Description of the new feature / enhancement

When I have to disable the "Keyboard Manager" module because of #1881, it vanishes in the mist of all the other disabled modules. When I want to reactivate it again, I have to look for it. If there were an option to pin it, I wouldn't have to look for it.

Scenario when this would be used?

Every time someone activates and deactivates a module frequently.

The tray icon has a flyout menu on a single click. Would that help?

Yes. If you select "More" you can find a list of all tools and you can turn them on or off. Note that only a number of tools can actually the opened in a stand-alone manner.

I know that. To be honest, I find this flyout thing with nothing to show for quite useless. Maybe it works for others, but all the modules I use frequently are not in here.

Why not add a pin or a star symbol there and put pinned/starred modules between enabled and disabled modules? Best of both worlds?

#24880 is an issue where a concept for a new, different version is coined. Curious to know what you think.

Looks less empty than now. 😉 If I can sort this thing or hide entries (and/or pin my favorite modules there 😀 ), sure, why not!

Looking forward to giving it a try!

I really don't think so. Please re-read the description. I do not want to pin to the taskbar / startmenu but inside PowerToys.

So, I guess I'll just open a new issue.
