PowerToys v0.89.0 released

Hi All,

I noticed that Microsoft has released a new Version of PowerToys.

In the Main Window click on “Install now”

The Release notes can be found here: Release v0.89.0

Highlights

  • Enhanced Advanced Paste by adding media transcoding support to convert different video and audio file formats!
  • Fixed crashes when loading thumbnails after the .NET 9 update and resolved PowerLauncher.exe blocking other MSI installers from creating shortcuts!
  • Fixed accessibility issues across FancyZones, Image Resizer, and Settings to improve screen reader support and clarity!
  • Enhanced UI automation framework across modules and added new tests to cover manual checks, with more improvements coming!

General

  • Fixed an issue where updating PowerToys on Windows 11 did not properly update context menu entries, impacting New+, PowerRename, Image Resizer, and File Locksmith.
  • Updated .NET Packages from 9.0.1 to 9.0.2. Thanks @snickler for this.
  • Enabled compatibility with VS17.3 and later, for C++23.
