Microsoftは本日、Windows 10/11用の生産性向上ツール「PowerToys」の最新版v0.62.0をリリースしました(GitHub)。
v0.62.0の主な新機能は以下の通りです。
- Screen Rulerの追加。スクリーン上のピクセルをすばやく簡単に測定することができる。
- Quick Accentの追加。アクセントのある文字を簡単に書くことができる。
- Text Extractorの追加。OCRを使用して選択された領域からテキストをコピーし、クリップボードに格納する。
- PowerToy Runに過去のクエリ結果を検索できるプラグインが追加。
本バージョンには以下の既知の不具合が存在します。
- The Text Extractor utility fails to recognize text in some cases on ARM64 devices running Windows 10.
- After installing PowerToys, the new Windows 11 context menu entries for PowerRename and Image Resizer might not appear before a system restart.
- There are reports of users who are unable to open the Settings window. This is being caused by incompatibilities with some applications (RTSS RivaTuner Statistics Server and MSI AfterBurner are known examples of this). If you're affected by this, please check the linked issue to verify if any of the presented solutions works for you.
