Microsoft PowerToys v0.81.1

Windows system utilities to maximize productivity

Microsoft PowerToys is a set of utilities for power users to tune and streamline their Windows experience for greater productivity.




Current utilities:
• Advanced Paste
A tool that enables you to paste the text from your clipboard into any format needed. It can paste as plain text, markdown, or JSON directly with the UX or with a direct keystroke invoke. These actions are executed entirely on your local machine. Additionally, the tool has an AI-powered option that is 100% opt-in and requires entering an OpenAI key in settings.
• Always on Top
A system-wide Windows utility to pin windows above other windows.
• PowerToys Awake
A tool for Windows designed to keep a computer awake without having to manage its power and sleep settings. This can be helpful when running time-consuming tasks, ensuring that the computer does not go to sleep or turn off its screens.
• Command Not Found
A PowerShell 7 module that detects command-line errors and suggests a relevant WinGet package to install, if available.
• Color Picker
A system-wide color picking utility for Windows to pick colors from any screen and copy it in a configurable format to the clipboard.
• Crop And Lock
Allows you to crop a current application into a smaller window or just create a thumbnail. Focus the target window and press the shortcut to start cropping.
• Environment Variables
Offers an easy and convenient way to manage environment variables. It allows you to create profiles for managing a set of variables together. Profile variables have precedence over User and System variables. Applying the profile adds variables to User environment variables in the background. When a profile is applied, if there is an existing User variable with the same name, a backup variable is created in User variables which will be reverted to the original value on profile un-apply. Applied variables list shows the current state of the environment, respecting the order of evaluation of environment variables (Profile > User > System). Evaluated Path variable value is shown at the top of the list.
• FancyZones
A window manager utility for arranging and snapping windows into efficient layouts to improve your workflow and restore layouts quickly. You can define a set of zone locations to use as targets for windows on your desktop. When you drag a window into a zone, or use the associated keyboard shortcut, the window is resized and repositioned to fill that zone.
• File Explorer Add-ons
An existing feature in Windows File Explorer which allows you to see a preview of the file's contents in the view's reading pane. PowerToys adds multiple extensions: Markdown, SVG, PDF, G-code and QOI. In addition to those, PowerToys also adds support for source code files for more than 150 file extensions.
• File Locksmith
A Windows shell extension for checking which files are in use and by which processes.
• Hosts File Editor
Windows includes a local "Hosts" file that contains domain names and matching IP addresses, acting as a map to identify and locate hosts on IP networks. Every time you visit a website, your computer will check the hosts file first to see which IP address it connects to. If the information is not there, your internet service provider will look into the Domain Name Server (DNS) for the resources to load the site. The Hosts File Editor provides a convenient way to edit the hosts file. This can be useful for scenarios like migrating a website to a new hosting provider or domain name, which may take a 24-48 hour period of downtime. Creating a custom IP address to associate with your domain using the hosts file can enable you to see how it will look on the new server.
• Image Resizer
A Windows shell extension for bulk image-resizing. After installing PowerToys, right-click on one or more selected image files in File Explorer, and select Resize with ImageResizer from the menu.
• Keyboard Manager
Enables you to redefine keys on your keyboard. For example, you can exchange the letter A for the letter B on your keyboard. When you press the A key, a B will be inserted.
• Mouse utilities
A collection of features that enhance mouse and cursor functionality on Windows.
• Mouse Without Borders
Enables you to control up to 4 computers from the same machine.
• Peek
A system-wide utility for Windows to preview file content without the need to open multiple applications or interrupt your workflow. It offers a seamless and quick file preview experience for various file types, including images, Office documents, web pages, Markdown files, text files, and developer files.
• Paste as Plain Text
A tool that enables you to paste the text from your clipboard into any format needed. It can paste as plain text, markdown, or JSON directly with the UX or with a direct keystroke invoke. These actions are executed entirely on your local machine. Additionally, the tool has an AI-powered option that is 100% opt-in and requires entering an OpenAI key in settings.
• PowerRename
A bulk renaming tool that enables you to:
-Modify the file names of a large number of files, without giving all of the files the same name.
-Perform a search and replace on a targeted section of file names.
-Perform a regular expression rename on multiple files.
-Check expected rename results in a preview window before finalizing a bulk rename.
-Undo a rename operation after it is completed.
• PowerToys Run
A quick launcher for power users that contains additional features without sacrificing performance. It is open source and modular for additional plugins.
• Quick Accent
An alternative way to type accented characters, useful when a keyboard doesn't support that specific accent with a quick key combo.
• Registry Preview
Simplifies the process of visualizing and editing complex Windows Registry files. It can also write changes to the Windows Registry.
• Screen Ruler
Allows you to quickly measure pixels on your screen, based on image edge detection.
• Shortcut Guide
This guide displays common keyboard shortcuts that use the Windows key.
• Text Extractor
Enables you to copy text from anywhere on your screen, including inside images or videos.
• Video Conference Mute
Quickly mute your microphone (audio) and turn off your camera (video) with a single keystroke while on a conference call, regardless of what application has focus on your computer.

Supported operating systems:
• Windows 11 or Windows 10 version 2004 (code name 20H1 / build number 19041) or newer.
• x64 or ARM64 processor
• The installer will install the following items:
-Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime bootstrapper. This will install the latest version.

Changes
#32971 - Fixed Advanced Paste was being triggered by some external software when some of the hotkeys were not set. Slack's tray icon was the most common example in the issues that were opened.
#32947 - Added a GPO rule for Advanced Paste to disable AI online models usage and prevent users from entering the API key.
#33006 - Improved descriptions on Advanced Paste Settings and OOBE pages to clarify that usage of AI is opt-in and that it can be used without AI.
#32945 - Fixed the Advanced Paste settings page UX showing that it could enable/disable clipboard history when that feature is not allowed by GPO.
#30206 - Fixed PowerToys Run showing the accent color on the title bar when that option is turned on in Windows Settings.
