PowerToys freeware - The Latest Versions History
0.86.0 Nov 4, 2024 New Release Highlights:
Advanced Paste has new abilities: Image to text, and paste to file (text / png / html).
In settings, we've adjusted the left navigation to group the utilities. As the number of utilities shipped with PowerToys keeps growing, we felt this was a needed adjustment. Thanks everyone for your feedback!
Workspaces received many bug fixes, including the proper launching of many instances of the same application in the same workspace. Note, we are still actively looking at how to properly handle PWA detection.
We've added a telemetry opt-in option in the Settings General tab. As it is off-by-default, we encourage users to turn it on as that helps direct our development efforts and their journeys. More information about the data we collect can be found in the PowerToys Data and Privacy documentation and what each event does.
General:
Added a setting for telemetry opt-in (off by default, however, see above for why we encourage you to opt-in!) and user controls to view data.
Improved exception logging by adding the type of Exception and InnerException. Thanks @davidegiacometti!
Advanced Paste:
Added new built-in actions: Image to text, and paste txt, png or html as a file.
Mouse Jump:
Refactored the common classes into a separate project. Thanks @mikeclayton!
Brought back the telemetry events that were deleted across previous refactoring efforts.
Mouse Without Borders:
Refactored the Logger common classes. Thanks @mikeclayton!
New:
Fixed the telemetry event for when the modules is enabled or disabled. (This was a hotfix for 0.85)
Fixed bug when creating folders or files that contain Unicode characters. Thanks @cgaarden!
Fixed bug when the name of a new folder collided with an already existing folder. Thanks @cgaarden!
Updated the New+ icons to the fluent style.
Peek:
Folder preview enumeration of size and number of files is now more responsive and faster. Thanks @daverayment!
PowerToys Run:
Handled a culture not found error when checking for right-to-left languages.
0.85.1 Oct 7, 2024 New Release Highlights:
Fixed an issue causing Workspaces to launch the wrong project through a shortcut.
Fixed a crash when opening the New+ templates folder through the Settings application.
0.85.0 Oct 1, 2024 New Release 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.

Fixed an issue causing File Locksmith to be triggered by unrelated verbs in the context menu.
