+### PowerToys Roadmap
+
+Our [prioritized roadmap][roadmap] of features and utilities that the core team is focusing on.
+
+### 0.94 - Sep 2025 Update
+
+In this release, we focused on new features, stability, optimization improvements, and automation.
+
+For an in-depth look at the latest changes, visit the [release blog](https://aka.ms/powertoys-releaseblog).
+
+**✨Highlights**
 
  - PowerToys Settings added a Settings search with fuzzy matching, suggestions, a results page, and UX polish to make finding options faster.
  - A comprehensive hotkey conflict detection system was introduced in Settings to surface and help resolve conflicting shortcuts. Note that the default hotkey settings (Win+Ctrl+Shift+T, Win+Ctrl+V, Win+Ctrl+T, Win+Shift+T) may overlap with existing Windows system shortcuts. This is expected. You can resolve the conflict by assigning different hotkeys.

-[Public Overview – Microsoft Learn](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/powertoys/light-switch)
-
-## Quick Links
-
-* [All Issues](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20state%3Aopen%20label%3AProduct-LightSwitch)
-* [Bugs](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20state%3Aopen%20label%3AProduct-LightSwitch%20label%3AIssue-Bug)
-* [Pull Requests](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aopen+label%3AProduct-LightSwitch)
-
-## Overview
-
-The **Light Switch** module lets users automatically transition between light and dark mode using a timed schedule or a keyboard shortcut.
-
-## Features
-
-* Set custom times to start and stop dark mode.
-* Use geolocation to determine local sunrise and sunset times.
-* Apply offsets in sunrise mode (e.g., 15 minutes before sunset).
-* Quickly toggle between modes with a keyboard shortcut (`Ctrl+Shift+Win+D` by default).
-* Choose whether theme changes apply to:
-
-  * Apps only
-  * System only
-  * Both apps and system
-
-## Architecture
-
-### Main Components
-
-* **Shortcut/Hotkey**
-  Listens for a hotkey event. Calling `onHotkey()` flips the theme flags.
-
-  > **Note:** Using the shortcut overrides the current schedule until the next transition event.
-
-* **LightSwitchService**
-  Reads settings and applies theming. Runs a check every minute to ensure the state is correct.
-
-* **SettingsXAML/LightSwitch**
-  Provides the settings UI for configuring schedules, syncing location, and customizing shortcuts.
-
-* **Settings.UI/ViewModels/LightSwitchViewModel.cs**
-  Handles updates to the settings file and communicates changes to the front end.
-
-* **modules/LightSwitch/Tests**
-  Contains UI tests that verify interactions between the settings UI, system state, and `settings.json`.
-
-### Data Flow
-
-1. User configures settings in the UI (default: manual mode, light mode from 06:00–18:00).
-2. Every minute, the service checks the time.
-
-   * If it’s not a threshold, the service sleeps until the next minute.
-   * If it matches a threshold, the service applies the theme based on settings and returns to sleep.
-3. At **midnight**, when in *Sunrise to Sunset* mode, the service updates daily sunrise and sunset times.
-4. If the machine was asleep during a scheduled event, the service applies the correct settings at the next check.
-
-## User Interface
-
-The module’s settings are exposed in the PowerToys Settings UI. Options include:
-
-* Shortcut customization
-* Mode selection (Manual or Sunrise to Sunset)
-* Manual start/stop times (manual mode only)
-* Automatic sunrise/sunset calculation (location-based)
-* Time offsets (sunrise mode)
-* Target scope (system, apps, or both)
-
-## Development Environment Setup
-
-### Prerequisites
-
-* Visual Studio 2019 or later
-* Windows 10 SDK
-* PowerToys repository cloned from GitHub
-
-### Building and Testing
-
-1. Clone the repo:
-
-   ```sh
-   git clone https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys.git
-   ```
-2. Initialize submodules:
-
-   ```sh
-   git submodule update --init --recursive
-   ```
-3. Build the solution:
-
-   ```sh
-   msbuild -restore -p:RestorePackagesConfig=true -p:Platform=ARM64 -m PowerToys.sln
-   ```
-
-   > Note: This may take some time.
-4. Set `runner` as the startup project and press **F5**.
-5. Enable Light Switch in PowerToys Settings.
-6. To debug the service:
-
-   * Press `Ctrl+Alt+P` or go to **Debug > Attach to Process**.
-   * Select `LightSwitchService.exe` and click **Attach**.
-   * You can now set breakpoints in the service files.
-7. To debug the Settings UI:
-
-   * Set the startup project to `PowerToys.Settings` and press **F5**.
-   * Note: Light Switch settings will not persist in this mode (they depend on the service executable).
-   * Alternatively, you can attach `PowerToys.Settings.exe` to the debugger while `runner` is running to test the full flow with breakpoints.
