe must be running as a **non**-admin for
these tests
- [x] Open an elevated app on one of the PCs. Verify that without "Use
Service" enabled, PowerToys does not control the elevated app.
- [x] Enable "Use Service" in MWB's settings (need to run PowerToys.exe
as admin to enable "Use Service", then restart PowerToys.exe as
non-admin). Verify that PowerToys can now control the elevated app
remotely. Verify that MWB processes are running as LocalSystem, while
the MWB helper process is running non-elevated.
- ```get-process -Name "PowerToys.MouseWithoutBorders*" -IncludeUserName
| format-table Id, ProcessName, UserName```
- [x] Process: ```PowerToys.MouseWithoutBorders.exe``` - running as
```SYSTEM```
- [x] Process: ```PowerToys.MouseWithoutBorders.Helper.exe``` - running
as current user
- ```get-service -Name "PowerToys.*" | ft Status, Name, UserName;
get-ciminstance -Class "Win32_Service" -Filter "Name like 'PowerToys%'"
| ft ProcessId, Name```
- [x] Service: ```PowerToys.MWB.Service``` - running as ```Local
System```
- [x] Toggle "Use Service" again, verify that each time you do that, the
MWB processes are restarted.
- [x] Run PowerToys elevated on one of the machines, verify that you can
control elevated apps remotely now on that machine.
* Test Module Enable Status:
- [x] For all combinations of "Use Service"/"Run PowerToys as admin",
try enabling/disabling MWB module and verify that it's indeed being
toggled using task manager.
* Test Disconnection/Reconnection:
- [x] Disconnect one of the PCs from network. Verify that the machine
layout updates to reflect the disconnection.
- [x] Do the same, but now by exiting PowerToys.
- [ ] Start PowerToys again, verify that the PCs are reconnected.
* Test Various Local Network Conditions:
- [ ] Test MWB performance under various network conditions (e.g., low
bandwidth, high latency). Verify that the tool maintains a stable
connection and functions correctly.
* Clipboard Sharing:
- [x] Copy some text on one PC and verify that the same text can be
pasted on another PC.
- [x] Use the screenshot key and Win+Shift+S to take a screenshot on one
PC and verify that the screenshot can be pasted on another PC.
- [x] Copy a file in Windows Explorer and verify that the file can be
pasted on another PC. Make sure the file size is below 100MB.
- [x] Try to copy multiple files and directories and verify that it's
not possible (only the first selected file is being copied).
* Drag and Drop:
- [ ] Drag a file from Windows Explorer on one PC, cross the screen
border onto another PC, and release it there. Verify that the file is
copied to the other PC. Make sure the file size is below 100MB.
- [ ] While dragging the file, verify that a corresponding icon is
displayed under the mouse cursor.
- [ ] Without moving the mouse from one PC to the target PC, press
CTRL+ALT+F1/2/3/4 hotkey to switch to the target PC directly and verify
that file sharing/dropping is not working.
* Lock and Unlock with "Use Service" Enabled:
- [x] Enable "Use Service" in MWB's settings.
- [x] Lock a remote PC using Win+L, move the mouse to it remotely, and
try to unlock it. Verify that you can unlock the remote PC.
- [x] Disable "Use Service" in MWB's settings, lock the remote PC, move
the mouse to it remotely, and try to unlock it. Verify that you can't
unlock the remote PC.
* Test Settings:
- [ ] Change the rest of available settings on MWB page and verify that
each setting works as described.

## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR fixes the crash due to binding to a trimmed property. For this
it converts runtime bindings on GridView to use `{x:Bind}` so this issue
can't happen in the future.
- Fixes a crash related to the `Visibility` property in gallery/grid
views when trimmed during AOT builds.
- Fixes ShowTitle and ShowSubtitle properties, they are now taken into
account in a view.
- Improves UI layout, removes some margins and maches the corner radius
of the item contaienr with the item content in the gallery view.
- Refactores gallery and grid views to move logic from the view to the
view model so we can x:Bind to them.
- Replaces `{Binding}` with `{x:Bind}` to improve performance and enable
compile-time binding validation.
- Properties related to grids are splatted on to the common
`IGridPropertiesViewModel` interface. Subclassing would add extra
overhead without substential benefit.
- Adds new samples to showcase various grid view configurations.

## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR allows user to customize a search query in Command Palette's Web
Search built-in extension. This will also solve a problem with some
browser that doesn't handle argument in form "? <query>" as it will
allow user to specify the complete URI.
- Introduces a new text box in Web Search extension settings for
specifying a custom search engine URI
- If the text box is non-empty, the provided URI is used for queries
- If left empty, the extension defaults to previous behavior, sending
queries in the format "? query"

## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR introduces a small ribbon to the CmdPal for app developers. The
dev ribbon is dynamically added to the main window in local (non-CI)
builds. It shows the number of logged errors and warnings, the current
build configuration (Debug or Release), and whether it’s built with AOT.
The flyout shows the latest errors and warnings and lets you quickly
access the logs.

## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR introduces a new method for determining the default browser
using the Windows Shell API. The new provider selects the browser
associated with the HTTPS protocol (falling back to HTTP if necessary).
The original implementation is retained as a fallback for now, and the
codebase is prepared for future extensions (e.g., manual default-browser
selection).
As a flyby, it also fixes an issue where commands continued showing the
previous browser name if the user changed their default browser while
the Command Palette was running.
## One-liner for change log
Fixed default browser selection in the Web Search built-in extension.

## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR replaces the Go home when activated setting with a new
Automatically return home option. This allows users to specify how long
the Command Palette should wait after being dismissed before
automatically returning to the home page. It also introduces migration
logic to transition from the old setting to the new one.

## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR improves Command Palette behavior in “Last position” mode:
- Correctly handles DPI changes between monitors.
- Ensures the window is always visible — if it’s fully off-screen or has
less than 100px visible on any axis, it is re-centered.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
This was because of my recent change to the timed mode. The `Subscribe`
method on the `Observable` interval accidentally wired the completion
logic to the **Error** handler instead of the **Completion** handler
because of the use of a discard `_` instead of an empty parameter list
`()`. As a result of the incorrect overload being called, Awake stayed
in the Timed state despite the timer reaching zero.
<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
Confirmed that the timed mode times out and exits upon expiry.
Updated LightSwitch module documentation to clarify the role of
LightSwitchService and LightSwitchStateManager.

## 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.

## 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.

## Summary of the Pull Request
This pull request removes legacy provider configuration migration logic
and associated data structures from the Advanced Paste AI provider
settings. The changes simplify the codebase by eliminating support for
legacy provider configuration snapshots and related migration methods,
focusing configuration management on the current provider model.

BugReportTool is the last consumer in the PowerToys repo of cziplib, a
library we use to produce ZIP files.
This pull request replaces cziplib with a simple CreateProcess call that
spawns `tar.exe`, which comes with Windows as of RS4 and can produce ZIP
files!
I've tested this by producing a bug report archive and attempting to
open it with File Explorer. It works fine.
We have taken every precaution to ensure that we do not allow any
attacker-controlled input to tar's command line. We are *not* using
`system()`, and we are not opening up a vector through which a nefarious
caller can perform shell injection.
We do not pass filenames to tar except that of the final archive. We do
not pass directory names to tar; we rely on the current directory
instead.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
I initially tried solving this by using a Regex on the card JSON to
replace all `Input.Toggle` elements with the new `ColumnSet` structure.
However, since `ToggleSetting.cs` already serves as a wrapper for
creating an Input.Toggle, I decided it was more effective to update the
declaration inside the `ToDictionary()` method directly.
### This is the result:

## Summary of the Pull Request
This fixes two issues with the ZoomIt screenshot save function:
- The "actual size" saved bitmap was recomputed from the zoomed-in
viewport, leading to artefacts and a non-1:1 pixel accurate output if
smooth mode was active.
- Two bitmap objects were not deleted after being selected, leading to a
leak of 1 or 2 GDI objects per screenshot save operation.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
### GDI object leak
In the prior code, bitmap objects were created:
```cpp
// Capture the screen before displaying the save dialog
hInterimSaveDc = CreateCompatibleDC( hdcScreen );
hInterimSaveBitmap = CreateCompatibleBitmap( hdcScreen, copyWidth, copyHeight );
SelectObject( hInterimSaveDc, hInterimSaveBitmap );
...
hSaveBitmap = CreateCompatibleBitmap( hdcScreen, saveWidth, saveHeight );
SelectObject( hSaveDc, hSaveBitmap );
```
but were not deleted in the clean-up:
```cpp
DeleteDC( hInterimSaveDc );
DeleteDC( hSaveDc );
```
Deleting their associated device contexts orphans the bitmaps and the
GDI objects will not be recovered until ZoomIt is closed.
### Fix
The code now uses RAII for handles to DCs and Bitmaps, e.g.:
```cpp
wil::unique_hdc hdcZoomed( CreateCompatibleDC(hdcScreen) );
wil::unique_hbitmap hbmZoomed(
CreateCompatibleBitmap( hdcScreen, copyWidth, copyHeight ) );
SelectObject( hdcZoomed.get(), hbmZoomed.get() );
```
The handles are automatically cleaned up when the variables go out of
scope.
The existing `DeleteDC` code has been removed.
### Screenshot Actual Size save issue
ZoomIt's save screenshot routine operated on the currently-displayed
view, i.e. the zoomed-in viewport, executing a copy of the full monitor
resolution image to begin:
```cpp
StretchBlt( hInterimSaveDc,
0, 0,
copyWidth, copyHeight,
hdcScreen,
monInfo.rcMonitor.left + copyX,
monInfo.rcMonitor.top + copyY,
copyWidth, copyHeight,
SRCCOPY|CAPTUREBLT );
```
(Here hdcScreen represents the zoomed-in image.)
When "Actual size" was selected by the user, this bitmap was scaled back
down to attempt to reproduce the 1:1 pixel source:
```cpp
StretchBlt( hSaveDc,
0, 0,
saveWidth, saveHeight,
hInterimSaveDc,
0,
0,
copyWidth, copyHeight,
SRCCOPY | CAPTUREBLT );
SavePng( targetFilePath, hSaveBitmap );
```
This mostly works if the smooth mode is not applied because the zoom
levels tend to produce integer zoomed pixel sizes, although it still
produces inexact results at times.
The main issue is that the new smooth mode produces a halftone-smoothed
output on the display. Attempting to scale this back down to a
pixel-accurate source removes high frequency detail and does not reflect
the underlying bitmap:

### Fix
This fix reverses the prior logic. Instead of using the zoomed-in
viewport as the screenshot source, we start by blitting a copy of the
source bitmap itself, from `hdcScreenCompat`. If a zoomed screenshot is
required, this is used as the source of the resize, i.e. we replicate
the zoom the user sees in their viewport.
This approach:
- Is faster and saves memory. It removes the need for an initial
`StretchBlt` operation, and the working bitmap itself is significantly
smaller if the user is zoomed in.
- Saves on the second resize operation if "Actual size" is chosen. We
can simply save the copy as-is.
- Removes the need to care about monitor coords. All calculations are
relative to the top-left of the source bitmap copy.
- Simplifies the code. In addition to being able to remove some code,
locality is improved - the creation of the zoomed image (and the
application of smoothing, if required) is now immediately next to where
it is saved.
<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
(Manual validation on standalone ZoomIt build.)
- Confirmed that "Actual size" screenshots are now 1:1 copies of the
underlying bitmap, not scaled copies of the screen display.
- Confirmed that screenshots no longer leak GDI objects in either
"Zoomed" or "Actual size" modes.
- Tested cropped and non-cropped saves, i.e. using
<kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>Shift</kbd>+<kbd>S</kbd> versus
<kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>S</kbd>.
- Tested that user-added drawing/text was preserved in screenshots.
- Tested that both smooth and non-smooth zoom modes operate as they did
previously.
- Tested on multiple monitors, including a high-DPI external monitor
running at 175% scaling.

## 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.

* 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.

## 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.

## Summary of the Pull Request
This pull request simplifies the application launch logic in
`App.xaml.cs` by removing debug-specific code paths and asynchronous
window initialization. The main change is to standardize the launch
process for both debug and release builds.
**Launch logic simplification:**
* Removed the `#if DEBUG` conditional compilation around the
`OnLaunched` method, so the method signature is now consistent in all
build configurations.
* Eliminated the asynchronous call to `ShowWindow()` that was previously
executed only in debug mode, streamlining the launch behavior and
removing direct window access during debugging.

#[5979](https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/windows-dev-docs-pr/pull/5979)
---------
Co-authored-by: Niels Laute <niels.laute@live.nl>
This change coalesces the `WM_MOUSEMOVE` events with the `WM_TIMER`
events in the cases 1, 2 (telescope animation for zoom in, respectively,
out). I factored into a new lambda the `WM_TIMER` code and I made it
save the "now" amount of ticks into the new `g_TelescopingZoomLastTick`.
During `WM_MOUSEMOVE` processing, if the current tick count (rather
imprecise, but good enough) is larger than the animation step,
`ZOOM_LEVEL_STEP_TIME`, then I call that lambda. It's convenient that
the code in there already handles the "end of telescope zooming
animation" case.
## Validation Steps Performed
The choppy zooming animation was evident while moving the mouse during a
telescope zoom. It was also [reported on the Sysinternals
blog](https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/sysinternals-blog/zoomit-v9-10-procdump-3-5-for-linux-and-jcd-1-0-1/4461244/replies/4461281).

## Summary of the Pull Request
**Root Cause**
The issue occurs because the Installed property in MSI indicates whether
the current product code has been installed on the machine.
During a Major Upgrade (where the old and new versions have different
ProductCode values), the installation sequence is:
1. Burn schedules uninstall of the old MSI (the old version might not
have this custom action).
2. Then installs the new MSI.
> - At this point, the current product has not yet been installed, so
the Installed property is empty.
> - The condition NOT Installed evaluates to true, and
SetBundleInstallLocationData / SetBundleInstallLocation executes
normally, writing the InstallLocation registry key.
This means upgrading from an older version without this function to a
newer version with it works correctly.
However, issues appear in subsequent upgrades (from “newer” → “newer”)
because both versions include the same custom action.
The previous condition restricted the action to run only on first
install, preventing it from running during upgrades.
**Fix**
Added `OR WIX_UPGRADE_DETECTED` to the condition of
SetBundleInstallLocationData / SetBundleInstallLocation custom actions,
so they also execute during upgrade scenarios, ensuring the
InstallLocation registry value is correctly updated after version
upgrades.

## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR (#43361) tries to fix the CI failure, and the root cause is
correct. However, using ;$(MSBuildThisFileDirectory)Generated Files
causes the include path to become \Generated Files\Generated
Files\resource.h. Removing Generated Files fixes the issue so that cl
can find the correct file.
