honestly, #PowerToys should be included in a default #Windows11 installation.

Any idea what this new @windows error is all about? Due to #powertoys? Due to the latest #visualstudio preview?

PowerToys 0.90.1: Atualização resolve problemas com instalação WinGet https://tugatech.com.pt/t65589-powertoys-0-90-1-atualizacao-resolve-problemas-com-instalacao-winget
Is it my age?
Nearly every time (like 99% of the time) when I go for the apostrophe on my keyboard, I instead hit the semi-colon. There's a muscle memory in there which must have been learnt - I only hit the right key if I'm directly thinking about it, therefore the key must have moved or migrated further from the "L" at some time in the past when I got a new keyboard...? Perhaps it's linked to plate tectonics?
A simple fix I'm now trying (which I should have thought of a lot earlier!) is to remap the keys in Power Toys and swap the physical keys over.
Will update later if it works!

В #PowerToys добавили ИИшницу для #OCR и и преобразования текста. Радостно! (#НаСамомДелеНет).
@technotim @changelog @adam The one area where I'm 1000% with Adam WRT Windows versus Mac is launchers.
He uses Raycast whereas I still prefer Alfred (logging every invocation creeps me out. Sorry @raycast I'm sure you're amazing :) but there really is NO analogue on the #Windows side.
There's Powertoys launcher, and that has the makings of one, but you have to dig DEEP to find workflows to use with it and IF you do the digging and find the FLOSS project it was before MSFT adopted it, you'll see that you'd need to write workflows in C# or some other .Net language and that, near as I can tell, there are very VERY few extant.
It does seem like #MSFT are putting money and effort into #Powertoys however:

So that's good news!
If you’re a fan of PowerToys Run, you’ll absolutely love the upcoming Windows Command Palette module.

Hay diferentes formas de escribir el guión largo (—) en #windows. La forma más sencilla/rápida que he localizado utilizando software que ya tengo instalado, ha sido con la potente herramienta #powertoys.
Simplemente he añadido un acceso directo desde la uitlidad *Administrador de teclado*.
Otra alternativa es utilizar un software denominado [Wincompose](https://github.com/samhocevar/wincompose) que he descubierto esta tarde en un toot de @brucknerite.
