This guide provides a clear, practical overview of powertoys is now available in Windows 11 Microsoft store, with useful context, important details, and straightforward takeaways for everyday readers.

Microsoft PowerToys is basically a set of free system software utilities designed for users of the Windows operating system. The utilities included in this PowerToys can interfere relatively deeply with the operating system, thereby helping to maximize productivity or add more customizations to make using Windows simpler and more convenient. The PowerToys project has been 'covered' for many years, but was 'reborn' for Windows 10 about two years ago and received countless positive feedbacks from users. Therefore, bringing PowerToys to Windows 11 is something Microsoft should definitely do.

The modern release of PowerToys includes nine tools. One of the most recent additions is PowerToys Awake, which prevents the computer from going to sleep when needed. There are also useful tools like PowerRename for renaming multiple files at once, Video Conference Mute that provides system-wide webcam control and microphone mute, along with Image Resizer, Color Picker, PowerToys Run and many other tools.

Of course, PowerToys on Windows 11 will also come with improvements consistent with the new operating system. The new PowerToys interface builds on the Windows 11 design language, which includes more modern icons, new Windows UI controls, and improved accessibility for PowerToys users.

So far, PowerToys is only available for download through GitHub or using package managers like winget or Chocolatey. Being on the Microsoft Store will help this toolkit reach a wider audience of users.
