Translating it as `控制键` in Simplified Chinese or `控制鍵` in Traditional Chinese makes the Find My Mouse activation options harder to understand. PowerToys localized resources are generated through the CDPX localization pipeline, so this PR expands the translator comments for both the left and right Control activation strings. The English values, resource keys, settings schema, UI tests, and runtime behavior remain unchanged. ## Validation Steps Performed - Parsed the modified `Resources.resw` successfully as XML. - Verified both affected Find My Mouse entries contain Simplified and Traditional Chinese guidance. - Confirmed the diff changes translator comments only and passes `git diff --check`. - No build or automated tests were run because this is a comment-only localization guidance change with no runtime impact. --------- Co-authored-by: Yu Leng (from Dev Box) <yuleng@microsoft.com>
