    Add FancyZones CLI for command-line layout management (#44078)

    <!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
    fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
    -->
    ## Summary of the Pull Request
    Adds a new command-line interface (CLI) tool for FancyZones, enabling
    users and automation scripts to manage window layouts without the GUI.

    **Commands:**
    | Command | Aliases | Description |
    |---------|---------|-------------|
    | `help` | | Displays general help information for all commands |
    | `open-editor` | `editor`, `e` | Launch FancyZones layout editor |
    | `get-monitors` | `monitors`, `m` | List all monitors and their
    properties |
    | `get-layouts` | `layouts`, `ls` | List all available layouts with
    ASCII art preview |
    | `get-active-layout` | `active`, `a` | Show currently active layout |
    | `set-layout <uuid>` | `set`, `s` | Apply layout by UUID or template
    name |
    | `open-settings` | `settings` | Open FancyZones settings page |
    | `get-hotkeys` | `hotkeys`, `hk` | List all layout hotkeys |
    | `set-hotkey <key> <uuid>` | `shk` | Assign hotkey (0-9) to custom
    layout |
    | `remove-hotkey <key>` | `rhk` | Remove hotkey assignment |

    **Key Capabilities:**
    - ASCII art visualization of layouts (grid, focus, priority-grid,
    canvas)
    - Support for both template layouts and custom layouts
    - Monitor-specific layout targeting (`--monitor N` or `--all`)
    - Real-time notification to FancyZones via Windows messages
    - Native AOT compilation support for fast startup

    ### Example Usage

    ```bash
    # List all layouts with visual previews
    FancyZonesCLI.exe ls

    # Apply "columns" template to all monitors
    FancyZonesCLI.exe s columns --all

    # Set custom layout on monitor 2
    FancyZonesCLI.exe s {uuid} --monitor 2

    # Assign hotkey Win+Ctrl+Alt+3 to a layout
    FancyZonesCLI.exe shk 3 {uuid}
    ```

    [CmdPal] Optimise MainListPage's results display by merging already-sorted lists (#44126)

    ## Summary of the Pull Request
    This PR replaces the current LINQ-based results compilation query of
    combining, sorting and filtering the four result sources with a 3-way
    merge operation plus a final append. It provides a performance increase
    as well as a significant reduction in allocations.

    ## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
    The existing code:
    1. Limits the number of apps returned to a pre-defined maximum.
    2. Sorts the apps list.
    3. Appends filtered items, scored fallback items and the apps list
    together.
    4. Sorts the three lists based on their score.
    5. Appends the non-scored fallback items, with empty items excluded.
    6. Selects just the `Item` from each.
    7. Creates an array from the enumerable.

    ```csharp
        if (_filteredApps?.Count > 0)
        {
            limitedApps = _filteredApps.OrderByDescending(s => s.Score).Take(_appResultLimit).ToList();
        }

        var items = Enumerable.Empty<Scored<IListItem>>()
                              .Concat(_filteredItems is not null ? _filteredItems : [])
                              .Concat(_scoredFallbackItems is not null ? _scoredFallbackItems : [])
                              .Concat(limitedApps)
                              .OrderByDescending(o => o.Score)

                              // Add fallback items post-sort so they are always at the end of the list
                              // and eventually ordered based on user preference
                              .Concat(_fallbackItems is not null ? _fallbackItems.Where(w => !string.IsNullOrEmpty(w.Item.Title)) : [])
                              .Select(s => s.Item)
                              .ToArray();
    ```

    We can exploit the fact that each of the three 'scored' lists are
    pre-ordered, and replace the query with a 3-way merge and final append
    of the non-scored fallback items.

    By pre-sizing the results array we can avoid all the extra allocations
    of the LINQ-based solution.

    ### Proof of pre-ordering
    In `UpdateSearchText`, each of the lists is defined by calling
    `ListHelpers.FilterListWithScores`:

    ```csharp
        // Produce a list of everything that matches the current filter.
        _filteredItems = [.. ListHelpers.FilterListWithScores<IListItem>(newFilteredItems ?? [], SearchText, scoreItem)];
    ```

    ```csharp
        _scoredFallbackItems = ListHelpers.FilterListWithScores<IListItem>(newFallbacksForScoring ?? [], SearchText, scoreItem);
    ```

    ```csharp
        var scoredApps = ListHelpers.FilterListWithScores<IListItem>(newApps, SearchText, scoreItem);

    ...

        _filteredApps = [.. scoredApps];
    ```

    In `FilterListWithScores`, the results are ordered by score:

    ```csharp
       var scores = items
            .Select(li => new Scored<T>() { Item = li, Score = scoreFunction(query, li) })
            .Where(score => score.Score > 0)
            .OrderByDescending(score => score.Score);
    ```

    (This also makes the existing `OrderByDescending()` for `_filteredApps`
    before the LINQ query redundant.)

    ### K-way merge
    Since the results are pre-sorted, we can do a direct merge in linear
    time. This is what the new `MainListPageResultFactory`'s `Create`
    achieves. As the lists may be different sizes, the routine does a 3-way
    merge, followed by a 2-way merge and a single list drain to finish. Each
    element is only visited once.

    ### Benchmarks
    A separate benchmark project is
    [here](https://github.com/daverayment/MainListBench), written with
    Benchmark.net.

    The project compares the current LINQ-based solution against:
    1. An Array-based algorithm which pre-assigns a results array and still
    sorts the 3 scored sets of results. This shows a naive non-LINQ solution
    which is still _O(n log n)_ because of the sort.
    2. The k-way merge, which is described above. _O(n)_ for both time and
    space complexity.
    3. A heap merge algorithm, which uses a priority queue instead of
    tracking each of the lists separately. (This is _O(n log k)_ in terms of
    time complexity and _O(n + k)_ for space.)

    Care is taken to ensure stable sorting of items. When preparing the
    benchmark data, items with identical scores are assigned to confirm each
    algorithm performs identically to the LINQ `OrderBy` approach, which
    performs a stable sort.

    Results show that the merge performs best in terms of both runtime
    performance and allocations, sometimes by a significant margin. Compared
    to the LINQ approach, merge runs 400%+ faster and with at most ~20% of
    the allocations:

    ### Cons

    1. Existing performance is not currently an issue. This could be seen as
    a premature optimisation.
    2. The new code introduces an inherent contract between the results
    compilation routine and the lists, i.e. that they must be sorted.

    This PR was really for research and learning more about CmdPal (and a
    bit of algorithm practice because it's Advent of Code time), so please
    feel free to reject if you feel the cons outweigh the pros.

    <!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
    wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
    ## Validation Steps Performed
    - Added unit tests to exercise the new code, which confirm that the
    specific ordering is preserved, and the filtering and pre-trimming of
    the apps list is performed as before.
    - Existing non-UI unit tests run. NB: I _could not_ run any UI Tests on
    my system and just got an early bail-out each time.
    - Manual testing in (non-AOT) Release mode.

    I noticed the double "active" line around the items when the ListPage is
    focused. I was unable to find where that is defined. Ideally, the
    black-border would go away.

    I tested with AOT turned on.

    The behavior accounts for suggestions. If the SearchBar is focused and
    there is a suggestion, right-arrow will [continue] to complete the
    suggestion.

    Update WinAppSDK to 1.8.3 (#44146)

    <!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
    fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
    -->
    ## Summary of the Pull Request
    This pull request updates several dependencies to newer versions in the
    `Directory.Packages.props` file. The main focus is on upgrading the
    Microsoft Windows App SDK packages to ensure the project uses the latest
    features and bug fixes.

    Dependency version updates:

    * Upgraded `Microsoft.WindowsAppSDK`,
    `Microsoft.WindowsAppSDK.Foundation`, `Microsoft.WindowsAppSDK.AI`, and
    `Microsoft.WindowsAppSDK.Runtime` to their latest respective versions,
    replacing previous 1.8.25* releases with newer builds.

    Improve install scope detection to prevent mixed user/machine installations (#43931)

    <!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
    fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
    -->
    ## Summary of the Pull Request
    The old implementation checked
    `HKLM\Software\Classes\powertoys\InstallScope` first. If this key
    existed (even as a remnant from incomplete uninstall), it would
    immediately return `PerMachine` without validating the actual
    installation.

    ### Fix
    - Uses Windows standard Uninstall registry (most reliable source of
    truth)
    - Identifies PowerToys Bundle by exact `BundleUpgradeCode` GUID match
    - MSI component entries (always in HKLM) are automatically ignored since
    they don't have `BundleUpgradeCode`
    - Checks HKCU first, then HKLM, properly handling the fact that Bundle
    location reflects true install scope

    ## Summary of the Pull Request

    SettingsUtils is initialized multiple times over the whole solution.
    This creates one singeltone instance (with the default settings), so it
    only has to be initialized once (and improve performance a bit with
    that)

    Using centralized package management for vcxproj (#43920)

    ## Summary of the Pull Request
    This pull request updates the build system for several native and
    managed projects, modernizing NuGet package management and improving
    code analysis configuration. The main changes involve switching from
    legacy `packages.config` and manual `.props`/`.targets` imports to
    PackageReference style for native projects, updating package versions,
    and streamlining code analysis settings.

    **Build system modernization and package management:**

    * Migrated native projects (`PowerToys.MeasureToolCore.vcxproj`,
    `FindMyMouse.vcxproj`) from legacy `packages.config` and manual
    `.props`/`.targets` imports to NuGet PackageReference style, simplifying
    dependency management and build configuration. This includes removing
    the `packages.config` file and related import/error logic, and
    introducing `PackageReference` items for required packages.

    [ImageResizer] Fix Fill mode not cropping image when Shrink Only was engaged and scale was 1 (#43855)

    ## Summary of the Pull Request
    This PR fixes an Image Resizer issue where **Fill** mode operations were
    silently aborted when **Shrink Only** was enabled (the default) and
    scale was 1.0 on one dimension, resulting in files that were renamed
    according to the intended target size but which actually contained the
    original, unmodified image.

    This also fixes a latent bug regarding square images and the **Ignore
    Orientation** setting, and improves the readability of the core
    `Transform` method.

    ## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
    ### Fix **Shrink Only** logic preventing the correct cropping of images
    **Issue:**
    When using **Fill** mode, the scaling factor is calculated based on the
    larger dimension to ensure the image fills the target box. In scenarios
    where one dimension matches the target and the other overflows (e.g.
    shrinking a 100x100 pixel image to 50x100), the calculated scale factor
    is `1.0`.

    The previous `ShrinkOnly` logic included this:

    ```csharp
    if (_settings.ShrinkOnly
            && _settings.SelectedSize.Unit != ResizeUnit.Percent
            && (scaleX >= 1 || scaleY >= 1))
        {
            return source;
        }
    ```

    This correctly prevents `ShrinkOnly` operations from returning upscaled
    result images, but it also exits too early for cases where the user is
    cropping the image across one dimension only, leaving the other at scale
    1. Effectively, the later cropping code is never run and instead of
    returning the cropped image, the original is returned. The _intended_
    target dimensions are correct, which results in the filename parts not
    matching the resulting image size.

    **Fix:**
    The logic has been split between upscaling and cropping, so:

    1. If the scale on either dimension is > `1.0`, return the source
    (explicitly preventing upscaling for **Shrink Only** mode).
    2. If the scale is <= `1.0` then check if the original dimensions exceed
    the target dimensions. If a crop is required, proceed with it even if
    the scale is exactly `1.0`.

    ### Fix for square images triggering orientation swap
    **Issue:**
    The "Ignore Orientation" check in the original code used a compound
    boolean check:

    ```csharp
    (originalWidth < originalHeight != width < height)
    ```

    This clever but less than readable statement detects orientation
    mismatches. The section also includes a logic issue. When the original
    image was square, `originalWidth < originalHeight` evaluated to `false`,
    treating it as Landscape. If the target dimensions were Portrait, the
    logic detected a mismatch and swapped the target dimensions incorrectly,
    which would crop the height instead of the width.

    'Fortunately' this bug was masked by the first bug, as the crop code
    would never be reached anyway.

    **Fix:**
    The orientation detection routine was refactored to explicitly check for
    Landscape vs. Portrait states. Square images are now naturally excluded,
    as they have neither Landscape nor Portrait orientations. This now
    prevents the dimensions from being swapped.

    ### Refactoring/readability
    The main `Transform` method has been cleaned up:

    - Replaced widespread use of `var` with `double` and `int` for dimension
    and scale calculations.
    - Replaced the non-obvious XOR orientation check (`a < b != c < d`) with
    named booleans (`isInputLandscape`, `isTargetPortrait` etc.) to make the
    intent more self-documenting.
    - New and expanded comments throughout.

    <!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
    wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
    ## Validation Steps Performed
    Three new unit tests have been added to `ResizeOperationTests.cs` to
    cover the **Fill** mode edge cases:

    1. `TransformHonorsFillWithShrinkOnlyWhenCropRequired`: Verifies than an
    image requiring a crop but no scaling is processed correctly (tests that
    the original bug report is resolved).
    2. `TransformHonorsFillWithShrinkOnlyWhenUpscaleAttempted`: Confirms
    that when `ShrinkOnly` is set, any upscaling operations are still
    blocked.
    3. `TransformHonorsFillWithShrinkOnlyWhenNoChangeRequired`: Verifies
    that the system returns the source if neither scaling nor cropping is
    required.

    I also manually verified the bug fix with a test 4000 x 6000 pixel
    source file with 1920 x `Auto` **Fill** mode and **Shrink Only**
    settings, mirroring the original user's settings, and their source and
    target dimensions.

    CmdPal: Add configuration option for Escape key behavior (#43354)

    ## Summary of the Pull Request

    This PR adds a new option to the **General** page in **Settings**:

    Escape key behavior — a dropdown with the following choices:

    - Clear search first, then go back
      - Current behavior.
      - If the search box contains text, it is cleared; otherwise goes back.
      - On the home page, CmdPal is dismissed.

    - Go back
      - Leaves the search text intact.
    - If the page is not transient, the search text reappears when
    returning.
      - On the home page, CmdPal is dismissed.

    - Hide window and go home (Always dismiss)
      - Immediately dismisses CmdPal and navigates to the home page.
      - Ignores the **Go home when activated** setting.
      - Search text is cleared.

    - Hide window
      - Just hides the window.
      - Intended to be used with #43355.

    This implementation preserves existing behavior, except for **Always
    dismiss**, which always forces navigation to the home page.

    Add semantic headings to Dashboard page for accessibility (#42438)

    ## Summary

    Fixes #37668 by adding proper semantic heading structure to the
    Dashboard (Home) page, enabling screen reader users to navigate the page
    efficiently using heading shortcuts.

    ## Problem

    The Dashboard page lacked semantic heading elements, making it difficult
    for users of assistive technologies to understand the page structure and
    navigate between sections. When using screen readers with heading
    navigation (H key in scan mode), no headings were announced, violating
    WCAG 2.2 Success Criterion 1.3.1 (Info and Relationships).

    ## Solution

    Added `AutomationProperties.HeadingLevel` attributes to provide proper
    heading hierarchy:

    1. **Dashboard Title** - Marked as Level 1 (H1) heading
    - Added `AutomationProperties.HeadingLevel="1"` to the "Home" page title
       - Follows the same pattern as `SettingsPageControl.xaml`

    2. **Card Titles** - Marked as Level 2 (H2) headings
    - Added `AutomationProperties.HeadingLevel="Level2"` to the Card
    component
    - Applies to all card sections: "Quick Access", "Shortcuts Overview",
    and "Utilities"
       - Follows the same pattern as `SettingsGroup.xaml`

    ## Resulting Structure

    ```
    H1: Home (Dashboard Title)
    ├─ H2: Quick Access
    ├─ H2: Shortcuts Overview
    └─ H2: Utilities
    ```

    ## Impact

    - Screen reader users can now use heading navigation (H key) to jump
    between sections on the Dashboard page
    - Provides proper document structure that follows WCAG 2.2 Level A
    guidelines
    - No visual or functional changes - only accessibility metadata added
    - Consistent with existing accessibility patterns used throughout the
    Settings UI

    ## Testing

    - Changes follow existing patterns in `SettingsPageControl.xaml` (Level
    1) and `SettingsGroup.xaml` (Level 2)
    - Only XAML accessibility attributes added - no code logic changes
    - Minimal, surgical changes: 2 lines across 2 files

    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

    Restore missing "Quick access" menu item in tray icon context menu (#42676)

    ## 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:**

    ![Expected
    menu](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/805b1436-5a08-42e7-a34d-b9848fd9a235)

    **Actual menu (before this fix):**

    ![Actual
    menu](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/7584035d-e893-4f73-acc3-84d789e31e81)

    ## 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

    CmdPal: Find app for WinGet package (#43943)

    <!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
    fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
    -->
    ## 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.

    [AOT] Refactor SettingsLib/SettingsUI for Native AOT compatibility (#42644)

    <!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
    fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
    -->
    ## Summary of the Pull Request

    Key Changes:

    1. Settings.UI.Library:
    - Added SettingsSerializationContext.cs with comprehensive
    JsonSerializable attributes for all settings types
    - Updated BasePTModuleSettings.ToJsonString() to use AOT-compatible
    serialization
    - Updated SettingsUtils.GetFile<T>() to use AOT-compatible
    deserialization
    - Modified all ToString() methods in Properties classes to use
    SettingsSerializationContext
    - Converted struct fields to properties in SunTimes and
    MouseWithoutBordersProperties for serialization compatibility

    2. Settings.UI:
    - Fixed namespace alias in SourceGenerationContextContext.cs to avoid
    conflicts

    For any future developers who discover incorrect settings resolution,
    please follow up my changes to add your setting type into
    JsonSerilizerContext.

    Bump our telemetry package version (#44015)

    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).

    ## 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.

    CmdPal: Fix grid views (#43991)

    ## 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.

    CmdPal: Add custom search engine option to Web Search extension (#43941)

    ## 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"

    CmdPal: Add mini dev center (#43939)

    ## 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.

    CmdPal: Use Shell API to determine the default browser in WebSearch (#43339)

    ## 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.

    CmdPal: Add option to return to home automatically after a delay (#43551)

    ## 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.

    Update Command Palette's Learn More string to be consistent with other utilities (#43898)

    <!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
    fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
    -->
    ## Summary of the Pull Request

    In the PowerToys "What's new" window, every utility has the text "Learn
    more about <utility name>" next to the "Settings" button. Examples
    below:

    <img width="247" height="38" alt="learnmore-fancyzones"
    src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/fecdeb4b-e01c-438d-8d11-c056e613768e"
    />
    <img width="258" height="40" alt="learnmore-textextractor"
    src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ffb0c801-5b89-46d1-b493-b57287303e65"
    />

    The only exception is the Command Palette utility which just says "Learn
    more".

    <img width="152" height="32" alt="learnmore-cmdpal"
    src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/232c11cd-b621-46eb-87f1-d3fc708d6286"
    />

    This is an inconsistency and this PR fixes that string.

    Module Loader tool for rapid testing of modules (#43813)

    ## Summary of the Pull Request
    ModuleLoader tool, a stand-alone Win32 executable for testing of
    PowerToy modules without needing branch builds.

    sample output from running the tool is below:

    .\ModuleLoader.exe .\powertoys.cursorwrap.dll

    Note that this doesn't integrate with Powertoys settings UI - this is
    purely to test Powertoys module functionality.

    CmdPal: Improve Command Palette behavior in "Last position" mode (#43543)

    ## 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.

    ## 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.

Date:   Tue Nov 18 14:22:03 2025 +0800

    Fix OOBE Mouse Utilities crash by correcting localization key (#43664)

    <!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
    fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
    -->
    ## 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: replace cziplib with tar.exe (#41127)

    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.
