Microsoft PowerToys is a set of utilities for power users to tune and streamline their Windows experience for greater productivity. Inspired by the [Windows 95 era PowerToys project](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_PowerToys), this reboot provides power users with ways to squeeze more efficiency out of the Windows 10 shell and customize it for individual workflows. A great overview of the Windows 95 PowerToys can be found [here](https://socket3.wordpress.com/2016/10/22/using-windows-95-powertoys/).

### PowerRename
|
||||
|
||||
<img align="left" src="./doc/images/overview/PowerRename_small.PNG" />[PowerRename](/src/modules/powerrename) is a Windows Shell Extension for advanced bulk renaming using search and replace or regular expressions. PowerRename allows simple search and replace or more advanced regular expression matching. While you type in the search and replace input fields, the preview area will show what the items will be renamed to. PowerRename then calls into the Windows Explorer file operations engine to perform the rename. This has the benefit of allowing the rename operation to be undone after PowerRename exits. This code is based on [Chris Davis's SmartRename](https://github.com/chrdavis/SmartRename).

👉 **Note:** Microsoft PowerToys requires Windows 10 1803 (build 17134) or later.

### Other install methods

|
||||
##### MSIX / Store Build Update
|
||||
|
||||
- We put in a lot of effort here but currently our plan of record is to make the MSI our only installer option and built-in auto-upgrade. MSIX is a great installer / container tech but there are few spots we are working with the team to improve so we can adopt.

#### Via Chocolatey - ⚠ Unofficial ⚠
|
||||
|

Download and upgrade PowerToys from [Chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org).
