Microsoftは本日、Windows 10/11用の生産性向上ツール「PowerToys」の最新版v0.63.0をリリースしました(GitHub)。
v0.63.0の主な新機能は以下の通りです。
- QuickAccentに、言語を選択するための新しい設定が追加。選択する必要のあるアクセント付き文字の数を減らすことができるように。
- Windows App SDK、VC++再配布可能ファイル、PowerToys Interopランタイムファイルをユーティリティ間で共有することにより、インストーラおよびインストールサイズを縮小した。インストール時に必要なUACを削減するステップとなる。
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.

PowerToysはMicrosoftのオープンソースプロジェクトで、Windows 10またはWindows 11のUIやエクスペリエンスを自分好みにカスタマイズすることができる便利なツール群を提供しています。評判や安定性によっては、PowerToysの機能がOSに搭載されることもあり、Windows 11のスナップレイアウトとスナップグループは、PowerToysのFanzyZonesツールのアイデアを取り入れたものとなっています。
