PowerToys 0.85.0 Oct 1, 2024 |
Highlights: New utility: New+ - allows setting a personalized set of templates to quickly create files and folders from a File Explorer context menu. Thanks @cgaarden! Language selection - it's now possible to select which UI language should be used by PowerToys utilities. Lots of quality fixes for Workspaces, improving the number of supported applications. Reduced Peek memory usage by fixing image leaks. Thanks @daverayment! General: Added a general setting to select which UI language should be used in PowerToys utilities. Fixed internal code of some policies for Group Policy Objects, that were reading registry entries using the wrong internal functions, and structured code better to avoid future mistakes of the same kind. Thanks @htcfreek! Advanced Paste: Fixed some telemetry calls to signal Advanced Paste activation on the cases where a direct shortcut is being used without showing the UI. User-defined custom actions can only be used with AI turned on, so custom actions were disabled on Settings when AI is disabled and were hidden from the Advanced Paste UI. Awake: Fixed tray icon behaviors, not appearing and showing incorrect time. Thanks @dend! Environment Variables Editor: Added the _NT_SYMBOL_PATH, _NT_ALT_SYMBOL_PATH and _NT_SYMCACHE_PATH as variables that are shown as lists. Thanks @chwarr! FancyZones: Allow snapping applications that were launched by Workspaces. File Locksmith: Fixed an issue causing File Locksmith to be triggered by unrelated verbs in the context menu. Mouse Pointer Crosshairs: Allow crosshairs radius to be 0 pixels. Thanks @octastylos-pseudodipteros! New: New utility - Allows setting a personalized set of templates to quickly create files and folders from a File Explorer context menu. Thanks @cgaarden! Added missing entry for New+ policy state reporting in the Bug Report tool. Thanks @htcfreek! Added a policy for enabling/disabling whether filename extensions should be shown. Thanks @htcfreek!

PowerToys 0.84.0 Sep 3, 2024 |
Highlights: New utility: PowerToys Workspaces - this utility can launch a set of applications to a custom layout and configuration on the desktop. App arrangements can be saved as a workspace and then relaunched with one click from the Workspaces Editor or from a desktop shortcut. In the editor, app configuration can be customized using CLI arguments and "launch as admin" modifiers, and app window sizes and positions can be updated as desired. This is our first public version of Workspaces and we are excited for you to try it out for yourself! Make sure to file issues you encounter on our GitHub so the team can continue to improve the utility. Known issues - the team is actively working on fixing these: Apps that launch as admin are unable to be repositioned to the desired layout. Border of "Remove" / "Add Back" app button in editor is not clearly visible on light themes. Added Awake --use-parent-pid CLI argument to attach to parent process. Thanks @dend! Added custom actions - user-specified pre-defined prompts for the AI model. Additionally, actions (both standard and custom) are now searchable from prompt box and Ctrl + number in-app shortcuts are now applicable for first 9 search results. Ported all C++/CX code to C++/WinRT as part of a refactor and upgrade series aimed at enabling AOT (Ahead of Time) compilation for enhanced performance and reduced disk footprint. General: Added DSC support for ImageResizer resize sizes property. Advanced Paste: Added custom actions - user-specified pre-defined prompts for the AI model. Additionally, actions (both standard and custom) are now searchable from prompt box and Ctrl + number in-app shortcuts are now applicable for first 9 search results. Awake: Added --use-parent-pid CLI argument to attach to parent process and fixed issue causing tray icon to disappear. Thanks @dend! Hosts File Editor: Fixed save failure when the hosts file is hidden. Thanks @davidegiacometti! File Explorer add-ons: Fi |
