Microsoft PowerToys: 10 Features You NEED To Enable for Windows 11!

[@Productive_Tech]

I've heard that by pressing the LIKE button a hidden option will become present in PowerToys, allowing you to increase the performance of your PC by 10X :D

[@SteveMacSticky]

So by extension, if we press the unlike button, we will degrade our PC performance by 10x I guess.

[@Productive_Tech]

I can confirm you are 100% correct there

[@CesarPeron]

PowerToys is an official Windows tool, meaning its features are designed for Windows. Unfortunately, Windows 'spaghetti source code' is such a mess that they were never able to integrate these features, which could truly take Windows productivity to another level

[@Productive_Tech]

Interesting, thanks for the info! :D

[@Hasheemdev]

I have powertoys for more than a year but some of the options here i never saw, time to update my powertoys i guess Thanks for the video

[@Productive_Tech]

Ah great to hear and thanks for the comment! Glad that it was useful, it's one of those apps that keep evolving

[@sarthak-chatterjee]

Great content! Keep them coming. Could you please make a video on setup of a fresh windows install. Would be good to know your take on bloatware removal and usage of non-microsoft

[@Productive_Tech]

Thanks so much! I've already made a video that is similar to what you might be looking for which is a comprehensive guide on windows settings that you need to change after a fresh install of windows 11 if you want to check that out on the link below. But yeah for a full installation of stuff like bloatware and other things I'll add it to my list of topics to consider. Thanks for the suggestion. :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKaTko2loN-FnJI

[@RedCrafter07]

There actually is a program for power toys Run to integrate with everything. It's open source too. Great video btw!

[@Productive_Tech]

Ah ok I wasn’t aware of that, will have to check it out. Thanks for the comment! :D

[@Rood67]

Do tell, please.

[@seireiart]

0:38 I tend to turn off this because It caused me memory leaks on many occassions

[@Productive_Tech]

Hmmm, I haven't checked how much RAM power toys uses (or when using this feature in particular) but haven't had any issues in my experience just yet. Thanks for sharing! :)

[@FPL_worm]

powertoys has been an absolute game changer for me since I've downloaded it!

[@donmabood]

bro can you suggest me a 100% free vpn for pc with high speed. also a app for checking internet speed always like a overlay. you are doing great. keep it up.

[@Productive_Tech]

Hey man appreciate the comment and kind words. Though I personally don’t use a VPN as it’s not something I need on the networks I use so wouldn’t want to give a bad recommendation. However for the overlay thing you mentioned there is an app you can get called TrafficMonitor, not sure if this exactly what you’re looking for but allows you to get a taskbar icon as well as some overlays for your internet speed. You should get the GitHub page if you search it on Google. Hope that helps

[@mmsic]

I don't now what to comment but commenting anyway 😅

[@SteveMacSticky]

Me too

[@Productive_Tech]

Hahaha lol XD, I appreciate the comments!

[@TazzSmk]

aand I deleted again quickly, because it breaks functionality in most games (Assassin's Creed, Plague Tale etc...) and I wasn't able to figure out which module of PowerToys hijacks certain keyboard combinations

[@Productive_Tech]

Interesting, I've never personally had an issue with key binds and other shortcuts with power toys installed but yeah that would be pretty annoying.

[@TazzSmk]

@Productive_Tech I can only guess PowerToys lack ability to bypass games (fullscreen and windowed) so keyboard combinations like shift/ctrl/alt/space/enter override/intercept ingame functionality :/

[@Productive_Tech]

@@TazzSmk Ah ok I get you, I think if there was a way of somehow disabling power toys from a single button or something (probably too much effort to implement though) then that way it could be toggled on the fly when you want it on or off...

[@anshul00747]

PDF preview is not enabled because it conflicts with the Quicklook app.

[@Productive_Tech]

Interesting, I haven't had any issues regarding that personally but thanks for sharing 👍

[@joelab.c]

Which laptop is this

[@Productive_Tech]

It's the Dell XPS 15, I have made a full review of it after using it for 3 years in this video link if you want to check it out :D kzbin.info/www/bejne/oF7KaKGdYsibp6M

[@deshraj-tiwari]

Wait. Why do I like ur channel. TF.

[@guiyihuang7555]

Hi, can I contact you? I would like to recommend a tool.

[@Productive_Tech]

Hi there, I’m currently working on getting something set up for this (feel free to check the channel bio in the coming weeks as I should have an email there soon). In the meantime feel free to reply to this comment if it is suitable for you. Thanks 👍

[@ChikyuuKun]

I don't get PowerToys, like why can't Microsoft just incorporate those features into Windows instead?

[@Productive_Tech]

I think it's to do with the stability of the tweaks but yh I would agree that there are quite a few tweaks that are stable and useful enough to implement right away.

[@frohenleid]

Not just that but power toys has community created content where rights, security and service are more complicated. It's all safe and all but the OS is held to different standards.

[@Productive_Tech]

Thanks for the great comment and in depth reasoning 👍

[@Hi-HK]

👍👍

[@Productive_Tech]

Thanks!

[@johnjacobsen4003]

So they made W11, a stupid POS garbage crap OS, and now a tool to make it run better? F... M$. I still enjoy my good ol' Win7, lol!.

[@Productive_Tech]

Windows 7 was actually polished to a better degree then that of windows 10 or 11 launches. Win 11 still has some work to do
