Fix Windows errors with Fortect:
Fortect can repair common computer errors by scanning your entire system for damaged or missing OS files and replacing them with the original, working versions. Optimize your PC in 3 simple steps:

Download and Install Fortect on your PC
Use the PC Scan feature to look up any Windows issues (including drivers)
Right-click on Repair, and fix it within a few minutes.

Besides that, it helps you clean up junk files, fix stability problems, and get rid of annoying programs and malware traces.

Developers are working to bring the Windows 11 design language to Microsoft’s Open Source PowerToys utility collection.

One of those driving the update is designer and Microsoft MVP Niels Laute who posted a preview of the new look in the Settings app of the collection.

Wrapping up a PR with a new UX for #PowerToys Settings – fresh look and feel, replicating @windows 11 Settings, new @WindowsUI controls, accessibility improvements and easier to maintain :)!

The update brings new modern icons, new Windows UI controls and also accessibility improvements. Further improvements are expected when the team moves to WinUI 3, such as support for Mica transparency effects.

The visual improvements are expected to be included in the next public release of the tool.

Developers can contribute to the project at Github here.
