 ## Contributing fixes / features
 
-Please comment on [our "Would you like to contribute to PowerToys?" thread](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/issues/28769) to let us know you're interested in working on something before you start the work. Not only does this avoid multiple people unexpectedly working on the same thing at the same time but it enables us to make sure everyone is clear on what should be done to implement any new functionality. It's less work for everyone, in the long run, to establish this up front.

+In this release, we focused on stability and improvements.
 
 **Highlights**
 
- - New utility: An environment variables editor with the functionality to configure profiles that can be enabled/disabled. Thanks [@niels9001](https://github.com/niels9001) for the design and UI work that made this possible!
- - Settings has a new Dashboard home page, with quick access for enabling modules, short descriptions and activation methods. Thanks [@niels9001](https://github.com/niels9001) for the design and UI work that made this possible!
- - Added a previewer to Peek that hosts File Explorer previewers to support every file type that a machine is currently able to preview. For example, this means that if Microsoft Office handlers are installed, Peek can preview Office files. Thanks [@dillydylann](https://github.com/dillydylann)!
+ - Greatly reduced the PowerToys installed space by having utilities share the same installed path. When compared to 0.71, the 0.72 x64 machine installed version of PowerToys reduces the size reported in the Installed Apps screen from 1.15GB to 785 MB and the size in File Explorer properties for the installation folder from 3.10GB to 554 MB.
+ - Value Generator - A new PowerToys Run plugin that generates hashes and GUID values. Thanks [@IHorvalds](https://github.com/IHorvalds)!
+ - Mouse Highlighter has a new feature to have a highlight always follow the mouse pointer. Thanks [@hayatogh](https://github.com/hayatogh)!
+ - PowerRename was reworked to support a bigger number of files without crashing.
+
+### Known issues
+
+ - Due to changing paths in the installation folder, the Mouse Without Borders service might be pointing to the wrong place. Users not running as admin will have to enable service mode again after install. A toast notification will appear if Mouse Without Borders is unable to start the service correctly.
+ - File Explorer extensions changed paths might not be loaded correctly until File Explorer and Preview Host processes are restarted, so we advise restarting the computer when possible after updating PowerToys.
 
 ### General
 
- - Many typo fixes through the projects and documentation. Thanks [@brianteeman](https://github.com/brianteeman)!
- - Refactored and improved the logic across utilities for bringing a window to the foreground after activation.
-
-### Color Picker
-
- - After activating Color Picker, it's now possible to cancel the session by clicking the right mouse button. Thanks [@fredso90](https://github.com/fredso90)!
-
-### Environment Variables
- - Added a new utility: An environment variables editor that has the functionality to configure profiles that can be enabled/disabled. Thanks [@niels9001](https://github.com/niels9001) for the design and UI work that made this possible!
- - Shows in the title bar if it's running as an administrator. Thanks [@davidegiacometti](https://github.com/davidegiacometti)!
+ - Shared dependencies between applications in order to greatly reduce the installed size.
+ - Added missing icons and icon sizes. Thanks [@niels9001](https://github.com/niels9001)!
 
 ### FancyZones
 
- - Fixed an issue causing context menu pop-ups from some apps to automatically snap to a zone. (This was a hotfix for 0.74)
- - Applied the fix for the context menu pop-ups to the logic that decides which windows can be snapped.
- - Reworked the "Keep windows in their zones" option to include the work area and turn it on by default, fixing an incompatibility with the Copilot flyout.
- - Fixed an issue causing windows to be snapped while moving to a different virtual desktop.
+ - Fixed an issue where FancyZones wouldn't register a change to the "Switch between windows in the current zone" setting.
+ - Added a Setting to enable the behavior of clicking the middle mouse button to toggle multiple zone spanning.
+

- - Fixed an issue blocking some SVG files from being previewed correctly. (This was a hotfix for 0.74)
- - Fixed crashes on invalid files in the STL Thumbnail generator.
+ - Updated the Monaco dependency for Developer Files Preview, supporting new file extensions and fixing issues. Thanks [@Aaron-Junker](https://github.com/Aaron-Junker)!
 
-### GPO
+### Hosts File Editor
 
- - Added a global GPO rule that applies for all utilities unless it's overridden. Thanks [@htcfreek](https://github.com/htcfreek)!

-### Image Resizer
+### Installer
 
- - Fixed wrong .bmp file association in the registry. Thanks [@meitinger](https://github.com/meitinger)!
-
-### Keyboard Manager
-
- - Visually distinguish between the Numpad and regular period characters in the UI.
- - This utility is now disabled by default on new installations, since it requires user configuration to affect keyboard behavior.
- - Fixed a typo in the Numpad Subtract key in the editor.
+ - Refactored the Monaco dependency inclusion. What to install is now being generated automatically.
+ - Removed hardlinks and simplified the installer files, now that many utilities use the same paths.
 
 ### Mouse Highlighter
 
- - Removed the lower limit of fade delay and duration, to allow better signaling of doing a double click. Thanks [@fredso90](https://github.com/fredso90)!
+ - Added a feature so that a highlight follows the mouse even if no mouse button is being pressed. Thanks [@hayatogh](https://github.com/hayatogh)!
 
-### Mouse Jump
+### Mouse Pointer Crosshairs
 
- - The process now runs in the background, for a faster activation time. Thanks [@mikeclayton](https://github.com/mikeclayton)!
+ - Added a setting to hide the crosshairs when the mouse pointer is also hidden. Thanks [@davidegiacometti](https://github.com/davidegiacometti)!
+ - Added a setting to select a fixed length for the crosshairs, which also spans across screens. Thanks [@Epp-code](https://github.com/Epp-code)! 
+
+### Mouse Without Borders
+
+ - Switched to a UWP mouse input API to fix mouse pointer lag issues that were reported.
+ - A toast notification will appear when the service can't be started and Mouse Without Borders will try to start in non-service mode instead.
+ - Fixed a bug where the service path wouldn't update to the new binary path when trying to re-enable service mode.
+ - Fixed some grammar errors in the Mouse Without Borders user facing strings. Thanks [@KhurramJalil](https://github.com/KhurramJalil)!
+ - Allow changing the shortcuts in the same way as other utilities and changed them to better defaults to avoid conflicting with Alt Gr+letter combos on international layouts.
 
 ### Peek
 
- - Reported file sizes will now more closely match what's reported by File Explorer. Thanks [@Deepak-Sangle](https://github.com/Deepak-Sangle)!
- - Added a previewer that hosts File Explorer previewers to support every file type that a machine is currently able to preview. Thanks [@dillydylann](https://github.com/dillydylann)!
- - Fixed an issue causing the preview of the first file to be stuck loading. Thanks [@davidegiacometti](https://github.com/davidegiacometti)!

+ - Updated icon design. Thanks [@niels9001](https://github.com/niels9001)!
+ - Fixed flipped content issues on systems with RTL languages.
 
 ### PowerRename
 
- - Save data from the last run in a different file to avoid conflicting with changing settings in the Settings application.
+ - Reworked the UI and resource consumption to fix crashes and hangs when trying to rename a huge number of files.
+ - Added the Mica background material and some UI tweaks. Thanks [@niels9001](https://github.com/niels9001)!
 
 ### PowerToys Run
 
- - Fixed a case where the query wasn't being cleared after invoking a result action through the keyboard. Thanks [@davidegiacometti](https://github.com/davidegiacometti)!
- - Improved the shell selection option for Windows Terminal in the Shell plugin and improved the backend code for adding combo box options to plugins. Thanks [@htcfreek](https://github.com/htcfreek)!
-   * The implementation of the combo box items has changed and isn't backward compatible. (Old plugins won't crash, but the combo box setting isn't shown in settings ui anymore.)

-## XAML Implementation
-The KBM UI was originally implemented as a XAML Island, but in order to easily support Mica, which is [still an issue](https://github.com/microsoft/microsoft-ui-xaml/issues/5319), the [`XamlBridge`](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b3f27057d43445abc59aa04405f7c24bb895a61c/src/modules/keyboardmanager/KeyboardManagerEditorLibrary/XamlBridge2.cpp) was rewritten to use a [`FrameworkView`](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b3f27057d43445abc59aa04405f7c24bb895a61c/src/modules/keyboardmanager/KeyboardManagerEditorLibrary/XamlBridge2.cpp#L47C11-L49) object which is how a traditional UWP app behaves:
-1. A `CoreWindow` is created by [calling a function inside of `Windows.UI.dll` with an ordinal number of `1500`](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b3f27057d43445abc59aa04405f7c24bb895a61c/src/modules/keyboardmanager/KeyboardManagerEditorLibrary/XamlBridge2.cpp#L35-L42).
-2. A [stubbed implementation of `CoreApplicationView`](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b3f27057d43445abc59aa04405f7c24bb895a61c/src/modules/keyboardmanager/KeyboardManagerEditorLibrary/XamlBridge2.cpp#L10-L18) was created.
-3. Then [both objects are passed on to the `FrameworkView`](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b3f27057d43445abc59aa04405f7c24bb895a61c/src/modules/keyboardmanager/KeyboardManagerEditorLibrary/XamlBridge2.cpp#L47-L49) to initialize the XAML framework.
-4. Lastly, the `CoreWindow` is [attached to the editor window](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b3f27057d43445abc59aa04405f7c24bb895a61c/src/modules/keyboardmanager/KeyboardManagerEditorLibrary/XamlBridge2.cpp#L54-L61) and its `HWND` is used in-place of `DesktopWindowXamlSource`'s.
+## C++ XAML Islands
+The KBM UI is implemented as a C++ XAML Island, but all the controls are implemented in code behind rather than .xaml and .xaml.cs files. This was done as per a XAML Island Code sample and it didn't require a separate UWP project, which could be limited in terms of using hooks. There is a [tech debt item](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/issues/2027) for moving this to XAML. The reason it wasn't implemented in the C# Settings was because it required communication with the low level hook thread, which could be too slow if IPC is used, since the UI needs to update on every key event.
 
-Mica is then achieved by calling [`BackdropMaterial::SetApplyToRootOrPageBackground()`](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b3f27057d43445abc59aa04405f7c24bb895a61c/src/modules/keyboardmanager/KeyboardManagerEditorLibrary/EditKeyboardWindow.cpp#L388-L400) in both of the editor windows, or falls back to the `ApplicationPageBackgroundThemeBrush` background if Mica isn't available.
+**Note:** For functions which take a XAML component as argument, pass it by value and not by reference. This is because `winrt` WinUI classes store their own internal references, so they are supposed to be passed by value (and internally ref counts are incremented). Passing by reference can lead to weird behavior where the object is `null`.
 
-The UI was also updated to use WinUI 2.8 to match the look and feel of the Fluent design language of Windows 11 and the rest of PowerToys. There has been talk about [migrating the implementation to XAML files instead of code-behind](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/issues/2027) and [utilizing WinUI 3 going forward](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/issues/15870). More about the update can be read in [here](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/pull/28473).
+The windows are [created as C++ windows](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b80578b1b9a4b24c9945bddac33c771204280107/src/modules/keyboardmanager/ui/EditKeyboardWindow.cpp#L128-L140) and the window sizes are set to default by [scaling them as per DPI](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b80578b1b9a4b24c9945bddac33c771204280107/src/modules/keyboardmanager/ui/EditKeyboardWindow.cpp#L120-L126) using the `DPIAware::Convert` API from common lib. Since the UI is launched on a new thread, the window may not be in the foreground, so [we call `SetForegroundWindow`](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b80578b1b9a4b24c9945bddac33c771204280107/src/modules/keyboardmanager/ui/EditKeyboardWindow.cpp#L146-L150).
 
-[**Link to the original documentation**](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b3f27057d43445abc59aa04405f7c24bb895a61c/doc/devdocs/modules/keyboardmanager/keyboardmanagerui.md#c-xaml-islands)
+`DesktopWindowXamlSource` has to be declared and [it is initialized](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b80578b1b9a4b24c9945bddac33c771204280107/src/modules/keyboardmanager/ui/EditKeyboardWindow.cpp#L159-L162) using the [`XamlBridge`](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/main/src/modules/keyboardmanager/ui/XamlBridge.cpp), and [a second window handle](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b80578b1b9a4b24c9945bddac33c771204280107/src/modules/keyboardmanager/ui/EditKeyboardWindow.cpp#L161-L162) is generated for the internal Xaml Island window. Most of the code was based on the [Xaml Island Sample](https://github.com/microsoft/Xaml-Islands-Samples/blob/master/Samples/Win32/SampleCppApp/XamlBridge.cpp). The `XamlBridge` class contains code which handles initializing the Xaml Island containers as well as handling special messages like keyboard navigation, and focus between islands and between the C++ window and the island. It also has methods for clearing the xaml islands and closing the window.
+
+Once the UI controls are created, the parent container is set as the content for the `DesktopWindowXamlSource` and the `XamlBridge.MessageLoop` is executed. Messages are processed by the C++ window handler like [`EditKeyboardWindowProc`](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b80578b1b9a4b24c9945bddac33c771204280107/src/modules/keyboardmanager/ui/EditKeyboardWindow.cpp#L364-L404). The general structure we use for this is, for any `WM_PAINT` or `WM_SIZE` message we resize the Xaml Island window. For `WM_GETMINMAXINFO` we set minimum widths so that the window cannot be resized beyond a minimum height and width. This is done to prevent the WinUI elements from overlapping and getting cropped. If it is neither of these cases we send the message to the [`XamlBridge.MessageHandler`](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b80578b1b9a4b24c9945bddac33c771204280107/src/modules/keyboardmanager/ui/XamlBridge.cpp#L291-L301) which handles Destroy, Activation and Focus. If `WM_NCDESTROY` is received when the `XamlBridge` is `nullptr`, the window thread is terminated.
+
+**Note:** `ContentDialog` in Xaml Islands requires manually settings a `XamlRoot`. This can generally be done by passing the XamlRoot from a component in the main window, such as the button used to open the dialog ([`sender.as<Button>().XamlRoot()`](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b80578b1b9a4b24c9945bddac33c771204280107/src/modules/keyboardmanager/ui/ShortcutControl.cpp#L31-L32)). [These docs]((https://learn.microsoft.com/uwp/api/windows.ui.xaml.controls.contentdialog#contentdialog-in-appwindow-or-xaml-islands)) have more details about this.
+
+### Debugging exceptions in XAML Islands
+Sometimes if an exception occurs in XAML Islands, the stack trace may not always point to the correct code causing the exception and instead it will point to the Xaml Island message loop. In these cases the output window in VS will generally show the correct exception.
+
+### Build times
+C++ Xaml Islands generally take several minutes to build because the `pch` which contains the WinUI headers takes longer to build and compiles to a file of several GBs. To minimize the build times, multi-processor compilation within the projects have been enabled (files are distributed for compilation to the processors), and references to the Xaml headers have been removed from the .h headers files as much as possible. Since several classes of ours had class members with UI controls like `StackPanel` (which requires definitions of the classes in order to compile), we worked around this by declaring them as `IInspectable` (the equivalent of an object pointer in winrt), and initializing them to the actual control like `StackPanel` in the constructor and accessing all their member functions by inline typecasting (for `IInspectable x;` we do `x = StackPanel();` and `x.as<StackPanel>().MemberFunction()`). Check [this](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b80578b1b9a4b24c9945bddac33c771204280107/src/modules/keyboardmanager/ui/ShortcutControl.cpp#L19-L25) for this type of usage in `ShortcutControl`.
+
+### Setting custom backgrounds for Xaml Controls using brushes
+To access the brushes available on C# Xaml, it has to be done with the `Resources.Lookup` syntax:
+`primaryButton.Background(Windows::UI::Xaml::Application::Current().Resources().Lookup(box_value(L"SystemControlBackgroundBaseMediumLowBrush")).as<Windows::UI::Xaml::Media::SolidColorBrush>());`
 
 ## UI Structure
 The KBM UI consists of a [`Grid` with several columns](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b80578b1b9a4b24c9945bddac33c771204280107/src/modules/keyboardmanager/ui/EditKeyboardWindow.cpp#L200-L218).

[`SingleKeyRemapControl`](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/main/src/modules/keyboardmanager/ui/SingleKeyRemapControl.cpp) is the UI class for each row of the Remap keys table, and [`ShortcutControl`](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/main/src/modules/keyboardmanager/ui/ShortcutControl.cpp) is the UI class for each row of the Remap shortcuts table. [`KeyDropDownControl`](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/main/src/modules/keyboardmanager/ui/KeyDropDownControl.cpp) is used for handling the ComboBox operations. Each of these two classes [have vectors of unique pointers to the `KeyDropDownControl` objects](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b80578b1b9a4b24c9945bddac33c771204280107/src/modules/keyboardmanager/ui/ShortcutControl.h#L44-L45) so that references to the objects are active until the control is deleted.

All other validity checks are assumed to happen while the user adds the remapping. If this is found to be invalid a ContentDialog is displayed which shows that some remappings are invalid and if the user proceeds only the valid ones will be applied. If it is valid [`GetOrphanedKeys`](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b80578b1b9a4b24c9945bddac33c771204280107/src/modules/keyboardmanager/ui/LoadingAndSavingRemappingHelper.cpp#L46-L75) is executed which checks if any keys are orphaned (i.e. the key has been remapped and no other key has been remapped to it, so there is no way to send that key code), and a dialog is shown for notifying the user with a list of orphaned keys. After this the settings are [applied by adding it to the `KeyboardManagerState.singleKeyReMap` member](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b80578b1b9a4b24c9945bddac33c771204280107/src/modules/keyboardmanager/ui/LoadingAndSavingRemappingHelper.cpp#L102-L164) and they are saved to the JSON file. `EditShortcutsWindow` differs slightly from this, as there is no orphaned keys check, and [on pressing OK](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b80578b1b9a4b24c9945bddac33c771204280107/src/modules/keyboardmanager/ui/EditShortcutsWindow.cpp#L32-L47) both the global and app-specific shortcuts are validated and [updated](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/b80578b1b9a4b24c9945bddac33c771204280107/src/modules/keyboardmanager/ui/LoadingAndSavingRemappingHelper.cpp#L166-L223).

-# Group Policies
+# Group Policy Objects
 
-Since version 0.64, PowerToys is released on GitHub with [Administrative Templates that allows you to configure PowerToys using Group Policies](/previous-versions/windows/desktop/policy/group-policy-objects). You can get the group policy files in each release of PowerToys over at <https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/releases>.
+Since version 0.64, PowerToys is released on GitHub with GroupPolicyObject files. You can check these releases on https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/releases .
 
-For detailed instructions and notes, head over to [learn.microsoft.com](https://aka.ms/PowerToysOverview_GPO) and see the PowerToys Group Policy section.
+## How to install
+
+### Add the administrative template to an individual computer
+
+1. Copy the "PowerToys.admx" file to your Policy Definition template folder. (Example: C:\Windows\PolicyDefinitions)
+2. Copy the "PowerToys.adml" file to the matching language folder in your Policy Definition folder. (Example: C:\Windows\PolicyDefinitions\en-US)
+
+### Add the administrative template to Active Directory
+
+1. On a domain controller or workstation with RSAT, go to the **PolicyDefinition** folder (also known as the *Central Store*) on any domain controller for your domain. For older versions of Windows Server, you might need to create the **PolicyDefinition** folder. For more information, see [How to create and manage the Central Store for Group Policy Administrative Templates in Windows](https://support.microsoft.com/help/3087759/how-to-create-and-manage-the-central-store-for-group-policy-administra).
+2. Copy the "PowerToys.admx" file to the PolicyDefinition folder. (Example: %systemroot%\sysvol\domain\policies\PolicyDefinitions)
+3. Copy the "PowerToys.adml" file to the matching language folder in the PolicyDefinition folder. Create the folder if it doesn't already exist. (Example: %systemroot%\sysvol\domain\policies\PolicyDefinitions\EN-US)
+4. If your domain has more than one domain controller, the new ADMX files will be replicated to them at the next domain replication interval.
+
+### Scope
+
+You will find the policies under "Administrative Templates/Microsoft PowerToys" in both the Computer Configuration and User Configuration folders. If both settings are configured, the setting in Computer Configuration takes precedence over the setting in User Configuration.
+
+## Policies
+
+### Configure enabled state
+
+For each utility shipped with PowerToys, there's a "Configure enabled state" policy, which forces and Enabled state for the utility.
+
+If you enable this setting, the utility will be always enabled and the user won't be able to disable it.
+
+If you disable this setting, the utility will be always disabled and the user won't be able to enable it.
+
+If you don't configure this setting, users are able to disable or enable the utility.
+
+### Allow experimentation
+
+This policy configures whether PowerToys experimentation is allowed. With experimentation allowed the user sees the new features being experimented if it gets selected as part of the test group. (Experimentation will only happen on Windows Insider builds.)
+
+If this setting is not configured or enabled, the user can control experimentation in the PowerToys settings menu.
+
+If this setting is disabled, experimentation is not allowed.
+
+If this setting is not configured, experimentation is allowed.
+
+### Installer and Updates
+
+#### Disable per-user installation
+
+This policy configures whether PowerToys per-user installation is allowed or not.
+
+If enabled, per-user installation is not allowed.
+
+If disabled or not configured, per-user installation is allowed.
+
+You can set this policy only as Computer policy.
+#### Disable automatic downloads
+
+This policy configures whether automatic downloads of available updates are disabled or not. (On metered connections updates are never downloaded.)
+
+If enabled, automatic downloads are disabled.
+
+If disabled or not configured, the user is in control of automatic downloads setting.
+
+#### Suspend Action Center notification for new updates
+
+This policy configures whether the action center notification for new updates is suspended for 2 minor releases. (Example: if the installed version is v0.60.0, then the next notification is shown for the v0.63.* release.)
+
+If enabled, the notification is suspended.
+
+If disabled or not configured, the notification is shown.
+
+Note: The notification about new major versions is always displayed.
+
+<!-- This policy is implemented for later usage (PT v1.0 and later) and therefore inactive. (To make it working please update `src/runner/UpdateUtils.cpp`)
+#### Disable automatic update checks
+
+This policy allows you to disable automatic update checks running in the background. (The manual check in PT Settings is not affected by this policy.)
+
+If enabled, the automatic update checks are disabled.
+
+If disabled or not configured, the automatic update checks are enabled.
