If only Microsoft could make it part of Windows by default instead of those lucky users who discover what PowerToys needing to submit their request to corporate IT and enduring either incredulity or dumb jokes about the naming.

Gatekeeping as "power user features" is silly, it's 2025 and many of these features have been built-in on other operating systems for a decade or more.

True, but one of the reasons that PowerToys can innovate and iterate so freely is not being tied to mainline Windows and all the enterprise and backward compatibility baggage that comes with.

		This. I would rather have them be a small independent team that can test and break things instead of having to comply to a big bureaucracy. I think they brought them back to compete with the newer macOS features. It's working and I hope they keep iterating until it is much better.
