Program description
Microsoft PowerToys is a set of utilities that allow experienced users to customize and optimize the Windows 10/11 shell to improve productivity.
Main features:
PowerToys Panel – an application launcher that is called by pressing Alt + Space. Simply type the name of the application, folder or file you want to launch and select the desired object from the list of results.
Keyboard Manager – can remap individual keys as well as keyboard shortcuts. The remapping rules will only work if Keyboard Manager is running in the background.
FancyZones – a window manager that allows you to easily create complex window layouts and quickly place them in these layouts.
Keyboard Shortcut Hints – an Advisor appears when the user holds down the Windows key for more than one second and shows the available shortcuts for the current desktop state.
Advanced Rename – batch (group) file renaming. An extension of the Windows shell context menu for mass group renaming of files using a simple search and replace or using regular expressions.
Image Resize – a graphical utility for resizing one or more images via Windows Explorer.
SVG and Markdown File Preview – PowerToys adds two new features to Windows Explorer: preview of SVG images and Markdown files.
Color Picker – an “Eyedropper” utility that shows the color code of any point on the screen in HEX and RGB formats. Press Win+Shift+C to call the tool on your screen.
